K so i had the spur of the moment idea. Im goin to hood this summer and ive noticed that all the hood thugz are reppin the skinny rockered skis. So i thought to myself, im pretty hood, i need some rockered skiny skis cuz my chopstick are just way to wide! So i took my brand new volkl walls and drove my truck on them to give em sum rocker. So far its working pretty well. i just wanted some other opinions.

Pretty good idea hey.

Yep, poor guy.
All his beautiful formatting in his posts went to waste when it didn't work.
Tragic, really.

Idk, my friend and I were dicking around making stuff out of skis so we decided to grab the tips of some really old rossi's and make some skiblades.
We made a thread about it but i don't think it was a tutorial per-say

You kids are all young punks, so you wouldn't remember a time, where kids would put straight skis in the fireplace and bent them to make twin tips. I commend your efforts kid. Try heating them next time.
