List of Wooden Ski Manufacturers with Photos

Don't remember how I surfed to this page, but here you go:

Wooden ski brands and makers, 1800s-1980s.

No Kneissl?

How many have you owned, Doug?

If you bump into a guy at Summit Nordic on Madshus Birkebeiners, it might be me. If he's wearing charcoal tweed knickers, it is me.

Cool stuff wooley12. I'll keep an eye out for you.

gregL, while my first skiing years in the late 70s overlapped the wooden ski era, I've only owned the modern stuff. How many do you have?

Jibber, thanks for the link, I have used some, and collected some of these skies, great to have a little history of the company's.

Thanks for the link! I recently acquired a set of wooden skis with three different brands listed on the various metal parts. Using this site I was able to figure out that Anderson and Thompson were the ski manufacturers. It was neat to learn about their local history and that they helped get K2 off the ground.

The bindings are clearly Tyrolia but I don't know what the engraving "Ski Meisters" refers to. Anyone know more about Anderson & Thompson wood skis and how I could possibly date mine?
