Baller_ The_MS Posted September 19, 2018 Baller_ Share Posted September 19, 2018 Stop the press. I just read that Horton Ordered a ski. I am assuming there was no pay pal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted September 19, 2018 Author Administrators Share Posted September 19, 2018 @ms some stray came to my house and demo-ed a ski and wanted to keep it. Since I never sell (profit from) the skis that ski companies send me, all the $ went to Radar and I get to order a new one. Win/Win Of anyone wants to come to Bako and try my 66" Pro Build let me know.

Baller C5Quest Posted September 24, 2018 Baller Share Posted September 24, 2018 @Horton. Was your initial review a 67? Anyone use the short/deep fin numbers but move Bf closer to 29 5/8s or 29 15/16 on a 66? I struggle with getting over the front of the ski. I know it’s probably all bad form but like to move up further to help out a little bit. Closer to 29 3/4 might be pushing it but I’ll have to experiment and see where I fall on my face I guess.

Lobonator Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 @C5Quest I'll have to check my numbers, but I was having a similar issue. And I am pretty sure Andrew at McClintocks moved my boot back a touch to force me to get over the front. Might be something to look into if you're trying some different settings. I'll get back to you with my numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller C5Quest Posted September 25, 2018 Baller Share Posted September 25, 2018 Thanks. You mean move forward? I’m interested in what you have. Actually I’m running numbers that Matt Rini gave me. They aren’t quite long/narrow or short/deep but 29 5/8 on the front binding. There is a point you go too far and either bury the tip or over compensate and get on the tail even more.

Baller perfski Posted September 25, 2018 Baller Share Posted September 25, 2018 From demo'ing in the shop....we use Matt's numbers and have had pretty good luck with our customers. From these settings however we find many customers end up pushing the boots forward to engage the tip of the ski. I'm sure if you reach out to Matt, send him a video of you skiing via text he will offer suggestions. If you want to go short / deep... Trent's numbers I believe are on the factory site. Sorry this isn't an exact answer, but hopefully some suggestions. @Swini_Skis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller C5Quest Posted September 25, 2018 Baller Share Posted September 25, 2018 I’m running close to: FD 2.465 FL 6.940 DFT .775 Wg 9 deg Bf 29 5/8 These are #s Rini gave me to try. They are between both suggestions on the Radar site. They work well but like I said will try moving forward on the Bf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
