Wait. You don't have...

15 new pairs of skis....do you?

Either way, I will be cheering you on your path to 150. And like I said, some 2020 new new that, after 150 days, might interest you.

Went to work on getting some skin glue off my Steeples today (how the fuck do you get g3 glue off your bases without it going into the base btw??) and noticed something funky with my rocker.

I bought them in 2015 and have ~100 days on them. I don’t remember them looking like this when I stored them for the summer. They were stored upright on the tails with a volie strap near the binding.

I remember something like this happening with renegades back in the day but I can’t recall seeing anyone else post about this here.

This is really odd. I thought I felt something weird on my first day last weekend. Like the skis were tracking differently. Has anyone else experienced this with your on3ps?

Use a dedicated base cleaner, or citrus adhesive remover.

What are you seeing w the rocker? Describe it, it's not obvious in the pics

**ASmileyFace** · 10-17-2018, 05:02 PM

Just checked with a tape. The left ski in the pictures has about 2mm more rocker than the other in the tip and just slightly more tail rocker as well.

I guess it shouldn’t affect performance much with such a minimal difference but I was kind of shocked when I noticed it.

Holy shit! 2mm! I'm making ski fence and I guess I'll take em off your hands.

All yours since they are completely worthless now.

But really, I probably over reacted. I just haven’t seen rocker deform like that on my own skis before.

I had a pair of 174 steeple 102s and I noticed the unequal rocker too, yours have white and green top sheets? That's weird if it wasn't just a one time thing

I've never seen skis camber or rocker change just sitting, though I always store skis in their natural state (so camber not depressed). Even so, cannot think of a reason that would affect anything here. I've seen skis bend with over-the-handlebar type crashes before into heavy snow, but pretty rarely.

Veneer 102s. But same vintage as the green and white top sheet.

I freaked out when I noticed it because it thought that I had somehow stored them incorrectly too. I never noticed it while skiing

No crazy falls or anything like that. They have been stored naturally up until this summer where I used my volie strap because one of my breaks broke.

Hard to say. Never heard of skis changing in anyway in storage, but if it continues changing or you find it is really altering performance, let us know.

Thanks Iggy. I’ll let you guys know either way with an email.
