They must be special "ski-weighing" scales? And just thrown in for free? Well, I read that they are natural fish scales. They partnered with local fishermen located near their ski factory. But I also heard they might be quite expensive in the USA because of the new tariffs that will free the USA to...

I assumed this was an April fools joke, its real?

Well, to that point it does not really matter anymore. What I see is that it started a new discussion in the Rabb and the FTX. Classic TTalk thread drift

Finally, Asnes finally decided to add scales to their XCD/ Alpine touring skis. Unfortunately it only briefly appear on their website as someone probably leaked the breaking news a bit too early. Let's keep an eye on this exciting decelopmenr

I know this isn't the early morning spring conditions you're talking about, but I feel the s-bound 98s are so great at turning that it's worth it to struggle through the slightly less ideal conditions when its a little colder to get to this. This is BC-NNN setup with Alpina Alaskas. Apologies for m...

My absolute favorite is the Asnes Kongsvold. For me it's great for kicking and gliding and pretty easy to turn. Under the right conditions or technique it's possible to do parallel turns. With no metal edge probably wouldn't be great when it gets icy. RabbitEars Interesting take on the Kongsvold th...

Areyoutele It feels like this is the kind of question I asked myself a couple of years ago and I kind of gave up on chasing that elusive skis. Sorry if I kind of burst your bubble ;) I am just about the same height and weight as you and I have many Asnes skis so I think i can be of some help... I h...

Martin, wishing you the best in the Marathon! May your skis grip on the kick, and slide on the glide. May your edges be enough on the turns, and your downhill speed just a little faster than you planned while staying right side up! If you manage photos, that will be great! I sure hope we get a repo...

Martin, aren’t you going to be skiing harder to Telemark skis this year??? Not that I think you needed to mention the turn to post about this event! I hope Mother Nature treated you well this season! I look forward to reading about this event. That includes your preparation, any news you can post d...

Also I wonder just what is up with all the voodoo talk about the various versions of Asnes mid-width skis and their magic? It seems like there is cult worship about what they do in various subtley different snow conditions. To say the least it ends up being a bit confusing. I think some models are ...
