Ski & snowboard service - make the regular check
With a simple look at the surface and the edges after skiing or snowboarding, you can easily determine whether a service, because of wear
and damage is necessary. For questions you can always contact your competent service personnel of Sport Achleitner in Zell am See.
Blunt, rounded edges
If the edges are worn, skis and snowboards tend to slip when turning constantly. Blunt edges give no support and no security -
especially on hard and icy slopes.
Damage of the surface
If you check your equipment, you should also pay attention to damage to the surface, such as scratches or deep cuts.
Even small scratches may affect the lubricity, if not repaired.
Dry base
In skiing/snowboarding, the wax is removed by friction and the surface will be dry, fibrous and gray. By applying a new layer of wax,
the surface will be treated and the sliding properties will improve; the wax will also provide protection against oxidation.
How often you should perform a ski or snowboard service depends on the snow conditions, the terrain and your personal level of performance and skiing/snowboarding style. Larger surface or edge damage should be treated immediately. Basically, the ski service employees of Sport Achleitner
in Zell am See recommend a service:
- Before the first run in winter
Any existing rust is taken from the edges and the surface is prepared perfectly for the respective snow conditions. - After 5-6 skiing/snowboarding days
This way small and larger surface and edge damage can be repaired, which can influence the sliding characteristics
and stability of the skis or snowboard. - At the end of the season
With an additional thick layer of wax, Sport Achleitner will make your skis or snowboard fit for the summer break.
This protects the edge from corrosion and helps against drying of the coating.
