just talked to them. one full roll minimum order. that's 400m of p-tex!
they told me that they get their bases from Germany, so I'm pretty shure they just buy the CPS/Gurit stuff.

I have an offer from CPS for 500m of high transparency sintered base 330mm width for 6,17 EUR/m.

Wow, 400m is a little overkill for my first pair of skiis.. :|

Maybe I can get a deal from the norwegian reseller...

btw is there much difference in the plastic? one of the types I cand get is PE UHMW excruded? I read somewhere that sintered is the way to go, butikk is it all the same as long it is UHMW?)
