Nice video.
Quick query. I've always thought that riding rails must trash your base and edges. Is this so and if so why do people do it with their own nice skiis?
Last time I put the big board over rails I popped off the end and my friend shouted back to me "COOL! Sparks!"
Base was ok but oh, my poor edges... I now reserve rails for my pre-detuned noodle PoS 2nd-hand board with pre-detuned.

Michael B, Rails don't trash skis, they're amazingly strong. They won't up your bases either. If you can't ski rails you'll catch your edge a lot, that will ruin them if they rip out the ski.
spud, Yeah they're a bunch of Finnish guys, sponsored by Atomic.
So if you're just off somewhere snowy come back and post a snow report of your own and we'll all love you very much

Rails don't blunt the edges?
You know it makes sense.

Of course they do, but they don't break them, and it's not as if these guys are working about carving.
Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:

Hardly blunt them at all, and eventually they will break them.

Having watched that, you kind of wonder how to go about breaking an atomic smoke

rails certainly dont damage the base, and if your hitting street rails you'll already have detuned your edges. Snowboard manufactures make there edges on jib boards with a beveled edge as well so you can keep the edge sharp but not catch an edge on rails and boxes, i would guess that ski manufactures do exactly the same
I hate watching crash video's, dont like seeing what might happen

If we get a decent fall here in the UK this year, I'm tempted to take my park skis up to the skate park

I have numerous pairs of Park skis that beg to differ, there is a reason they use different Petex in the bases of Park skis and put edge armour on them! A slight raise on a rail or a nick can do significant damage to the base of a pair of skis. As a Park skier you just have to learn it happens
