Maine marine engineer cousins crafting custom snow skis

BETHEL — Two cousins in Maine – both marine engineers – have teamed up to design and manufacture recreational skis. The Lewiston Sun Journal reports that 30-year-old Toby Winkler and 24-year-old Jake Bracy started by running their own skis through a table saw to see how they were constructed. Winkler says he read an article about five years ago about a process to manufacture skis and plunged in when friends scoffed at his notion that he could do it. Bracy and Winkler – both graduates of Maine Maritime Academy – are calling their cottage industry YOPP Clandestine Skis.
