## Description

This MCP server provides specialized tools for analyzing the interaction between snow and ski bases. Use `calculate_friction_metrics` to determine the friction coefficient and glide speed factor based on snow temperature, air temperature, and snow type. You can also use `predict_glide_capability` to assess performance ratings, `get_wax_compatibility` to verify if a specific wax is suitable for current conditions, and `analyze_snow_structure` to understand the microscopic crystal state and moisture availability.

## Tools

### analyze_snow_structure
Provides insights into the microscopic state of the snow to inform friction modeling

### calculate_friction_metrics
Provides a full diagnostic of the current snow-to-base interaction

### get_wax_compatibility
Determines if a specific wax type is suitable for the current environmental conditions

### predict_glide_capability
Answers how well a specific setup will perform relative to a baseline

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the friction coefficient for powder snow at -5°C air temperature and -2°C snow temperature using High-Density Polyethylene?
```

**Response:** 
```
The friction coefficient is 0.045, with a glide speed factor of 0.85. A hard wax is recommended.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is fluorinated wax compatible with slush snow at 2°C and 80% humidity?
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, fluorinated wax is compatible with these conditions, though the risk factor is moderate due to high moisture.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How will my glide perform in granular snow with a friction coefficient of 0.08?
```

**Response:** 
```
The performance rating is Fair, with expected degradation occurring as snow temperature rises.
```
