    Ski Tuning and Waxing

    Not at all. If you just MUST, then rather than rounding the edge, ease up the base angle a bit, starting just forward of where the edge, when tipped, will begin biting into the snow, say taking a 1° base angle to 1.25°. (Not suggesting you do those angles, just trying to make my meaning...

    Ski Tuning and Waxing

    CH3 is super hard wax for very cold conditions. I use it as an additive to other waxes as it holds up really well on abrasive snow. The powder form makes it way easier to iron than the drips you get with CH4. This is quite a haul. Can't fathom why they sold this for so little.

    Winter Weather 22/23

    That's what I counted on and why I went on a sunny weekend. Skied enough that I'm still tired today. (I had hoped to ski today I but it just wasn't happening when the alarm went off this morning.)
