How to care for a snowboard?

Snowboard tuning has three steps: base repair, edge tuning, and snowboard waxing. During snowboard repair, you need to remove extra base material with a scraper, brush off debris, remove old wax from pores using snowboard base cleaner, and fill scrapes with P-Tex.

How to sharpen snowboard edges?

Snowboard edge sharpening (tuning) is the process of removing rust and burrs that cause drag. Start with filing rough spots using a wetted diamond stone. Use the base as a guide and move slowly. Then, remove minor rust with a gummy stone. Repeat the procedure on the side edges. Apply rubbing alcohol at the end.

How to wax a snowboard?

Prepare the base with rubbing alcohol. Heat snowboard waxing iron up and drip a zigzag line of snowboard wax from tip to tail. Spread it with the iron until it reaches the edges. Scrape excessive wax off with a plastic scraper and brush.
