Sounder Jan 31

So the temperature looks like it is going to be about +2 and rain.

This is a perfect course and conditions to double pole, if you have ever thought about double poling a race this might be the one


Glide

Tomorrows race is going to need the right pair of skis more then glide wax, I am recommending to use CH8 which is Swix red, you could use a yellow wax but the red wax will tend to pick-up less dirt and stuff off of the trail.

I will be bringing the riller with me, this will help stop the suction on the bottom of the skis

Grip


If you have zeros you might want to bring them to give them a try, I think it might be a little wet, but it is worth a shot.

We are going to be using Klister, so please tape for grip and apply a violet base wax very thin to your klister kick zone.  We will test waxes when we get there and we will bring 2 tables with us.


Things to bring


  • Dry clothes for after the race
  • Dry shoes for after the race
  • Hat for during the race
  • Shell for during the race


Look forward to seeing everyone there
