How to Make Skis
From skipowd.tv :
Jason Levinthal, the legendary pioneer who invented the twin tip ski, takes freestyle enthusiasts inside the Utopie Mfg. factory in Rimouski, Quebec, to reveal the precise craftsmanship behind modern park and powder skis. From layering wood cores and fiberglass to pressing and robotic base grinding, every step of the manufacturing process shapes the tools used for stomping tricks. This behind-the-scenes look highlights the fusion of engineering and freestyle culture that fuels today's progressive skiing.
