    Anyone? The fellow wasn't offering mag discounts. Doing so would seem to be a no-brainer.

    We've used the MountainFlow Eco Snow Shed a little bit. Our bottle is a few years old, but I think it does help. Nothing night/day, but I think it helps. Great company too!

    I bought some when it was first advertised and used it a few times and didn’t notice a huge difference. Perhaps I’ll give it another shot this year. I’m sure it helps if you apply it every day before you leave the house but I’m not sure that’s realistic for me.

    Anymore I just keep an old hotel key card (or something similar) in my pocket and scrap the snow off when I notice it starting to build up.

    My skis live in my garage, which is pretty warm. But, to get to the best bc skiing in the area (Silverton/red mountain or telluride/Ophir areas) its ~1hr drive. And the skis ride in a box on the roof.
    Wouldn’t they cool off by the time I start climbing?

    I meant a negative x2. I believe this was meant as sarcasm as warm skis melt the snow then ice can form attracting more snow. Spraying stuff on the top sheet doesn’t help. Having cold skis and cold snow will prevent snow from sticking to them. Some sort of coating won’t prevent the sun from warming the ski enough to attract snow.

    Think of it as training weight, or scrape it with your pole.

    Pretty surprised that nobody has suggested furious masturbation yet? All the FWT Pro's knock out a batch onto their topsheet to ensure nothing sticks to it. Just picture some Husky Latin Women and get to work.
