YouTube channel Echo Sierra Enroute documented the unlucky a part of early-season snowboarding all of us expertise: getting our skis tuned the pure approach.
Certain, you may go drop your skis off at your native ski store and get a base grind for $70, or you are able to do it your self and get particles throughout your ground, or you may simply, you realize… ski!
In a video titled “Natural Ski Edge Sharpening. How To Get The Sharpest Edge,” (we love an ironic king, let’s keep in mind, snowboarding is meant to be for enjoyable, proper?) the YouTuber exhibits some enjoyable wanting POV footage of a pleasant backcountry-style run, till he traverses over to a bit characteristic, and it seems the protection simply is not what he anticipated.
This skier-gone-YouTuber does another rad stuff moreover displaying off sharpening expertise.
Like these strains, under. Pillows, straightlines, he does all of it.
To be sincere, with this season going the best way it’s (sure, we had an awesome storm and a pair powder days, however it’s nonetheless thinner than preferrred) this occurs so much.
You are by no means protected from scraping up your skis. The final word query although, is do you simply use your rock skis till the bottom is correctly lined, or do you say, “to heck with it” and plan to hit rocks on function (hopefully going over them and never on them, however you realize what I imply).
Better of luck, everybody. Rocks are a part of a snowboarding life. You simply gotta roll with it and see the brilliant facet, like this skier, who noticed it as a free tune, even!
