With us you will find an extensive range of snowboard maintenance kits, assembled with high-quality products from reputable brands such as Oneball, Dakine, and Holmenkol.
Maintenance kit for waxing a snowboard or ski
Most winter sports enthusiasts have their skis or snowboard waxed once a year. Is that enough maintenance for your ski or snowboard? That depends on several factors. From the friction of your base with the snow a thin film of water forms. This water must be removed if you want to glide. Wax accelerates the removal of that water. If you go on a week-long winter 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 shops skis and snowboards are waxed mechanically. That is fine in itself. However, the maximum amount of wax does not get into your base. We therefore recommend waxing your snowboard or ski with hot wax which you apply with a waxing iron. In our maintenance kits you will find all the necessary items to properly maintain your base for maximum glide performance.
Maintenance kits for sharpening the steel edges
If you always expect good grip then regularly sharpening the steel edges is a must. We therefore offer maintenance kits that include all the necessary items with which you can sharpen the steel edge of your ski or snowboard so you always experience perfect grip. We regularly get the question; How often should you sharpen? That depends on the conditions in which you skied or snowboarded. When the slopes are quite icy it is logical that the steel edge will become blunt and less sharp faster. Is there not much snow and are stones visible? Then you will quickly get burrs on the steel edge.
Do your own maintenance with a complete maintenance kit
Are you planning to maintain your ski or snowboard yourself? Then a good and complete maintenance kit should not be missing. Maybe at first you find it a bit intimidating to get started yourself. Doing the maintenance yourself is not rocket science. If you are a bit handy and you own a maintenance kit to wax and sharpen your ski or snowboard yourself, you will certainly succeed. You will quickly notice that you get better and better at it. The best thing is that you will often achieve better results than when you bring your ski or snowboard in for maintenance.
