HO S1 ski
Just received my new S1 ski today very excited. I'm going to start with the factory settings and see how things go. I'm hoping to use it a couple of times next week. Any tips on how I should handle a new ski?

Re: HO S1 ski
Keep the narrow end behind you and the side with the bindings uppermost at all times.

Re: HO S1 ski
Congrats!
It's been said to wash the bottom side with a warm dish soap solution to remove the anti mold residue, etc... to improve tracking. I can't say if this tip is only an old skiers ex-wives tale or a real fact...
They sound like a very cool 34 mph ski, how much did you get it for?

Thanks for the tips guys I'll keep track of how it skis and reacts to any adjustments I make.
Dawg do those old skier ex-wives tales come from to much skiing?.....It cost a lot.

Besides the saying; "Everything in moderation"...
Maybe the other choices would be: "We interupt this marriage for ski season"...
or "The Family that ski's together stays together"??? (it sure is nice to have a boat driver in the family!)

I've always said Perfect Pass missed the boat when they didn't offer one version called "The Marriage Saver".
