  1. I don't love them for actual use while skiing but I've seen solid styrofoam balls on a course that i believe turned out to be fish/crab trap markers. Kinda felt like hitting with a boat or ankle would suck a little.
  2. I should be getting an order from them first part of the coming week, I've ordered from them many times over the years and they were always pretty good but it's usually every 2nd or 3rd year I need stuff. Might(????) have changed hands recently? Can't remember for sure,
  3. E15 has been mumbled about quite a few times over the years, as far as I recall no one that builds a motor for anything, from a chain saw to a boat or a pick up truck has ever approved of using it.
  4. That one skier who's never ready when it's their turn, changes from street clothes to suit instead of showing up in a suit, takes 20 minutes to figure out where their gloves are and another 10 to get into bindings.......
  5. At the end of the day it's up to you, there's a hundred plus ways of getting hurt skiing, most of them you can't predict or control, but if you can't ski without clinchers or a power vest it gets even more complicated. Plenty of guys with back issues are quite happy their powervest, plenty of husky guys get a lot of benefit from the clincher style gloves, it's up to tou to weigh the risk/reward.
  6. Clincher was the brand name of the fist version of these gloves, there's a dowel sewn into a strap at the end of the middle 2 fingers, the strap runs down to the wrist wrap, i think both masterline and radar make a version now, pro lock maybe? Usually see bigger guys use them to help with grip especially for deep water starts. The risk could be an extra half second before the handle is gone during a crash,
