*Ceramic Disk Sharpen is only recommended if you have a flat base. The ceramic disks we use to sharpen equipment cannot sharpen the base bevel if the base is not flat. In some cases, a stone grind (Performance Tune) will be required to get a proper base bevel. This option is more of a side edge sharpen only if the base is not flat.
NEW: Wintersteiger Jupiter Tuning System
We’ve upgraded to the Wintersteiger Jupiter, one of the most advanced ski and snowboard tuning machines in the world.
This fully automated robotic system offers:
- Precision edge tuning.
- V – Edge Technology allowing variable edge angles across the entire ski
- Larger less aggressive angles at the tip and tail, easy steering and entry/exit into and out of turns.
- In the middle, dynamic edge angle for best grip and guidance on all snow types
- Custom base structuring for all snow conditions
Whether you're carving groomers or dropping into powder, the Jupiter delivers a factory-fresh tune every time.
Benefits to Customers:
- Enhanced speed of service
- Consistent quality of tuning
- Custom tuning – get your equipment tuned just the way you like it
Why Tune Regularly?
- More Control: Sharper edges mean better carving and stopping power
- Smoother Ride: Structured bases glide faster and handle better
- Longer Gear Life: Regular waxing prevents base drying
Importance of Ski Binding Adjustment
Proper ski binding adjustment is essential for your safety on the slopes. Bindings must be set according to an international safety standard, using precise calculations based on your height, weight, age, ski boot sole length, and skier ability level.
When correctly adjusted, your bindings keep you securely connected to your skis during normal skiing. In the event of a fall or crash, they are designed to release, helping to minimize the risk of injury.
It's also important to note that bindings have a limited lifespan. Each year, a list of indemnified bindings is published to identify which models are still considered safe and supported by manufacturers. Once a binding is no longer on this list, it is considered unsafe for use.
We use a Wintersteiger Speedtronic Calibrator, which is itself professionally calibrated every year, to ensure your bindings are tested and adjusted with the highest accuracy.
Don’t wait until it’s too late. Have your ski bindings inspected and calibrated annually to ensure your safety on the mountain.
