pvc is easier on skis but you're likely to take chunks out of it and cause 'hang ups'. Metal is rough on skis but will last for ever. dunno bout lexan..

Id go with lexan if I where you, or sheet metal yeah not pvc. PVC is alot cheaper but alot less durable.

lexan is pricey though, plexiglass from what im hearing works pretty well

I came up with a good rail plan using PVC I think I am gonna try next weekend. When the PVC wears out, simply unbolt it, get some new PVC, and bolt that down. It costs you like 5 bucks each time.

high carbon or stainless steel.. its more expencive but a billion times better.

pvc and lexan wont last very long unless you'v got no edges.

dont use aluminum or any other soft metal... I found out the hard way.
