If you can tune a fish you should tune a ski



Why tune a ski? - fair question and besides what difference will it make if you’re not a ski racer..... well truth be told, not everyone needs a World Cup finish, but a every skier and boarder (there are a few out there) will benefit from a tune using the same principles as in the big leagues, Early season is a great time to get your skis or board off to your local reputable ski service provider to have the bases restructured and waxed and the edges cleaned, shaped and sharpened before the season hits in full swung. Having your skis/ board initially tuned or reconditioned at the start of the season will make it much easier to care for them throughout the year. some fodder to consider...... Proper ski / board maintenance will give you a better experience each and every day on the slopes and will prolong the life of your equipment. Be sure to keep the tuning & maintenance process as simple and uncomplicated as possible. Be consistent. next time .... your daily 10 step program.
