Ski Bottoms
Where can I find the teflon or white plastic that I have seen rivited to the bottom of some skis. Is this an approved mod? I have fed 2500 skis Thanks Mark

Re: Ski Bottoms
No problem. I've replaced the plastic bottom on one of my Federal 1500s (for my J3), so I'm somewhat familiar with the process. If I can be of any further help, feel free to call. I'm in the 170 Association book.

Re: Ski Bottoms
1/4 screws and nuts with cone washers work better and , and most plastic places carry the 1/4 MWR.
