Waxing

Waxing is the most basic, and most essential, service you can have done to your skis. Well waxed skis will help you glide faster and easier, and they’ll also help to keep your skis in better condition by repelling water.

Stone Grinding

Stone grinding is the best way to maintain the base of your classic skis. By removing a minimal amount of base material, we can ensure that your skis are perfectly flat and that the groove in the center is the perfect depth. We also have specific patterns that can help solve your unique problem. This will allow you to glide faster and easier, and it will also make your skis more enjoyable to ski on.
