    Christmas came early

    I got sick of waiting for Santa. Fortunately another fat man has paid me a visit:

    Here's the big picture:

    Mount is large Naxos, +2. For those thinking of mounting these yourself, there is a "boot center" and "+2" text already on the ski as mount points.
    I can't friggin wait.

    awesome

    hows the flex on those?
    camber?

    where was +2 in relation to chord center?
    cause those still look a tad rear if not just about right.

    Flex is stiff as hell. Camber appears to be around 1.2cm at the widest part when tips and tails are touching. +2 is roughly 12 cm back from chord center. I agree about the mount, I'd go a little farther forward if anything. I think Naxos always give the impression that the mount is farther back due to the large heelpiece which extends aways down from the end of the boot.
    It's still back there with a boot on:

    Here it is next to the other two, a 184 Bandit XL and a 178 Legend 8800:

    12cm back from CC sounds and looks about right.

    Merry Christmas!
