Hi all and Happy Holidays!

If your not on skis or floats during the winter freeze, what´s your tricks on landing? Sub-zero (Celsius) temperatures here today (+ beautiful low fogs and ice forming on the lakes) and I didn´t rip the valve of the tubes on landing today. It´s happened to me twice before so I´ve made a habit to land intentionally harder to avoid frozen wheel-rims to lock when landing in freezing weather. Of course you need to keep the tubes properly inflated as well. Anyone else had similar experiences?

Just (L-)4 fun/ Jörgen
