how long do u think the Ptex stays on a edge, 30 second maybe a min. Urban Legend
if u have a space between edge & base, could help but it aint super glue eh

it will not stay on your edge...it will just chip right off if you hit a rail or ski for that matter

the only time p-tex will stay on your ski is in a gash. othewise your suppose to scrape the rest off. if you try and have p-tex going over your base or edge it will just make it harder to use your edges and will slow you down.

well dudes i took my old pair of armadas and removed all the edges from them , man they are great for urban rails, especialy the aluminium ones and i think that i will put p-tex where the edges were.
