I have been old fashioned in the sense of no helmet, no music, and no bluetooth earpiece while I have been skiing. I had an old helmet that didn't fit well so it sat in the closet. When we...
In March of ‘12, DSJ got a call from Tom Tanner, manager at Ski Pro Mesa/Tempe, AZ asking whether myself and my wife Karen would like to be part of a promo trip to Red Mountain Resort, BC. After...
My biggest caution: I don't know how on earth they are measuring these things. A 183 barely measures 180. I would have purchased a longer pair online had I known this.
But this is the only...

Local Rossi rep. said that Radicals have 0.7 / 3 edges, but he was not sure. Is he right?
As I tune all my families skis (4 pairs) myself, I would like to be sure.

Regardless of what manufacturers claim that their "factory" bevel settings are, ALL skis, ALL models work extremely well with a 1 degree base bevel and a 3 degree side bevel.
Set the angles that best suit your skiing style and type of snow. The factory angles are only a guess at what won't bother most skiers. 3 & 1 is an excellent start. Maybe .75 or .7 on the bottom except 1° toward the tip & tail. Maybe 4° on the sides if you're very good at carving on ice.
