@pissnu_skis and I have spent the past few days working on our prototype and we would like to officially announce our ski brand. Our skis are made of 100% Pine so we do not pollute the environment. They are hand made in Zermatt, Switzerland by a team of former Red Bull athletes. Ladies and gentlemen, I present the Splinter 213 edgeless:

Foreword pressure looks like it might be a bit too high. Make sure you bring them to a shop to be properly tested by a certified tech.

They’re meant to be affordable for sure! You can find them at your local ace hardware or Home Depot. Wont be ditch snapping any time soon, they’re legit made for picnic tables- out of picnic tables.

Actually on average 4.8 billion tons of carbon dioxide are released every year due to deforestation. Plus like another 2 million for the saw mill so I’d recommend going and cutting a tree down yourself, or just take someone’s deck apart
