so i have this idea of a way to make skis lighter, and more flexible. for the base matieral, use like a hemp stalk because its light, and can be thin/flexabile enough to form a ski. im not sure about the durablity...but just a thought.

At first, it made sense. I'll tell you why, I thought 'hemp' and 'stalk' were one word, 'halk'. And I thought that if combining words was possible, why not a hemp ski?





Is everyone else high too?

I'm sure ski companies have looked into how to make skis lighter, and Liberty makes their skis with bamboo. But hemp stalk, I don't know. I don't think it would be durable enough to even get a season out of. What if they were too flexy? Almost not-rideable

Hemp is the number one greatest natural resource this world has to use right now. Good thinking
I am actually working on a year long hemp study right now.
Bamboo would be better than hemp for skis tho, i think. so far

I'm glad I opened this thread up actually because I want to make ski's with hemp in them.  I want to test a different method and try replacing extremely durable hemp woven fabric in place of a braided fiberglass weave.  They have similar qualities I really don't know if hemp is actually lighter or anything.  It get's epoxied into the ski, that's the only way I see it happening.

1.) Melt old skis.
2.) Make new skis.

Unlimited skis.
