The White Pine defied Mother Nature and successfully pulled off a 3rd race for the Michigan Cup Series. It was a challenging race that started at 7:00am under the lights of the Schuss Mountain downhills slopes.
With the North American Vasa race weekend only 8 days away we have a mixed bag of news for you...
UPDATED: Wax recommendations for this weekend's races! The White Pine Stampede AND Forbush Classic recommendations are available.
Here are some general grip waxing principles and then some Toko-specific tips. How you wax your skis has a lot to do with not only the conditions but also your skis and how they are related to you.
I think the best way to look at cold snow from a practical or usable point of view is to break cold snow down into cold and slow, cold, and cold and fast. Each wax has its “sweet spot” and there is no one wax that performs best in each.
There is currently one foot of snow in the woods with more on the way. The entire system has survived the warm temperatures and rain and has been groomed since early January.
Chris Weingartz, my dear old friend and ski buddy passed away last Wednesday, the 25th of January. He was 67 years old. He had a fairly long bout with cancer, one that we thought he had largely won six months back, but that was not to be.
Wax recommendations for the JNQ races in Brillion, Wisconson, and the Noquemanon Ski Marathon.
What do snow, volunteers, snowshoers, and Oleson's Food Stores have to do with the 2023 North American Vasa?

I qualified for my first World Cup races and will be competing in Les Rousses, France and Toblach, Italy! And I was a former Michigan Cup skier!
