Administrators Horton Posted October 30, 2009 Administrators Share Posted October 30, 2009 I got rid of the old Fin and Binding Database because it was a mess. Through the miracle of technology I have a much better solution. Below are the data fields that I think I want to capture. Anyone want to suggest additional data to capture.

Baller Gloersen Posted October 30, 2009 Baller Share Posted October 30, 2009 DFFT or distance from front of fin to tail (jaws), helpful in comparison for those using the slot fin. Also more consistent than conventional DFT. Time on the ski at the posted settings (# sets, weeks, or months, etc.) Data posted after only a few sets of "experience" are of less value, imho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller HO 410 Posted October 30, 2009 Baller Share Posted October 30, 2009 Not an additional entry, just a manipulation of the data. I would if there is a consistent ration between length and depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Horton Posted November 6, 2009 Author Administrators Share Posted November 6, 2009 Ok guys the old Fin&Binding DataBase was a pain the in A$$. I think the new works a lot better and will be very useful for us all. I am still calling it beta so let me know is something is broken. I am working on the way the data sheet works but that may be a long term issueGo to http://ballofspray.com/settings and you will see the data form. Ready to add your #s? You will need to log in first. Then you will see a menu on the left. GetSettings links to the data sheet and AddSetting links to the input form.NOTE: At this time the log in for the Forum and the Main Site are not the same. (It is two different systems)You will need a user name and password for each. You can use the same user name and password if you like. If you have already posted to the classifieds, then you have an account at the main site that gives you access to the database.Please knock around and let me know . . .

Baller jdarwin Posted November 6, 2009 Baller Share Posted November 6, 2009 John - add 64" to the options list. I was going to put my daughter's numbers in there as well - she's on a 64" Z7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted November 6, 2009 Author Administrators Share Posted November 6, 2009 Ahhhh that brings me to one of the VERY cool things here. See the BLUE + next to the drop down for "Ski", "Size", "Year" and "Fin"? Click on it and add the value you need and it will be added to the list for all to use.Also did you see that from the DataSheet view you can export to CSV? For you none tech folks that means that with one click you can get the whole database in your excel.

Administrators Horton Posted November 6, 2009 Author Administrators Share Posted November 6, 2009 You can't - I think 3 @ 38 is as good or same thing. I can fix it but as long as we get good data and notes I think that is what really matters.How about some Stock #s anyone want to take a brand or two to start? I have a WestCoast DVD for the first person who gets me a whole brand worth of stock data.

Baller HO 410 Posted November 6, 2009 Baller Share Posted November 6, 2009 I got a few of those stock settings knocked out.There are a few that need to be cleaned up or deleted and I can redo them. S1 68" year needs to be changed to 10 instead of 90-95Prophecy 65" front boot should be changed to ConnellyZ7 64" upside down should be selected for wingZ7 65" Read binding dft needs to be moved to front bootZ7 66" year needs to be change to 10 instead of 09X5 second entry for 65.5" with find length 6.93 should be for the 66.5" ski I did put in an entry for the Warp 9. (for the 6 people that have one and the 1/2 person that doesn't have the numbers already). If you delete the space between the degree and parenthesis, the wing angles will display a little nicer. The stock settings for the Custom X are the same as the X5 if you can copy paste. There are stock settings for the 2007 Nomad RC, but not the early Nomad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Horton Posted November 8, 2009 Author Administrators Share Posted November 8, 2009 I made a few more changes. The first column is a little bit of a mess. I am looking for a mass edit took so I do not have to fix them one at a time. I am afraid I will have to hand edit all the  "Stock" numbers . . .  Not the end of the world.Besides that I think it is pretty darn good. Some of you guys asked for other fields. I think I crammed in all I can. If you have extra info please use the Notes field. Making changes from here forward is getting harder so if you have an idea . . .  this is your last chance to tell me.

Baller Tuney Posted November 9, 2009 Baller Share Posted November 9, 2009 I did Radar. If you could give me editing privileges I'd be OK with helping out with data quality. I made a major oops in my data entry on the RS1... I wasn't clicking "add" on fin type so they all came out stock, then when I realized what I had done and did the remainder properly I set them as personal rather than stock. :). Anyway, I can fix that up if you don't mind giving me access, if you'd rather not give the privileges to me just delete them and I'll redo them. Also made the "personal" rather than "stock" error on these skis.08 68†MPD 09 66†annex 08 69" Sen C I guess I am just a little tired haha. Anyway, I'll see if I can come up with the time to add more skis over the next few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted November 9, 2009 Author Administrators Share Posted November 9, 2009 Ok. I see that sometime in the next week or so there will have to be some cleanup.

Administrators Horton Posted November 9, 2009 Author Administrators Share Posted November 9, 2009 I am still looking for a good way to allow a few of you to admin the data but for not everyone can edit thier own records. Now if you click on the underlined name of the ski for records you created you can edit. I am getting smarter . . . slowly.The data we have is a good start. As it grows I will work on making it easier to work with and working out the tech so I can assign an admin.

Baller HO 410 Posted November 11, 2009 Baller Share Posted November 11, 2009 You may still want another pair of eyes, but the need is greatly diminished now that users have the rights to edit their own entries. Look very good so far. When we get more personal data, I'm going to answer that question about the length to depth ratio. Something to look into. The button to enter the vertical view is the text of the ski name. If a user enters a ski without a name, there is no way to enter the vertical view or edit the ski name. That probably just going to be one of the idieosyncrocies of that format unless you can make all data points into the button that will access the vertical view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted November 11, 2009 Author Administrators Share Posted November 11, 2009 All users have names. I really want to be able to assign a editor but that is going to take some tech. I am also lookng for a way to mass edit . . . more tech to learn. Better views is also on the list. Sadly the real job is killing me - better now then summer I guess.

Administrators Horton Posted November 26, 2009 Author Administrators Share Posted November 26, 2009 The Fin&Binding Database is back the way it should be or maybe a little better. I was tweaking on it and totally screwed it up. We all learn or in my case, cuss.  If you have entered data in the past would you please take a look and make sure that you still have the ability to edit your records. That is what I screwed up . . . all good now I think  Thanks,  Horton Goode ★ HO Syndicate ★ KD Skis ★ MasterCraft ★ PerfSki Radar ★ Reflex ★ S Lines ★ Stokes ★ Baller Video Coaching System Become a Supporting Member or make a One-time Donation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
