Maintenance kits: a must for optimal performance in the snow
As an avid snowboarder, you know that maintaining your snowboard is critical to ensure maximum performance and fun on the slopes. A well-maintained snowboard glides smoothly on the snow, offers better control and lasts longer. To keep your snowboard in top condition, a complete snowboard maintenance kit is a must-have. We have a wide range of snowboard maintenance kits, composed of high-quality products from renowned brands such as Oneball, Dakine, , and Holmenkol.
Maintenance kit for waxing a snowboard or ski
Most winter sports enthusiasts have their ski or snowboard waxed once a year. Is that enough maintenance for your ski or snowboard? That depends on several factors. The friction of your base with the snow creates a thin film of water. This water will have to be drained if you want to glide. Wax accelerates the water drainage. If you go on a week-long ski trip and the snow is wet due to high temperatures, the base of your ski or snowboard will lose its wax faster than when it is freezing cold. In most stores, skis and snowboards are waxed by machine. That in itself is fine. However, it does not get the maximum wax into your base. We recommend waxing your snowboard or ski with hot wax applied with a wax iron. In our maintenance sets you will find all the necessary items to maintain your base for maximum gliding performance.
Maintenance sets for sharpening the steel edges
When you always expect good grips, regular steel edge sharpening is a must. We offer maintenance sets that contain all the necessary items to sharpen the steel edges of your ski or snowboard so you will always experience perfect grip. We often get the question; How often should you sharpen? It depends in what conditions you have been skiing or snowboarding. If the slope is quite icy, it is logical that the steel edge will become blunt and less sharp faster. Is there not much snow and are there pebbles visible? Then you will soon have burrs on the steel edge.
Do your own maintenance with a complete maintenance set
Are you planning to maintain your ski or snowboard yourself? Then a good and complete maintenance set should not be missing. Maybe in the beginning you find it a bit exciting to get started yourself. Self-maintenance is not higher math. If you are a bit handy and have a maintenance set to wax and sharpen your ski or snowboard yourself, you will definitely succeed. You will soon notice that you are getting better at it. The best part is that you also experience a better result than when you take your ski or snowboard to the shop for maintenance.
