 Poster: A snowHead
|
Been watching the moguls over the weekend and today and some of the skis look like they have lights in the bases, most probably just a day glow paint job and the bright lights.
Anyone know if they are lit or just reflections?

ansta1, pretty sure it is just the bright base reflecting off the snow. You can see it in resorts.

Never known mogul skis (in fact any skis) to have lights in the bases, but who knows what the 'cool kids' are doing nowadays..!!

Don't know about the Sochi moguls, but my skis have bright orange bases and make the snow glow orange. Several sH have commented on this, when on bashes.
and afaik, nothing is phosphorescent or radioactive

It would probably be technically possible. K2 used to make a ski (the K2 Four) which had a little light built in which would activate to show some kind of internal piezo electric dampening device was working. That was on the top - but you could probably put something similar in which would shine through translucent base material.
