Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

comprex, didn't think the jury was out at all? I thought it was well considered not to be dry friction?

 Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

under a new name, I haven't read anything within the last 5 years on it, so you may well be right; I remember some rather odd micro needle results.

Odd because the theory explaining those results (refreeze of frictional water) seemed to mimic on a nanoscale something we've experienced on a macroscale in the special circumstances of really, really wet manmade snow on a cold day.

Have a look through the montages here on LeMaster's site and you'll see what I mean.

I'm couldn't find any other threads on this, so I'll drop this one in. Following another thread, I've been watching the Skiers Edge demo clips on their website, which got me thinking that it trains you to do crossunders more than crossovers.
Are the GS racers in the pics above using a crossunder, crossover, or a mix of the two? Which is best for recreational carving arc to arc turns on piste? (Looks to me like theres a bit of both, but probably more crossunder than normally taught in ski school even at fairly advanced levels...)
