Ottawa Masters Tips and Tricks

Tommy and Lefebvre Pro Tune-Up Tip

When should I tune up?
In general, how often you tune depends on a number of factors:
- snow conditions,
- terrain (including rails, tables, logs, etc.)
- and the level of performance you are looking for.

A fall tune up when you take your board out of the basement and a tune-up every 7 to 10 times on the hill should provide consistent performance. A pocket stone and daily wax are also recommended for best performance between full tune-ups. Any significant base or edge damage should be dealt with right away to prevent further damages.
