How often should I get my skis tuned?

For regular skiers (10+ days per season), we recommend a full tune every 10-15 ski days. More frequent skiers may benefit from more regular edge touch-ups and waxing.

What's the difference between the Basic and All Mountain tune?

The All Mountain tune includes more comprehensive edge work, a more specialized base structure, and higher-quality wax application compared to the Basic tune. It's designed for skiers who demand higher performance across varied terrain.

How long does the service take?

Standard turnaround time is 24-48 hours. We offer expedited service for an additional fee, which can be completed same-day if dropped off before 10am.

Can I specify my edge angle preferences?

Our technicians can customize edge angles based on your skiing style and preferences. Just let us know when you drop off your skis.

Do you offer seasonal tune packages?

Yes, we offer seasonal maintenance packages that include multiple tunes at a discounted rate. Ask our staff about our Season Pass tune package.

How often do skis need a tune or wax in Colorado’s freeze-thaw winter conditions?

With Boulder’s nightly freezes and daytime thaws—especially on Flagstaff-facing slopes—you’ll want a hot wax every 3–4 outings(or roughly every 50–75 miles) to combat sticky corn snow and dry base. Plan a full tune (edge grind + base structure) about three times a season during peak times or any time you notice drag on groomer laps at Eldora.

Where’s the closest ski tuning shop to downtown Boulder, and how long does a full tune take?

We’re at 2709 Spruce St, just off Broadway a 3-minute stroll north of the Boulder Theatre and Pearl Street Mall. A standard full tune—base grind, edge work, structure and hot wax—turns around in 24–48 hours during December–February; mid-week drop-offs often get next-day service.
