    Praxis Lhasa Pows?

    Keith and I picked up a years old discussion today regarding him building the lhasa pow and maybe some other bros. We're figuring out what it would take. I told him he could have free reign over the construction because our manufacturing processes were so different. He can use the tops I still have or print his own. Metal tips and tails would be replaced with a full edge wrap. Anybody think they'd want some Praxis Lhasas? We wanted to get a feel for interest before going further.

          Would there be a choice of flex/width aka fat/stiff?

            I am selling some 186 carbon lhasa pows in gear swap for 300 plus shipping with sollyfit plates included if anyone is interested.

                I think I'm more of a Kusala type guy, but glad to see this.

                  I think this is a very bad idea actually. Yes, the camber profile and sidecut are amazeballs. But, hey, so were a lot of other old skis. I've moved on.

                    An indication of how these might be priced would be helpful. The post Brexit vote pound is worth next to fuck all. On the other hand, my 186s are double the age of my eldest child and on their third mount. Might there be a 191 fat?

                        Never in U.S. history has the public chosen leadership this malevolent. The moral clarity of their decision is crystalline, particularly knowing how Trump will regard his slim margin as a “mandate” to do his worst. We’ve learned something about America that we didn’t know, or perhaps didn’t believe, and it’ll forever color our individual judgments of who and what we are.

                            If they get the full customization options, I'm likely in for a lightweight set so my current ones can be dedicated to resort duty.

                              if he's doing the bros, I would almost certainly buy another pair of unmounted 179 carbon bros... ultimate soft snow touring ski for me anyway
