WTU:Fat solly jig

**cpj.slc** · 11-15-2006, 05:54 PM

Any maggots in SLC have a really wide Solly jig I could use for about fifteen minutes? I got some Praxis 185 Powders they are so sweet I just don't trust anyone else to mount them for me. So if you have a jig I could borrow that would be cool and I would be happy to compensate you the going rate (six pack or whatever).
Thanks

I have the old fat jig. I don't know if it will fit Praxis Powders but you can try it. If you don't find a jig by Friday, shoot me a pm because I'm coming down from Boise this weekend and could bring it.

Are the Praxis a full reverse sidecut ski ala spatula or do they have some straightness/normal sidecut underfoot ala EHP193 etc.

praxxis are spat-like. full reverse camber. and sick.

the reg fat jig might come close w/o the rubber fit.

my custom super fat jig only just barely fits a 138, but fit fairly easily over the praxxis.

and yes, the praxxis are fucking sweet. very impressed by theri construction. sick skis.

Thanks for the thought on the regular wide jig. You have a custom super fat jig? Dude, you have to be the biggest gear head on here.

They are completely flat underfoot!!! N much more forgiving than spat's in non-pow situations; in fact they kill the spats in all situations!!!

blasphemy!!!!!!!!

**Jasonskis420** · 11-25-2006, 07:36 PM

I agree, they are much better than spats in almost every situation

My praxis shows Monday!!

Jason420 and Jonnyski, what did you two end up mounting on them?

I am contemplating the NX21, what do you think? I am hesitant because the binder feels so high off the ski and I have heard other say the spat was best mounted low.

Don,
The Nx21 sounds like a sick binding for fat backcountry skis and I am jealous of you if you get them. I have a pair of Praxis prototypes from last yesr that are mounted with S-14's and this year I haven't decided what I am going to mount yet, I have a pair of older S-17's that I am strongly thinking about putting on my new praxis this year. I mounted a pair up for a buddie with a high din marker race binding. Anyway you got the best idea a touring binding that can hold up skiing would be best-
Jason

Thanks for the input broski.
