Hot wax so you can send it! Speed is your friend you can ask about our layered and specialty waxes for the ultimate moist glide. The area to detune will be all the way around the nose and tail to the widest point of the board and then a little over an inch in beyond that.

I couldn't quite understand what you meant by 'outside' and 'inside' with the marker - is outside the base and inside the top? Going back to a lesser angle harder than going to a steeper angle, so you're taking the right approach.We have the highest of standards when it comes to board / ski performance. 1 degree is going to stop your catching edges so easily when riding flat. Over time you can play with that to see what the difference is.Ĩ9 and 1 degree is fine. It is much easier to clean up and sharpen your deck after every two days of riding.įour: dull off the tip and tail a bit - it makes the hook up of the edge less on/off. It will be really obvious when you are pushing hard, which way it bites in. Will I get charged an excess baggage fee if my snowboard bag contains a helmet, gloves, goggles, a camelbak backpack, snow-pants, snowboard boots, a snowboard with bindings, and a snowboard without bindings with a total weight of 45 pounds and a bag. What crackson said about the directionality is important. Have some toilet paper to wipe the filings off your board so you don't grind them into the base. Take a file and work it across the edge at each contact point. And don't worry: since most of the pressure when you’re riding is applied to the edge right under your bindings, you’ll still have enough hold. Make sure you brush them out of the file guide. Place your snowboard sideways on a smooth surface where the edge touches the ground towards each end is the area that can be de-tuned. You're filing hardened stainless steel here. Your file guide may accept the dimond stone into it. You also use this to finish up, so you get it nice and sharp. It’s the section of edge that’s most likely to catch on hardpack. You can use that to take all the burs of your edges as this will wreck your file. Find the widest part of your board at the nose and tail that’s called the contact point. Do i just need to take more off? Should i be filing down the base edge until there is no more rounded tips?įirst: Get a diamond stone. So what have i done wrong / not done properly. I accept that the few large gouge marks on the edge are irripairable, but these are not severe and have only just rounded the very tip of the edge. But for the majority of the edge, the very edge tips are still slightly rounded from small encounters with rocks ect. Theres a few small sharp sections, which are neat and are the result i was looking for i think. I did the side edge next then took a look. I've made quite a few passes over the base edge, its a definite improvement in smoothness, but it doesnt seem to have much effect on the very tip of the edge. First thing i noticed was that it was removing the marker from the inside out, rather than outside in as i had expected. I coloured in the edges with marker and began draging. I decided on 1degree base edge and an 89 degree side edge, which my combi sharp file guide supports. I've watched countless videos, so I've got the theory down but I've just had a go at my first edge and have had some mixed results. Got myself a edge tuning starters kit to tidy up the edges on my snowboard.
