How Hand-Built Custom Skis Are Made
At Wagner Custom Skis in Telluride, Co., the size, skill, and ambition of a skier are taken into account while handcrafting a one-of-a-kind pair. But it’s on the mountain where Wagner style really shows.

I could watch things are made all day long! Love Telluride CO
These machines are virtually no different than any other machines used by modern manufacturers.
$2010 for those skis?!?! Das expensive. You can definitely see all the craftsmanship
That was amazing. Great production. $2k seems reasonable for hand made skis

It’s really not that reasonable. World class skiers use factory made skis costing half as much. The “mass produced” stuff is also going to have better R&D and materials in it.

I want a pair of these now 😭
I've spent several thousand dollars in skis alone in the last 4 years. I will not spend another penny on skis until I have enough for a custom set from this company
Interesting
I live in gunnison, work on Crested Butte Mountain Resort, at a rental/demo shop. Really wish we had these to demo. Awesome to fine out how these are created. Go fast, take chances! CB sends its love ❄❄❄
He says that there is not really a company making machines to produce skis. That is not true - there is one not far from me in Carinthia (Austria) and I know of multiple companies making various machines specifically for the production of skis, snowboards etc. here in Europe. These machines are expensive tho. Also, 2k does not seem reasonable to me as a really nice pair of Atomic/Fischer/Rosisgnol skis is overkill for most people at 1/4 of the price, even for professional riders. I guess the skis tehy are producing are not about that, which is fine to me, I like the way they are customizable.

What do you mean by overkill? The prices of those companies are pretty average. Besides that, price doesn't determine the characteristics of a ski. Expensive skis can work really well for some people, but not so great for others. Every ski has advantages and disadvantages and none are straight up better than another.
In a lot of ski build videos they are using vacume bags and/or heat while pressing. What are advantages/disadvantages from this. Was surprised to not see it used here.

Adds consumable cost, for one.
Btw you can get custom moments for 1000 where you can do much more customized for graphic

You gotta factor in the time and machine costs.
Never gunna catch me spending over 2 grand just for the skis
I'm guessing from the comments that they are looking for cheaper skis, not more expensive ones.
"we were here first ski company"
why there is no full pure carbon fiber ski ???
Hello sir
Folsom customs are made talking with real experts instead of an wagner’s so called algorithm computer software and on top of that they are half the price and you dont pay more for better materials.
The emperor's new skis

@@guyleckenby7567 it may look like back seat but in powder you arent actually skiing the same gradient as the slope. even when centered on skis your tails will sink slightly and you have less of a slope angle than the mountain. What the issue is here, is that his inside knee is coming in slightly and he needs to roll his inside knee more into the turn direction. This will stop his weight being too much on the outside for soft snow conditions thus preventing the outside ski from sinking away and losing the 'a-frame' creating a more 'stacked' leg alignment.
Of course they have a Unimog!
2k seems a bit too much for a pair of skis
Woodprix has a lot of designs to choose from.
"cnc can't completely cut through the core"...bunk....people should take the time to explain why instead of just saying something which is a total nonsense.

I don't get you skiers. You live in a beautiful and pristine environment, you come across as reasonable people, then you go and mess it up by burning tonnes and tonnes of Kerosene for a few turns. Why ?
