If you're keen on maximizing the lifespan of your skis and ensuring they stay in tip-top shape, here are a few easy-to-do things:
Dry is good: Always store your skis in a place where they can properly dry. Avoid the roof box overnight.
Wax on, Wax off: An unwaxed base dries out and becomes more prone to breaking.
Edge detune: If you’re a park skier, detune your edges underfoot and they will last longer.
Strap it up: Use ski straps – They minimize wear and tear while handling & transporting your skis.
Topsheet: If you spot damages; grab some epoxy and seal it asap. It prevents moisture from sneaking in.
Don’t discard: Scratched bases and dull edges are easily fixed with a base grind at your local shop.
