Lady friend is looking at this as a possible replacement for her Omecarve 10s.

This is a Decathlon brand, yes? We haven't tested them, but one of the main manufacturers will be responsible for making them. Find out who this is and what they've based it on and you'll be able to make a comparison. Probably easier to go into your local shop and see what they've got...

I'm off to the pet shop to boil up a few guinea pigs. Mind you, they weren't fast enough skiers to escape the Conquistadors so maybe I should get whatever they used instead.

Rendered Inca fat is quite difficult to get hold of these days.

fallliner,
Fast enough skiers? They didn't even have the wheel.

Exactly - a straight thing is easier to make than a round one.
And Rob - rooting around in the back of the Fall Line cupboard what do I find! A tub of Inca fat! Just shows the last time we cleared out. There's even a name on it... Texcouatlylhummingbirdweirdlinesthatwerecertainlyaspaceshiplandingplatform. In cuneiform.

A friend has just bought a pair and is very happy with them, particularly at the price.
We didn't have great conditions last week to try them out, but they did what he wanted.
