WhiteRoom Skis

Kid 2 got a new set this year!! He picked the camo carbon-aramid hybrid fiber for his tops. The skis themselves came out great. 3lbs 2 oz before the base grind with a nice medium-minus flex which for a kid that only weighs 85lbs is right on target. The dimensions are 160 cm 120/86/110, 5mm camber with a short tip rocker and a shorter tail rocker. #whiteroomskis #customskis #entropyresins #madeinvermont #skiing #handmadeskis #skis #vermont #vermontmade #powder #snow #makethingsbetter

Still…back at it with another custom set. These get a 9.92/10 for me. This pair is a 160 cm ski with dimensions of 128/99/109. They features a short rocker tip and a shorty tail rocker also with 4-5mm of camber underfoot. The flex is a nice medium. These should be at home in the groomers as well as ungroomed and mixed conditions. The graphics came out great and the eight before the base grind is 3lbs 9.9oz each. These will drop a couple ounces in the grind and tune phase. #whiteroomskis #customskis #madeinvermont #skiing #handmadeskis #skis #vermont #vermontmade #snow #winter #entropyresin #makethingsbetter

The second pair in a husband/wife combo. This pair is also made with maple sidewalls and will be used with leather tele boots for backwoods touring. This is a 150cm ski 108/74/94 with a short rocker tip, 6 mm of camber and a small tail flare plus a skin notch. We went with minimal plastics and low key matching graphics on a tiger maple top. They weigh only 2lbs 10 oz before the base grind and tune. Flex is medium to slightly more than medium. All in all a beautiful set that will be a joy to tele-dance around the woods in. #whiteroomskis #customskis #madeinvermont #skiing #handmadeskis #skis #vermont #vermontmade #snow #telemarkskiing

It’s been a couple weeks since I’ve had time to get in the shop to press a set. This pair is unique in several ways. This customer had some specific ideas…use as little plastic as possible, so no plastic sidewall and no plastic topsheet, make them a soft flex for use with leather tele boots and keep the graphics to a minimum. This is only the second pair I’ve ever built with wood sidewalls. The other was the very first pair I ever built, 14 years ago. This is also maybe the skinniest ski I’ve ever pressed aside from maybe a pair for my kids. This ski is a 170cm 110/66/96. It has a short tip rocker of 23cm, 5 mm of camber and a small tail flare plus a skin notch. The flex came out as medium-minus. The weigh in at 2lbs 13 oz each before the base grind!! They will be used for backwoods tele with leather boots. I have to give this set a 9.9/10so far. #whiteroomskis #customskis #madeinvermont #skiing #handmadeskis #skis #vermont #telemark #leatherboots #3pin #vermontmade

Feeling nostalgic scrolling though some old pics from over the years. Some recent events have me longing for the silence of a snowstorm, the speed and weightlessness of floating in the WhiteRoom and the joy of sharing it with my boys, my friends and my family. I also want for peace and solitude, at home on a mountain, lost in my own world where there are no thoughts, no distractions, no responsibilities….only feelings….where nothing else matters except the next turn. #whiteroomskis #customskis #madeinvermont #skiing #handmadeskis #skis #vermont #friendsonapowderday #winter #powder #whiteroom #snow #ski

Another beautiful set pressed! This is another copy of my most popular model 180cm 136/102/123. I customized this set with a smooth medium flex to make them just a bit more forgiving for their owner who wants to be able to stay put on the mountain longer and enjoy his days. 4lbs 8 oz per ski for this set. #whiteroomskis #customskis #madeinvermont #skiing #handmadeskis #skis #vermont #vermontmade #

A little look at what it takes to trim out and finish off a pair of skis. Plus pics from this week’s build. This pair is a 178 134/103/121. This pair has a solid medium-plus flex, 5mm of camber and weigh in at 4 lbs 11oz. This set is going to lay trenches on groomers, plow through cut up crud and still float in deep snow. #whiteroomskis #customskis #madeinvermont #skiing #handmadeskis #skis #vermont

Pressed another beautiful set today. This is another copy of my 180 cm 136/102/123 model. But to say it’s a copy is misleading every pair is unique in their own way and this one is no different. With some very cool round inlays and figured maple….sometimes less is more. These will be right in the 4.5lbs per ski range after the base grind and final trimming. They have a sweet medium plus flex that is so popular with this model. These get a 9.9/10 . #whiteroomskis #customskis #madeinvermont #vermont made #skis #skiing #vermont

This pair is a birthday gift for a lucky guy who’s friends chipped in on this set of skis for him. After some discussion we settled on 180cm 136/102/123 with a medium flex. The weight will be right around 4.25lbs after the base grind and tune are complete. The graphic commemorates the eclipse we experienced earlier this spring. I have to say this pair came out beautifully. I’ll give them a 9.8/10 on my personal perfection meter. #whiteroomskis #customskis #handmadeskis #madeinvermont #vermontmade #eclipse2024 #eclipse #skis #skiing #entropyresins #makethingsbetter

It’s been a minute since I’ve posted not that I haven’t been busy.. sorry bout that. I finally got back in the shop today to press a set with their new owner @bryansalatino When we were discussing his skis we decided on an all mountain ripper. We came up with a 185 cm 130/91/121 ski with a 25 cm tip rocker, 5 mm of camber and a slight tail flare. The radius is 16.3 meters. We discussed that weight wasn’t a factor in this ski and in fact a slightly beefier profile might be just the thing for this set and his skiing style. Today we nailed it. This ski weighs in at 4.75oz per ski, on the beefy side but not a tank either. We used a mix of 19oz glass backed up with some Z carbon as well as some 24k carbon on the base side and 12 k carbon stringers on an oblique axis to beef up the torsional component. I’m super stoked on how these turned out. @snscfreeski @teo.campbell #whiteroomskis #customskis #snsc @ifsafreeriders #madeinvermont #handmadeskis #skis #skiing @entropyresins #makethingsbetter
