    Phazer build. 3 into one, "Frankistein"

    Below I will be creating a sled build thread. Lots of pictures and blather just like in days of old. I bought this last year from a kid that worked for me. He built it years ago and it had been setting for a long time. He gave me a deal on it and I have been making poor choices where this...

    New Tuner Skis, not really any improvement?

    So I read a while ago that yamaha redesigned the tuner ski to have deeper keels. So I checked it out at the dealer the other day. They are deeper, a hole 3/16 of an inch deeper. Which is better, not by much, but better. Here is the why it isn't worth the bother. The ski is narrower...
