Do any of you frequently use ski's on Max's in the winter? If so, any particular design that works best given this gear design?

If you spend an hour or so on the internet, you can find a lot about making your own airplane snow skis, including guidelines on dimensional requirement based on specs of the plane in question. I have spent the hour and printed out a lot of material and when appropriate, I will make the skis I want, a task well within the realm of doable for anyone who has already built the plane in question. Materials used in info found include aluminum, Teflon, wood, plastic, existing snow boards, sometimes the research part of it is fun.
