Mail for help.Help!!

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 :-)

Masque, with the price of my skis last year I've arranged to have them looked after by heavily armed Swiss guards stored in a specially constructed and secure room Cool

D G Orf, you'd hire Varangian marauders to guard a harem. Swiss guards fer cryin out loud.

If you use a teflon wipe each night then that inhibits rusting as well as making your wax last a little longer. Fairly cheap too.

As as said on a prev posting - as regards storing skis under bed - that space is full of guns and bows and swords hehehe

comprex, well the skis are in Switzerland, so Swiss guards are easier to get and more honest than others I could use Laughing

Zardoz notwax (although you can get sachets of liquid wax impregnated wipes) was tested by myself on the last EOSB. It really did seem to work, I used the pad to give my skis a wipe at the end of each day. Pretty cheap anyhow and a damn good moisture repellant. http://shop.store.yahoo.com/snowshack/zardoz-notwax.html has a description also.

beanie1, I've been using the Zardoz wipes on my skis at Xscape to help protect from the additional wearing affect of the artificial snow & the poma mat. Seems to work very well. I'll bring one with me on Mon for you try & it will help protect those new planks.

If you're buying Zardoz off Ebay, be sure it is the RUSTBLOCK formula. The early stuff has no water-displacement properties at all.

If you store your skis as ise does, bases up, try putting the Zardoz on the night before and having it soak into the LF overnight.

spyderjon,

Thanks for the wipe - I used it on my skis last night and no rust at all! Where do you get them from?

 You know it makes sense.

beanie1, Call Ronnie @ Kandie Imports on 01324 861 296. I also use them on my bases, on top of the wax.

Put those silica gel sacks in your ski bag, failing that get some packs of those washing powder tablets, prick a couple of holes in the packet and chuck them in the bag - any moisture will be soaked up by the tablets.
