I skied 4 mornings this week. The snow has been very cold. Yesterday it was -20C (-4F). Today -18C (0F). Slow, transformed snow. Like sand paper. br /br /Snow is forecast for Friday night prior to the race. Snow is forecast for race day. Overnight low of 23F is forecast and race time temp is forecast to be 26F. The weather forecast has changed every hour all day. Some models show mixed rain, sleet and snow for Saturday. Other models show just snow. br /br /Here is my current view. Pick a pair of skis, if you have a choice, that are not too stiff and with a medium grind. If you need to add a structure, use a fairly fine interupted rill. Apply the rill after waxing and just before the application of the fluoro. I am going to condition the base with a layer of SOLDA Performance Green. I will follow this with F40 Red and finish with HP04. The Green is to harden the base a bit and the F40 red for good glide in the new snow. br /br /Low wax budget? Go with layer of UF7 and follow with F15 Pink or F31 Pink. UF7 alone could be a good choice. br /br /Should there be a significant change in forecast I will repost here Friday night. br /br /Have a good race. br /br /Bertdiv class=”blogger-post-footer”img width=’1′ height=’1′ src=’https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6589659500745667109-2614854733315727464?l=www.webskis.com%2Fwebskisblog.html’ alt=” //div
