Tony H,
Tony, Tony, Tony,,,,I have so much to tell you! Do you have a "minute"?
As I read your answers I tried to "project" who you are, what you looked like..and how you ski!!!
Your answers were, "entertaining". imaginative, creative and unique! They provided me ( and I am sure many other readers) much "laugther"!
Please keep up imaginative messages!
Now for the bad news!
0/10 score!
However, I can not let this type of imaginative responce go by without some form of recognition,,,,so unless we get better "imaginative answers" Tony I will be sending you a "special" prize! Just send me via your PM your address etc,,,, You will wear it with pride as you ski! When other skiers ask you how you got this "unique" item,,,you can say,,,,,,,,,
Thanks for all answers!

RoseR,
Were you seated close to TonyH to get exact answers?
Did you read his mind?
Since you have not "officialy" posted any answers, you can still win gloves OR that special creative, imaginative prize!
Go for it!

Sleepless nights indeed .... and not just form this set of questions. It has been so hot and humid at night here that the nights are sleepless.
This is a difficult set of questions and I thought the Lego block answer was pretty good :!: It wouldn't be the first time that Pavel had adapted something complete unrelated to skiing into being a main tool for tuning or buckle fastening.
I too haven't yet given proper consideration to coming up with a set of answers ... and now I see that Pavel says we will be once more slapping our foreheads :!: :!: . But Pavel, the headaches are just about gone from the forehead slapping from the last time.
One thing that came to mind when reading the questions was the common use of layered kevlar in some ski bases as with some sports car construction. (Just a guess.)
But numbers have come back to bite us again. Hmmmmm ... and not on google??? I'm in trouble then :cry:
I must settle down and give some serious thought to what Lego could be used for in skiing.... :roll:
Mike :wink:

Woohoo! I got an answer right! :lol:
At least now I can start working again! (That is unless there is another ski quiz that distracts me!) .....so if Tony got 0 out of 10, then does that mean that Basil Brush HAS used a stealth bomber, F1 car and modern skis?!! :wink:
Thanks for the very welcome distraction though! :D

Mike,
What is happening? I expected many questions from you!
I do remember a "certain" ski tuning course you attended when all this was discussed! (Well most of it)!!!
I can not help to help you "engineers" since you are so close! Think,,,what do F1 cars, Stealth bombers and skis have in common as far as primary goals!
Yes yes you got it....to be at the "fine point" of product changes,,,, using new technological materials to make the final product better, faster, ligther, stronger, etc....
Or in other words, "why do modern skis "carve" so well?
Think!

Gordie,
So sorry about "getting you away" from work and serious studies! Let me make you a bet. 20 years from now what will you remember? What will you use?
I bet you will remember all the answers to this fun quiz since many will help you ski better! Also I am sorry to tell you this but you are now "addicted"! You will sneak by every so often to check what "others" are answering! You now have a personal stake!
That thesis is for others, for that paper,,,these questions and their answers is for you!( the future expert skier)! So when you will use those numbers, and your son asks you how come you know them by heart, you will smile and remember this quiz!
By the way, the shortest Ph.d thesis was one line! An equation to determine Factorial Analysis using varimax rotation! It took a book to explain what the equation meant!
