An easy-on-the-wallet alternative to hot waxing. It doesn't penetrate the base or last nearly as long, but it's there when you need a quick refresh. (Not eligible for the RS1 race wax upgrade.)
Baked in with our infrared waxing machine — the same tech the pros use — so it soaks in deep for a longer-lasting, faster glide. From there, it's all hand work: we scrape and buff every piece until the base is slicker than a greased pig.
Hot wax plus edge sharpening. Our pros dial in a precise razor edge without grinding away more metal than needed, which only weakens it over time. Our machine is checked constantly for calibration, so every edge comes back sharp, accurate, and ready for high-G turns.
Hot wax, edge sharpening, and a base grind — three belts (80, 100, and 120 grit) flatten the base, then a final tanzanite belt lays down light structure for a silky-smooth glide. We're mindful about how much material we remove, and we never grind a base that's already too thin.
A friendly, family-run tune shop that loves working with first-timers and seasoned powder hounds alike.
With us for 5 years, after a decade at Mammoth Mountain Resort. Every wax job goes through his hands. Off the clock, he's in the park, boosting jumps and hitting rails.
Handles edges, repairs, and binding work, bringing 25+ years of professional tuning experience to every job. He's run Stubborn Goat for 10+ years and has two young groms of his own. Off the clock, he's ripping G-turns on his alpine race setup.
A base patch is one way we repair a large core shot — here's what it looks like start to finish.
We take a close look at the damage and prep the area before work begins.
→
The damaged base material is cut away cleanly, leaving a solid surface for the patch to bond to.
→
A patch is cut and shaped to match the void exactly.
→
The patch is set with a slow-cure epoxy resin and clamped down tight while it bonds.
→
The patch is painstakingly leveled flush with the base for a bomb-proof repair.
A P-tex weld is how we fix a deep gouge that's too big for a simple base fill — here's what it looks like start to finish.
We cut out the damaged material, bevel the edges, and clean the area thoroughly — then warm the surface with a heat gun before welding.
→
We apply a metal-grip primer to the edge surface, then fire up the base welder and weld in new P-tex material.
→
This is the difficult, time-consuming step — we patiently remove all the excess material by hand with a metal scraper and a planer, then finish it off on the base grinder.
→
The final step in finishing up the tune — a fresh edge and a full wax so it's ready to ride.
