    I thought the same thing as you when I pasted it in there.

    nope definately a heel shim, I was worried that I'd manage to torque the toepiece out while skinning if I removed the toe shim, so I put a small shim under the heel and used longer screws, it accomplished the same result as removing the toe shim. Only problem is the heel might be a tiny bit sloppier but I never noticed it with AT boots. Now that I've switched back to an Alpine boot that has a wedge under the heel inside the boot, I really didn't need the shim anymore so I took it off.

    Hope that helps



    oh yeah and nice work with the list!

    OK. weighted a few of my skis:

    2003/04 Stöckli Stormrider DP
    186 cm; 123/91/111 mm; radius on ski 26,3 m; 4428 grams

    2005/06/07 Karhu Jak BC
    186 cm; 124/90/113 mm; 3616 grams

    Völkl Explosiv (Maroon Buddha)
    190 cm; 120/95/112 mm; 4236 grams

    Though all skis are drilled and somewhat used, so new skis will most likely be somewhat heavier (espicially the DP).

    And Sticky, PLEASE!!!

    Armada JP vs. Julien from last season in 188 cm (I think, both for specs and year) 126/103/116 mm.

    A pair weights 3723 grams, provided a pair of Salomon S912 TI weights 1980 grams.

    And bump for sticky...

    I am definitely putting together a backcountry rig...

    '03 Atomic Big Daddies+ mounting plates+ alpine trekkers+ Lange plug boots= 35+ Lbs of baddness up, but goodness on the way down.

    I'm also getting in great shape lugging all that crap (grin).

    Nice list, however I think there is a problem with the base area.

    they look to all be around 20 cm^2...that cannot be right. Take a 100 mm waist, 180 cm ski. Completely ignoring the extra area on the tips and tails, that is 10 cm * 180 cm = 1800 cm^2. Did I miss something about the measurement?

    The calcs are off by a factor of 100. But since its all relative - no big deal.

    Ill double check some things
    could be one of my formulas for estimating the base area.
    Itll be in the next update, whenever that is.

    Thanks!

    I've been thinking of posting this for a while, now I had some spare time so I printsc'd my excel spreadsheets of ski geometry.
    All numbers are measurements of one ski.

    I'll explain the norwegian if there is something you don't understand:

    Modell= name of ski
    år=year
    så lgd=length
    kr lgd=length without tips (running length)
    bt lgd=back tip length
    ft lgd=front tiplength
    f ski=front ski length
    b ski=back ski length
    %=percent mounting point
    tot%=percent with tips
    bak=reference width back ski
    midt=width mid ski
    fram=reference width front ski
    tupp=widest tip width
    R=meters turning radius
    bt ar=back tip area
    kr ar=runing length area
    ft ar=front tip area
    tot ar=total area
    bt=back tip height
    ft=front tip height
    sp=camber
    bak=thickness thinnest at back
    midt=thickness thickest middle
    fram=thickness thinnest front
    gr=weight (of one ski)
    gr/cm²=weight/total base area

    freeride skis:



    bc jib skis:

    that is one impressive spread sheet

    how did you calculate your areas?
    is your camber measurement of just one ski on a flat surface or base to base?

    the camber is one ski towards a flat surface.
    the area of the ski is the rectangle-the two circle segments+the area of the tips. i use different formulas for the tips, according to shape. as you can see in the spreadsheet I add and subtract a bit to compensate for unusual shapes.
