    Keith Has Time For A Run of PMG Skis

    Hey, y'all. I was talking to Keith and his calendar is open in September if a consensus of one model of Bros he could make 30 pairs of could be reached. I know everyone has a preference. Personally, I'd love to see one of the shorter models made, like a 183 fat or the 184 Bya. But if you guys decide it's 186s or whatever and want to figure out what it would be, I'm still on my feet enough to get Keith to make them.

    Tee-shirts are too complicated, let's make some skis instead.

    Lol.. glad to hear you are on the mend splat!

    You can sign me up for a 183 Fat to compliment my original AK 183s if things go that way. FKNA.

    I assume we're talking Keith from Praxis, or Keith Richards from the Rolling Stones.

    Not really on the mend. Just haven't hit the worst of it yet.

    Cool!
    Another round!

    I'm ski fat and money skinny so I might just be eagerly watching this round.
    Lot of good options though.

    Bya could be good; while I haven't skied them yet, I picked up what might be the last unmounted pair and they hand flex nicely.
    Kusala for those that missed the repress?
    Big Bro? (always wanted to ski that one; maybe almost flat camber).
    I liked the 187 Fat and regret selling that one.
    How about a Lhasa Pow skinny? (@112mm)

    Heal up Splat.

    The og 186 lhasa with the same tail treatment as the praxis lhasa fat with perhaps slightly less pin by a few mm would be pretty sweet.

    Jay... I think there are multiple factors Why a run of skis by Praxis is manageable, while the shirt project just became problematic -

    I am certain when splat recovers his health, shirts will again be produced ( Maybe ...face will even take the project ) ;

    Good luck with this splat -
    fifteen pages of design modification proposals drove me a little crazy in 2019, but I love my PMG skis ! !!


    I Am sorry to hear you are anticipating worse before an improvement in your health... ( more +++vibes+++ To You, my friend )

    Not saying I'm old, but that's not a bad idea.

    Agree with this. I love the Lhasa in soft snow and especially trees -- but the pin is just a bit too much for harder snow.

    195s or 190.... That SuperBro had a run at the Blossom factory in Italy & was open mold. Hart Fuelie Boss (same ski) was also produced there. I'm certain they could take 5cm off for us. Not looking to scoop Splat's mojo stoke with Keith, just saying that it is rather easy to advance.

    Someone with way too much time on their hands should put together a spreadsheet of all the different PM gear models and their dimensions, I can't keep the names straight

    I need some piss-off money, but that is a very intriguing proposition. I'd rather have a ski like that come out of the blossom factory anyway (no offense to Keith at all).

    Maybe you mean you'd like to see the 191 Lhasa in a 186?
    If dropped in length using the same dims, the radius shortens and it would be quite a ripper.

    Coming right up....

    However, I do believe the tail dims changed on the 191 since this was made.

    I thought the original 188 BRO was the gold standard

    Clearly in the minority, but I'd go in for a pair of 184 Bya's.
