Q: Will you tune a ski with a non-indemnified binding?Ī: Sure, we would be happy to. If you binding is not on the current list, we will not be able to service, test, or mount them. With age and use, bindings become unsafe and we strictly adhere to the bindings manufactures “indemnified binding” list which is published yearly, and list the bindings they consider safe. Q: Do I need an appointment for ski tune shop work?Ī: No, you can drop off your skis/boards any time during our business hours and we’ll get them checked in for you.Ī: No, we only mount bindings that we are certified for, which is most of the bindings on the market.Ī: We will mount any binding that we are certified for and are still indemnified. We usually use BAF and one of their 2 most popular temperature waxes, but also carry One Ball, Swix, and many others. Q: Do you offer different temperature waxes?Ī: Of course, and we are also happy to apply most waxes (we will not apply some of the highly toxic waxes) you bring in. If it is worth repairing in our opinion, we will always give you an estimate before we start the work. In some instances, we may need to do some work to determine if it is worth repairing, in those cases you will be charged shop time for the assessment. If it’s not, we will tell you and explain why. Work will be completed by the agreed upon return time, or you will be contacted via text or voice if things are ready early.Ī: If its worth repairing, we will repair it. As a general rule of thumb we aim to keep everything within 48 to 72 hours. Q: What is your turn-around time for ski and board tunes and shop work? How will I know when they are done?Ī: Turnaround time varies depending on what work needs to be done and how busy our shop is. We can offer you any bevel degree, but our default is 1 degree side and 1 degree edge. Most shops run everything through a grinder regardless of the need, to save time……NOT US…ever.Įdging: We do use the help of a machine for edging in most cases, unless hand edging is requested, but it is a machine that is gentle, and controlled by hand pressure as opposed to a mechanically operated edger that removes lots of metal regardless of how bad the edge is. This will extend the life of your skis exponentially. We are also proud to say that we mount Binding Freedom, which allows you to switch your alpine, and AT ski bindings between skis, like a snowboard binding.īase Repair: Our philosophy with base repair is to add material, not remove it and in-turn your skis will not be run over a grinder when not absolutely necessary. All the waxes we use are non toxic, as opposed to many of the dangerous popular waxes that pollute our universe in both the manufacturing process, and in the watershed that they enter when the snow melts.īinding Mounts: We mount most AT/Backcountry, Alpine, Cross Country, Snowboard, and tele bindings. We also offer many SWIX and One Ball waxes, but they are only used when requested. Waxing: Our go to wax is BAF, which is manufactured in Cedaredge, CO and used by many ski schools around the USA. #Detune board professionalWe have the quickest turn around on the front range/Boulder and stive to offer a 48 to 72 hour turn time.Ĭertifications: All of our professional shop technicians are certified to work on Marker, Tyrolia, Salomon, Dynafit, G3, Black Diamond, and other binding brands, in addition to being certified by Vermont Calibrator for binding torque testing. We quickly grew into a full-fledged ski and board shop but we have not lost our roots, which is high quality hand tunes by passionate, shred loving folks.
