The history :
I've shape 4 or 5 conventional skwal boards in the 2 past years but last year I've decide to give free rein to my madness and made the first Fall'US : A foot inline board with inversed sidecut and camber.
The first test day I decide to leave it on the "garrage"... But in the end of season we have a very good conditions with fresh snow and finally I've discouver a pleasant ride. But the first board have many default (like a short sidecut, etc.) and I redo a new one with titanal for this new season.

Well, I would built a second one and use them for skiing. Anyway, it was a good idea to extend the reverse camber/sidecut to skwals.

@allyson : What's means "viddy" ?
@davide : I know that you have some skwals in Japan.
In France they'vent not big amount of fresh snow (usualy 30/40cm) so for skiing I prefer my Yony work : a ski with a small reversed camber and normal internal sidecut and reverse external sidecut.
The 2 pairs : the green for my girlfriend and the white for me
The white in 180cm length with 100mm waist width
The green in 160cm length with 90mm waist width

Ils sont pas mal. j'aime bien les skis comme ca.
They looks like the Kanana (
http://www.skibuilders.com/gallery/kanana.shtml). I made also a similar pair

Then I have two pairs of narrow (about 100 mm wide) reverse camber/reverse sidecut skis. They are great in soft snow (spring/powder) and work well also on harder snow.

Un paire des skis super large (>120mm) on peut très bien l'utiliser aussi dans les Alpes, de temps en temps, spécialement cette saison...
