    RaxSki from Austria, the most controversial ski

    I know nothing about "fleeing" with RaxSki in a dangerous situation! The typical reaction of a Rax rider is to squat down and lean back.

    RaxSki from Austria, the most controversial ski

    Unless you activate the rear fins, the RaxSki behaves like any snowblade. That means very bad. Then you angulate (=put on edge) the RaxSki or you lift its tips and you immediately feel that fins are cutting. Active rear fins stabilize you better than a 2m ski. The higher your speed the better...

    RaxSki from Austria, the most controversial ski

    The RaxSki is the first ski in the whole history having all control elements BEHIND the ski boots. This feature makes the ski very safe. The "Firngleiter" was trying the same with very primitive means. In contrary, the "carver" is controlled mainly by shaped edges at its wide tips. The human...

    You are right, some pilots can fly their airplane backwards -at least hundred meters- but they do that without any passengers. Unlike snowboards and twin-tips cars are not really symetric, are they ?

    I believe you that, Emil. I guess you were not faster than 100km/hr then.

    Explain me what you mean by \"tilting\". This pic was taken from the opposite hill and such camera position makes everything steeper. The terrain on the pic was a typical avalanche slope around 50° yet not long enough to be really dangerous. This one WAS really dangerous.

    Fakie? Skiing backwards ? The RaxSki is a one-direction vehicle like a car, an airplane, a surfboard etc. Ski acrobats demonstrated going fakie on RaxSki [url= text to link here...[/url] but that's not everybody darling.

    RaxSki from Austria, the most controversial ski

    1) Well, there is an original Japanese painting on our top sheet. On the other side, Praxis has re-painted this scene completely. 2)Our American testers are not saying \\\"that their regular skis are way better\\\". Read that report more carefully, Carled. 3) I think that freeriding is an...

    RaxSki from Austria, the most controversial ski

    Do not feel upset, Defecto! They do not smell. Remember: the father of RaxSki was not a snowblade but a "Firngleiter". All snowblades have this stupid (for a short ski) twin tips. The tail of Firngleiter is NOT rounded up. We have just enhanced this ingenious Tyrolean "undergound" ski with...

    RaxSki from Austria, the most controversial ski

    You are right, Nojlas. The landing with a 1m-ski is not as stable as you are used to. But .... who is saying that the RaxSki is limited to 1m ? I was racing Derby de la Meije with 1,75cm RaxSki and our RaxTeam later developed a "powder monstrum" like 18cm under foot ! It is like a battle ship...

    RaxSki from Austria, the most controversial ski

    Yeah, Carled! 1) Our topsheet shows the famous Japanese Great Wave off Kanagawa. They call it "tsunami". Praxis' topsheet has nothing to do with water, see, wave, Fuji, crashing boats etc 2) It is just your personal meaning. More than 1,000 skiers all over the world have tried RaxSki yet...

    RaxSki from Austria, the most controversial ski

    Felix, you are right. The RaxSki is a revolt against the skiing establishment and the RaxSki is a "rocker board" but with a new fin control at its tail. It is the potential ski revolution, the commercial interest does not exist in this start-up period. It is different, even in top-sheet design

    RaxSki from Austria, the most controversial ski

    We have invented the RaxSki because we found no ski turning fast enough nor tracking well enough in all snow and terrain conditions. After 20 years of desparate attempts to invent such a revolutionary ski we “bent" the normal side-cut ski behind the binding and fixed surfboard-like fins at the...
