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 :-)

Evening all!
Am looking to purchase some second hand Atomic GS 11's (2006?) and the ski base has some slight discolouration on the brand lettering on the P Tex (white bit), I'm assuming it's some graphite wax staining? Should I be concerned? Any pointers greatly received

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

Given you'll be paying buttons for an 11 year old ski, having a base at all is a bonus. Don't look like they've had a hard paper round - no ptex patches.

So true
and thanks. I've not really looked at the bottom of a set of skis for 30 years due to always hiring, but now self drive seems to be the order of the season I can see myself getting a little collection back together and getting ptex burns on my fingers!
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Nothing a bit of a wire brush and dettol can't resolve! Though you'd think with something as 'thin and fast' as these the stains would be at the back!!
