Gear at the mountain
I'm gonna test my first pair in februari in Tignes but has anyone got tips on what to bring onto the mountain? (Ducktape is standard issue) and what to bring to the appartment?
Assumption is the base of all f*ck ups
Re: Gear at the mountain
you might need some trust in your workmannship!
well...for the appartment: maybe some fast curing epoxy and screws if you really want to fix probable delamination issiues in tip and tail... i think this would be the only "on spot" repairable problem... and maybe the most likely one too

plywood freeride industries - go ply, ride wood!
I'll second that... Bring an extra pair of skis.
My 5th day on the Bremallows... It was deep powder, I hit a stump that was hidden, the tail of the ski hit me in the back of the leg while my boots were still firmly in the bindings... then both edges popped off.
Fortunately, I had an extra pair in the car and was able to "Harvest Pow" the rest of the afternoon.

Clamps and Araldite rapid.....a few packs and a few clamps should take care of most things.
A drill to remount your bindings if you aren't sure of your boot center and or don't have movable bindings. Our early Bro model prototypes were mounted 6 inches (150mm) from where the sweet spot was. No rental binding moves that far.
