Would making edgeless skis work?

I have a pair of Line Blends that I ripped the part of the edge off. I was wondering if it was possible to take the edge off completely and make an edgeless ski.

You can try. According to the guys at moment, it’s hard to prevent the ski base from warping without edges

One of my buddies has the bdog edge less and watching him ride is comedy gold. Any little patch of ice and he’s trying not to eat shit. In the park rails are super interesting feeling at first but they feel great once you get used to it but the durability of the bases is not the greatest his are almost completely rounded off underfoot from rails after about a season on em. Super fun if your just skiing park but don’t try to use them anywhere else on the mountain

I made my nordica soul riders edgeless and it was best decision i've ever made. The skis were pretty old and beat up already so I didn't do anything with epoxy. I'd definitely go for it if I were you

Armada makes the BDog edgeless. I got to see them in person and they blew my mind but I haven't skied them before.
