Wagner

Today we went to Wagner customs. It was so cool to see how they make there skis and how their factory is powered by wind and solar systems. the making of there ski's starts out with an online question review to see what kind of ski would be best for you. from there they meet with you to see what size, shape, and with. from there you pick a graphic that suits you. From there they start to build your ski. They start out with what type of would core would be best for you. Then they have a machine that cuts out the shape of the ski. After that they go to they base of the ski were they put there signature logo and the metal edges in. From there they put all together at the wetting station. There they put the ski together as a sandwich construction, this is were they put the base, core, P-Tex, fiber glass, and the top sheet together with the special glues. from there it goes into a giant press that has blocks the range in shape. these are for the tip and tail, they either give you more tip or less tip and tail. After it has become one solid piece they take it to the jig saw to cut the ski out then from there they sand the edges and put on a protection sheet on the top sheet to make sure it stays nice and glossy. So that's how Wagner makes there skis and what we learned today.
