Hello all,
I need some info on cutting back the sidewall as this is the one thing I am concerned about screwing up. I will of course try on an older pair of race skis first. I have small race skis 120cm fischer that has a yellow narrow sidewall and it has that thin line lip on it not sure what that is called but like the plastic runs flush against the side edge shown in the picture as well here attached. I bought a plane beast hoping I may have less risk on damaging things but of course still need to practice on an old ski. Pictures here of the planar and the ski sidewall. The ski at the tip has very little sidewall at all then middle narrow down to tail also very little sidewall. Where do I place this thing and start running it down the ski tip to tail? Also what type of pressure because I imagine that lip is going to be rough cutting through and worried about chatter making a rough sidewall. Do I need to adjust the blade on it at all?
Thanks for any tips all I need to figure this out as I am buying either a razor tune or evo so need to cut them back.
