I really want to try skis. We barely get enough snow here at sea level on
Whidbey Island in Washington State, but get a ton of snow in the mountains
where there are frozen lakes and snow covered airstrips.

But, I can't believe how expensive certified skis are. So, I'm thinking that
after several years of floats and tail wheel fun, I'll try to find an
experimental fiberglass design that I can build myself. I'm sure there are
several dubious designs, but maybe there is a good set of plans out there.

I built welded tube fixed penetration wheel skis with plastic bottoms. I
shamelessly ripped off the avid flyer design from their webpage after I
tried to buy a set from them but they refused to give me any guidance with
the instalation. Cost was about $200

Eric, I have a set of Federal 2000 skis including tail ski for sale that
were used on my Maule.
