Scott boots and what skis?

RBL (Robert B. Lange)

Gang...I worked at RBL from almost the very beginning to almost the very end. Long...long...story. I can elucidate if you wish. RB was cool I should have kept in touch better. The pictures are of the tail of the orange skis showing the name, and where they were built. The other is one of the RBL "Team"

skis I made for myself that RB autographed for me.

How about a photo of the bottom of those Scott boots and how the Spademan plates are mounted.

Uncle-A your request is my pleasure...yup I still have a Spademan mounting jig and all that is left of a shop repair kit from about 1985.

Thanks, that brings back some memories. I recall @Doug Briggs was thinking of mounting Spademan plates on a pair of Scott boots. I don't remember if he had the drilling jig or not although I am sure he could do it without the jig if he wanted.

I did not mount the plates on the boots. I used borrowed rental plates instead.
