I work at Hunter in the rental department, so all the skis there throwing out ( they had Salomon 500 bindings which are no longer considered safe by solomon ).. we can take.. some ppl are making chairs, others, contraptions like I'm going to build
I was going to try it without the castors on the snow first ( at Hunter ).. I do know that it will work on the snow because I could flex the edges in on the front shovles of the skis, and they would turn it, just like you can turn parabolic skis, by shifting weight... but I was afraid of the fact, it may not turn on the castors with weight change, and I may need a way to angle ( as paralell to the louge ) the skis to steer... mount a solid piviot up front on them, and add a support with a steering tiller in the middle, in the back of the ski.. with some kind of support to hold the rear of the skis, that slides... I'm sure I'll end up in the news if I get torn up enough to get air lifted..You don't know what you've got til it's gone

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
