While in flight school and living in Milton, FL during Christmas of 1983 I helped my neighbor Bruce Bolton deice his pool. Yes, it did snow a little. I lived on Easy Street back then!

I still like that style of vest! Doesn't hold as much water. I still wear a Jet Pilot A-10 in my rotation of vests.

@lpskier Depends on boot type. I tried orthotics inside my Vapors but found it changed how the the boot released. Probably fine for a true hard shell. I shimmed under the plate to find the amount of cant needed. Wasn't a good long term fix as stress cracks the plate in a fairly short time. Placing the cant between the boot and plate has worked the best for me.

I am very bow legged also. I built my own. To find your shim angle buy some plastic door shims for pretty cheap at Menards, Home Depot, etc. Drill screw holes in them matching the binding plate holes. Mount up the shims perpendicular to the bindings to try them out. You will need slightly longer screws on the thicker sides. I ended up at 1/4" thickness. From there I bought some 1/4" starboard. Could have used 1/4" plastic cutting board also at Walmart, etc. I then traced my boot shapes out on the plastic with a yellow crayon, cut the shape, then ground the angle on a sanding table. Lastly, I drilled the boot holes and mounted them up between the plates and the boots. Works great for me.

Huh, I was sure it was a Hortonectomy tool, although I doubt it could provide the Newtonian force required to overcome the gravitational pull of such a large object inserted into such a small event horizon in his space/time continueum

I always have a chuckle when I see those ads for rare skis blah, blah, blah! They seem to like wood Maha's because the logo was burned into the wood. Sand em down, refinish, and good to go. Only $1.7 trillion for a limited time...... Same ones are still there years later.

Oh, I've had a few unique skis from Eddie like a black RS-1 and a Senate Pro posing as a Vapor etc. In this case though I just forgot about the "Lithium Edition" label.

I stand corrected. My apologies! I did not remember it called the Lithium Edition.

I believe so.

The 2016 was just the Vapor. Great ski! Don't think the Pro or Lithium stuff started until 2017 and were just core material differences.
