The Freeride Idea Contest 2015

It's definately not my idea but it's something that already has been developed and could have huge implications. By passing certain voltages and frequencies through a conducting ski base material, temporary melt-freeze phenomenae can be achieved on the base/snow interface of the ski. One application which has already been tried and tested is to create uphill friction using this system so that climbing skins are not necessary. Other applications could include eliminating friction to make bases waxless or even speed controll/braking.

It sounds good but could it be developed in near future? Uros Obradovic

It has already been developed! ptor

Is it expencive? Uros Obradovic

you must give us some more information!:) bonibom
