    I was waxing my 3yo's 80cm skis the other night and because of how long it took I honestly thought to myself "I can actually think of one good thing about Rax!"

    ...but I forgot about the fins.

    Yes the perfect tool. I feel like I’m violating the first rule of fight club talking about Rax.

    Totally got caught snapling a pic of these guys at Schweitzer last Friday.
    a positive attitude will not solve all of your problems, but it may annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I've ridden the chair with those guys before. Not Rax but some short skis that sold in the eighties. They were convinced (or trying to convince me) that they're the greatest skis in the world. I don't remember the brand name but they're available on eBay or other sites. Whatever, guys...

    pretty sure those are scorpian skis, the story I heard was they were made in the 80s to make tree skiing easier or something.

    Yep, that's what they are. Good recall.
