 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
I just bought a pair of Zag purist lights on eBay to use as a light touring ski. They are a very rockered ski, with the front rocker coming almost to where the front of the binding would be. I noticed that the rocker is slightly different between the ski, meaning one tip sits slightly above the other. I've owned and skied quite a few pairs of skis, but I've never experienced this before. Do people think this could be a problem or noticeable?

Sounds a bit suss but I doubt it'll make a noticeable difference unless one ski is actually compromised. What's the difference?

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

The rocker is consistently higher, and at the tip the difference is in the order of a cm or two.

ravik, those are obvious blems & you've been well stiffed. And seeing as I'm a decent guy who doesn't like to see a fellow skier loose out I'll give you £25 for 'em.

Doesn't look right to me. Have you checked the serial numbers match? i.e. They are actually a pair out of the same mould? If they're out of Zag warranty, send them back to the supplier.

Have you tried skiing these see how the feel? Im wondering how much you'd notice it?
Im no expert but I think even if skis are pressed in the same mould they can sometimes come out with slight camber variations depending on things like heat differences..... can't see how they'd pass quality control with this much of a difference though.

Ive just checked the serial number, and they match. I might just email Zag, with the serial number and see if they can tell me anything about it. I haven't skied them yet because they are not mounted, if i did mount them I don't think I would have a case if i did want to return them to the supplier. If I do ski them I'll post an update.
