Apparently a (perhaps?) surprising number of people do.
I was searching supply houses for sources for new edges and soles for my ancient Dynamic VR 17's. Second pair of skis i owned, bought new at Hechinger's lumber yard, spring of 1970 & skied sporadically ever since. Multiple pairs of boots over the years, but only tried other skis this Feb.
One of the supply houses included links to this site.
Ski Builders Forum - Index page
On that note, (Dyna)mics were hand built in that era & tested on a "dyno" to match the results into pairs of equal fore-aft flex characteristics, and overall stiffness.
Now I want to build a pair and re-saw a crappy 2 x 4, complete with grade stamps, to use for a top sheet veneers.
