3. Waxing for Conditions – Apply the perfect wax for glide and durability in every snow type

🔍 Base Edge vs Side Edge: What’s the Difference?

Understanding your edges is the first step in tuning mastery. Here’s the breakdown:

🔹 Base-Edge Beveling – is the slight angle applied to the bottom edge of your skis or snowboard. This makes your gear feel smoother and more forgiving, helps you start and finish turns cleanly without catching, and sets the foundation for precise edge control.

🔸 Side-Edge Sharpening –focuses on the side edge, where your grip really happens. A sharp side edge gives you more control on icy or hard-packed snow, increases responsiveness and turn precision, and improves carving ability and downhill confidence.

Pro tip: The base edge controls how easily you enter a turn. The side edge determines how well you hold it.
