Curious if the skis will resort back to their normal shape after a couple rides, or hold Their new rocker profile 🤱

Did the rocker end up staying? I'm seriously considering doing this if it actually works.

I did this with my on3ps a couple years back and they made the skis noticeably softer bc I didn’t like how stiff they were. I’ve wanted to try this on Vishnu wets and just leave them like that for months but that might honestly make the ski prone to breaking at some point.

As someone who has skiied full rocker, then camber, unless you're on a pow day, it makes the ski way less poppy and fun.
