What I mean by bowed is concave. When laid flat (on snow) the middle of the ski base is further from the snow than are the sides. This is different that edge high which comes from a flat (o degree base bevel). All three pairs of Fischer ski that I own have some amount of concave base especailly from the toe piece to the tip. When this is the cae in my experience, base grinding actually makes them worse.

All Fsicher skis come from the factory at 3 degrees side and 1 degree base and that's where I keep them.
