Baller Than_Bogan Posted July 1, 2012 Baller Share Posted July 1, 2012 If it's a new ski, don't do anything yet. Give it some time for your body to adjust and find the sweet spot for balance. Spray on rear leg is a fact of life in this sport. Just wait for the callouses to form! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller sunvalleylaw Posted July 2, 2012 Baller Share Posted July 2, 2012 I love the little water blisters mid calf. They look tough. spray legs always rolled up on me and never fit right anyway. Get your weight balanced over your feet so not too much is on your rear leg, and ski on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taelan28 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Get more speed on the way out l. Lean in preturn and cut harder. I used to have a problem with that but when i ski moderately aggressively its never a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Horton Posted July 3, 2012 Administrators Share Posted July 3, 2012 @Cypress_Gardens_1 the HO A1 is one of the modern classics. Surely a the top 10 ski of the last 10-15 years. If you can get some video or photos the folks around here can help you better.

Baller_ RichardDoane Posted July 3, 2012 Baller_ Share Posted July 3, 2012 @cypress_gardens_1 - resist the urge to wear a spray leg, the teasing you'll receive will be relentless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
