Paging Kidwoo - Woo 2.0

[CaliBrit]

Have you skied it?

Has anyone skied it?

Loving the new graphics.

[Winkler]

I'm curious what folks have to say about woo 2.0 as well. I'm on a pair of 1.0? and love em, but I'm confused about all this tail rocker/stability talk. My understanding is that woo 1.0 has less tail splay than than the protest, however when I compare my woo to my protests there is definitely more tail splay on the woo, its plainly obvious. Anyone else actually have current protests and woos to verify?

So I to answer your question...no I haven't skied it. My guess is that it is very similar to the 1.0, which is VERY similar to the protest minus whatever percent float and whatever percent better for walking.

[kidwoo]

Whoa. Talk about timing.

Keith just got in touch with me yesterday and it sounds like he was getting a few pairs pressed. They might be ready today. But no, I haven't skied them. It's still dirt season.

But I'm pretty much vibrating with anticipation. I don't want to quote any numbers before he gets the pdf up. The rough idea is:

1) more tapered tip, IE: less squared off

2) tip contact point/wide point slightly more forward

3) more tail splay/rocker

[CaliBrit]

It sure does look sweet. I like the look of the new tip, kind of like the ehp.

[JRainey]

Yeah, those are looking good. What's the beta on getting them lighter. I remember some people in the Woo thread saying they were getting ones in the sub 9 pound range, with light top sheets and such. Can he go full carbon?

[TheDon]

What's the new graphic look like?

[TheDon]

Never mind, google works.

1+ the new graphic is sick!

I think mine from last year were about a cunt hair shy of 9lbs with the glass topsheet. Nothing special or particularly 'weight savings' about the layup.

Praying for 4lbs per ski Woo Twos.

[kidwoo]

I'll weigh them as soon as I can. A 'lighter than advertised' praxis ski isn't unheard of.....

4lbs may be pushing it but everyone involved in this project wants a bomber ski before a rando racer.

I'll post up the finished weight when I get them.

[Winkler]

I just looked at the updated pic on the praxis site. New tip shape & top sheet look awesome!

yeah well.... I didn't want to be part of your gang anyway. So there.

[8.5 a pair would be ok].

[[new top sheet is one of the best art topsheets I have seen]].

[Climber Joe]

So how would the woo be different than my ON3P Billy Goats?

Have you looked at the dims? Really a completely different concept.

Are you getting some big ones, or little ones? I'd be interested in both weights.
