I've been watching ski and snowboard tuning videos for a week now, to make some money this winter in Chile, and this is by far, THE BEST of them all, I really appreciate it, thank you.
Nice! I've never done the 2 wax method he showed. That's interesting. Also it cracks me up I spend most of my time buffing... several brushes and then several scotch brite pads! I guess I could dial it back a bit! Great video!
@@DanNoakes bummer would love to follow you on that. COuld learn a lot about your decision making in the mountains, what gear you use, and a bit more about you!
Dare accepted! Different manufacturers of tools have different measurements. SVST has 91, others will have 89. Mike is a pro and he does know how to measure angles. Here is a link for you so you can see a 91 degree angle tool. 690685.shop.netsuite.com/s.nl/it.A/id.6901/c.690685/n.1/.f?sc=33&category=80
@@DanNoakescool info. There is actualy a company that does not know how to measure angles. If you measure an angle of an object, you measure the object, not the empty space on the other side. It looks like Mike knows what he is doing, sure. But pros in FIS WC measure right.
There are multiple companies that use 91 degrees for the side edge. Here is another example, scroll down the page www.sidecut.com/product/KIT_BSC_SHARP.html
Check out this site too. “A typical base bevel is from 0.5-1 degrees. A file guide will call a one degree bevel either 89 or 91 degrees. Same difference.” www.skituning101.com/2008/11/part-2-sharpening-base-edge.html?m=1
@@DanNoakes great info. Cherry picking much? All the largest manufacturers, like Snoli, Holmenkol, Skiman, Toko, they all have proper angle measurements. Check it out. Or find another ski blog from Colorado or wherever and call it a credible source.
