I have seen this on many people's reversos.

Rainey has an .pdf of his Hammerhead mounting template here. [edit]I added the .pdf as an attachment, because things might change at RD, now that Russell has sold the company. So people... where are the other templates you promised? 270388-HH_Template.pdf

-
not as suck as you Doesn't work like the old chat though. I don't think I can join in with mIRC back to java that trys to crash my 'puter. Oh well.

I do. Of course my "quiver" is two pairs. I agree with most everything said above. I like tail clips, (G3 system has served me well, as has lou dawson's rat-tail), I like wall to wall, I like shaped. Big reason for shaping skins is if you have lots of sidecut, and you are trying to edge your way up a refrozen side hill. You are mostly on the flared out part of your skis, and the skins don't have much chance to stick if they aren't cvering that area. Course the best solution to that problem is straight skis The tool for cutting that comes with most of them is a letter opener! An exacto blade works nice too. Measure twice, cut once, and use the freaking template if you are doing the tail piece for the G3/GlideLite skins. BTW, skins don't really glide all that well, so giving up grip for glide is kind of silly IMHO - skins are for going UP! If you want grip and glide, then it's probably time to break out the wax! What DustinB wondered, about buying a skin slightly narrower than you tip dimension, is not only OK, it'll make the whole trimming thing a little easier. Nobody sells skins preshaped as far as I know.

Shit that reminds me, I need to wax my skis...

try: irc.inet.tele.dk/6667 It is Danish though, so connection times might be slow sometimes. I've yet to have a problem however. That's the one I use with my IRC program, and it seems to work good.

"Opera is pretty cool" "nice little app" Fuck That Noise, OPERA FREAKIN' ROCKS!!! I would pay to use it now that I am hooked. But yes you can use the ad supported version, I do, and I never notice the ads. PM me if you have any troubles with it. I don't even remeber what a popup is, and there is a google search bar on my screen all the time. Love the nickname feature for the Bookmarks too. Multiple pages are the ticket for power spray sessions too. And fast? hell yeah. Let me know if you try it, and I will tell you the ticket to speeding it up even more, couple settings that need to be changed.

yup. The gimp wins the prize!

I have an ATX Borea Pack that I don't use much these days. It is a Large, and it is in Very Good Condition. I would like some money for it. $175 Canadian would be good. See it here. PM me.

Where will I be 365 days from now, and will I find a job that is truly satisfying to me?

Oops, sorry, I should learn to read better.

I got turned away at the US border last summer because I only had a DL, which is essentially all that Gary had.

I moved the discussion of Dynafit mounting out of this thread to here. I would like to keep this thread just templates. Any discussion about particular bindings can be in it's own thread.
-
doin' 90 hr first aid course. I dream about amputations. that might be because I went to see "Kill Bill" though.
-
Try Opera. Wondering why? Read this.

Dynafit AT binding... [edit] This is from the wildsnow.com Dynafit FAQ:
-
G3 15 mm shim, for mounting Superloops, and three hole bindings.

Must be those newfangled G3s, coz mine don't have any such mark on the riser. I guess you are the expert though, you have three years more ski experience than me. Oh, I see you've skied alpine too! Wow, that does me in, I never really got into that shit, too technical for me.
