Comments about Glittertind Wax Skis:

I have been using this in Minnesota as my go to backcountry ski. I use voile 3-pins for touring and have the optional cable attachment for downhill. Using these for backcountry touring in the woods is a blast. I float on the snow pretty well, unless its powder. I ordered 205 cm and I weight 170 lb. I was planning on using them mostly with a backpack weighing around 30 lb. I have also used these at the local ski resorts to attempt to learn some tele downhill skills, and I have to say these skis always make me feel in control. Although truly carving turns takes a lot of finesse. But again, I have no prior tele experience. I am using Fischer bcx 675 boots, which have plenty of power to turn these with the 3-pin cable setup. Since these are a wax base, you will need to wax them. I carry two general purpose waxes as well as clister. Waxing seemed to be tricky, but mixing my 0 degree with my 30 degree seems to keep me covered over a broad range, and I have comparable grip to my karhu trak skis with the patterned base. Overall a very fun ski. This is the all-terrain mnt. bike of skis so to speak.
