Can I use my Fritschi bindings at the ski resort?

Fritschi Diamir Titanal ski randonnee AT binding FAQ info in...
Using your randonnee bindings for all your skiing, resort and backcountry, is known as "one rig." The wisdom of using bindings as "one rig" depends on a few factors. If you're primarily doing laps using ski lifts you'll be covering an immense amount of vertical that places wear on the bindings they were not designed for. More, though the Fritschi toe release is adequate, it's not as highly engineered as the latest alpine bindings.

How long does it take to ski to a hut?

th Mountain Huts Frequently Asked Questions -- FAQ
Travel time varies greatly depending on the difficulty of the route, personal ability, and weather conditions. A general rule of thumb is to estimate one mile per hour and an additional hour for every thousand feet of vertical gain. On clear days, when a trail has already been broken-out, most groups will travel faster than this, but in low visibility or if there is no broken trail, it can take even longer. You must evaluate your own capabilities.

Why buy a Maherajah ski?

Maherajah's Frequently Asked Questions
Factory direct pricing. Maherajah skis are made from a variety of domestic and exotic wood. This material gives our skis superior dampening- your ski will return to its original shape quickly and smoothly. Fiberglass and foam-core skis tend to have poor dampening and decrease in stiffness over time. You want a stiff ski that does not change its shape while you’re riding. Over the last 57 years, we have found that our wood skis outlast all other skis on the market.

Should I touch-up or refinish my older ski?

Maherajah's Frequently Asked Questions
We do not recommend refinishing an older ski. If the ski has been badly damaged or neglected we don't recommend using it. If you intend on using it, you can touch up the spots where bare wood is exposed by lightly sanding the spot and applying an exterior urethane based product, isolating the bad spots with masking tape. We have found that refinishing a ski makes it thinner, more flexible, and more likely to break. Old skis are already more brittle than their newer counterparts.

What is the life span of a racing ski?

Maherajah's Frequently Asked Questions
The life expectancy of a well used Maherajah Longboard Racing Ski (and similar skis from other manufacturers) is about 5 years. Nicks and scratches in the outer layers of the ski will allow the absorbtion of water, which can make the ski heavier over time. This additional weight affects the ski's performance. Older skis aquire more flex which will cause porpoising and increased drag.

How easy are the bindings?

Troop 4 Snowshoeing Tips & Hints | FAQ
The bindings on all snowshoes are intended to fit simply, but some styles are more simple than others! The easiest (and most expensive!) are the snowboard style ratchet bindings. The most common are straps with quick release or slide buckles. Homemade shoes may even use ropes, relying on your knot tying skills to fasten the bindings securely. Regardless of the binding style, all bindings must be properly adjusted to ensure a secure fit. Always begin by placing the snowshoes on flat ground.
