Finished my skis for the Decathlon 120 a couple of weeks ago I used 4" x 12" x 1/8" Lexan. Finaly got a day where the weather and health issues were not at odds with me so I hauled the plane to the pond for a test go. The skis were unfortunatley to small to do the job with the conditions at hand. We had a lite crust on top of soft powder snow with slush down a couple of inches, the skis would break thru the crust then bury them selves into the powder and down to the slush. For most of the conditions we typicaly have here (usualy its wind blown hard pack) I think these would be fine but just too short for what I was faced with Saturday.

I plan to pick up some more lexan but make it 4" by 24" and give it a go again. I think the lexan I made the current ones out of worked nice just too short for the soft stuff.
