After the edges, we focus on hand waxing the ski or snowboard’s base, by dripping hot all-mountain / all condition wax by Wintersteiger.
We finish the service by scraping excess wax from the ski by hand, and buffing the base to leave the perfect layer of wax.
Who This is For:
Our Edge & Hot Wax Service is considered a traditional ski tuning service, and is suited for skis that don’t require base repair and want to get a wax that lasts longer than a quick wax.
This waxing style lasts longer on the slopes than the quick wax service.
BASIC TUNE SERVICE

Clean the base • Grind the Base • Sharpen & Wax
Hand Wax lasts 5-15 ski days
Overview:
Our Basic Tune includes cleaning the base of your ski or snowboard with high quality base cleaner to remove any corrosion or rust.
Followed by a quick grind using 80 & 100 grit specialty sandpaper on Wintersteiger’s OMEGA SBI to remove scratches and reset the base bevel.
The base grind is followed with de-burring and sharpening your edges to the industry standard. We finish the edges by de-tuning the tips/tails to prevent catching your edge on the slope.
We will then hot wax your skis by hand using an all-mountain wax by Wintersteiger. We finish by hand scraping the wax off the base, and lastly buff the ski base to leave a beautiful and ready to shred ski.
Who This is For:
The Basic Tune is our most popular tune. This tune is great for those looking to get an edge & hot wax plus remove any minor scratches, cosmetic base imperfections, or minor dings in the base of the ski.
This will not fix gashes, deep scratches, or other common base repair issues. Please have our tech look at your ski if you are unsure of what it needs.
Our Basic Tune Service does NOT include any P-Tex work, base repair, edge repair, de-lamination repair, or binding work.

Followed by a Diamond Stone Grind used for restructuring the base of your ski/snowboard. We use the Wintersteiger Omega SBI for this process, the SBI allows for dozens of structure choices for different performance on the slopes.
After the Stone grind, we will de-burr and sharpen the edges to industry standard. After sharpening the edges, we will de-tune the tip/tail of to reduce hyper-aggressive edge grab, and provide easier turning.
We finish off the tune with a hand wax using Wintersteiger’s All-Mountain/All Temp Wax, followed by hand scraping & buffing the wax off the base and edges.
Who This is For:
The Superior Tune is great for enthusiasts looking to make their base look and feel new again (this will not fix major gashes), or skiers buying a used ski who wish to restore the structure and rideability.
Restructuring the base is great for improving rideability, carving, speed, precision, & more.
This tune can make your ski/snowboard feel new again. We do not recommend restructuring your ski more than once per season.
