See, I think this is the aspect of living in the Great White North I could not handle. It's seems over, you are ready for it to be over and then you get 16.5" of fresh snow.

Mr. Arly, tell us about your CC Skis. Suspect that might be a popular discussion topic considering your interests?

I had a good set of waxable skis 30...(no 50!)...years ago, and they were just coming out with fish scale technology that didn't impress me. We moved south and I lost context. Now we're home in the north for good.

Likely the ski technology has advanced considerably since the 70's!

What's the current technology for skis and boots? What might you suggest?
