I wanted to branch off of the homade ski at 41off thread. I was wondering if some of you guys thay have nuilt skis could explain your process a little and where you get and what materials you use. Its my off season now so was thinking of building one. Thanks for all the help.

@eleeski i would love to see your setup. I might start looking at a san diego trip this winter. In the other thread you said to take a factory ski and use a grinder and superfill. Is that a special epoxy or "bondo"? I do auto body work and that "bondo" I wouldnt think would hold I

up.

I'm sure homemade ski's are based on production ski's with small tweaks thrown in. I made my own standup jetski this last winter. Based the mold off of another jetski, modified the things I wanted changed, and vacuum bagged the entire thing. It's light, strong, cheap, and works well. The cloth/resin parts aren't that hard. I'm curious what these guys are using for core though and how they are shaping it.
