[@consciousmachine413]

I have no children, but your daughter is ADORABLE! god bless you all!!!

[@hobojordo]

Haha thanks! I agree ;).

[@misty4411]

Would be interested in seeing a video where you go over your connection to the Evenki. I think it’s awesome you lived with them and the fact that they ride reindeer blows my mind.

[@hobojordo]

That would take several videos! ;). Maybe I could make some about different stories from there

[@hatzlmike1]

I am sure you know Nik. Thanks for a this. Makes me feel at home.

[@jessicat3951]

I want to make these for my brother. I love this video! ♥️

[@JulienKozak]

Man please finish this series. I've been wanting some skis like this for years. Started on traditional snowshoes and mukluks - nice, but tiring to lift legs, then moved to modern fat skis - works fine, but can't really use with mukluks, and doesn't have that traditional charm.

[@BeerseekerAaki]

Big fan Jordan. Alone was great, Evenki videos are nuts!!

[@ericinnis]

Oh heck yeah, was thinking of buying a pair but I would love to make them instead!

I subscribed just for this. Thank you!

[@hobojordo]

@@hobojordo I'm a carpenter in Michigan looking for a retirement gig in a few years. I'll try to make that happen and give you creds if it does.

[@RichardXTwist]

I love this! More please

[@RatkaWreckz]

I love how you share your knowledge with us. Thank you. You learned this in Siberia I imagine?

[@VahidCullsberg]

Nice project

This is a godsend! PLEASE, don't ever take this video down! Like/Subscribe/Bell

[@hobojordo]

Ha thanks...have a few updates I should add if your gonna make a pair

[@deltafour1212]

@@hobojordo Oh trust me, I AM going to be making some. You probably worked the bugs out of your design so I'll hold off for your updates so I don't make the same mistakes. ;)

[@hobojordo]

@@deltafour1212 well it's all there... I'd use fresh (or frozen) scraped hides so you can get them to stretch a bit onto the bottom after you we them.. not a big difference, these worked fine..but then I'd cut the edges straight so there is less resistance - like a strip

[@deltafour1212]

@@hobojordo Thank you!

[@MySynthDungeon]

Excellent !!Cheers!!

[@jasondalton6111]

So, I subbed your channel along with some of the best folks from Alone, and I see some of your early vids in Lynchburg. I'm from there. Did you grow up/go to school there?

[@hobojordo]

Hi thanks, no I grew up in Idaho but have been in Lynchburg since about 2006 ( minus some time in Russia)

[@larsandersson4394]

Larch is a usual tree for skimaking in Northeast russia?

[@hobojordo]

I haven't seen them make skis out of larch, but I wouldn't be surprised if they do somewhere... I had some made out of Siberian pine which I know isn't normal either but they worked well

[@benm5913]

Did you use the money to start a milling service? That's pretty darn cool.

[@mrMacGoover]

you should invest in a blue tooth microphone so your voice can be heard better in your videos.

[@shmohnshmohn1700]

Yes, please! I have my speakers to the max and I can barely hear him.
