Tuning & Mounts
Need a ski or board tune? We have you covered at the Tahoe Sports Hub. We have a full service backshop at the Hub and our techs would love to get your setup dialed in. Here is a breakdown of services that we provide.
Three different options to wax your setup and keep you sliding fast. A buff wax is a temporary fix if you are very short on time. If you have twenty or thirty minutes a hot wax is going to be significantly better and longer lasting. Better yet, upgrade to our premium wax option and we will hot scrape your setup to get remove old wax and dirt, then follow up with a blend of high end temperature specific waxes.
Running your skis or boards through our ceramic edging machine is the best way to clean up and sharpen your edges or even just reset base and edge angles to exactly what you want.
Stone grinding your bases can be done for a variety. It can be used to get your bases flat so you are not edge high or riding on an uneven base surface. This significantly improve the ride quality and give your skis a consistent and predictable feel. Stone grinding can also be used to add structure to your base which helps retain wax and improve how fast your base is, especially in regions with a wetter snowpack like Tahoe.
Base repair, edge replacement, delamination fixes. Our guys in the backshop have an incredible amount of experience repairing damaged skis and boards. They can really bring your setup back to life if needed. Professionally base welding core shots and large scratches is infinitely better than a quick ptex fix. Blew an edge on your new skis? We can fix that too with the ability to remove and replace edges. Even the dreaded delam is something we can usually mend.
Ski mounting and snowboard setup is also a specialty at the shop. Whether it’s an alpine binding, touring binding, or telemark our mount techs are dialed. We can also help get snowboard bindings installed and adjusted to the boot. We also have very knowledgeable snowboard staff to get your splitboard hardware and bindings installed.
We offer three levels of tune work depending on your needs.
Bronze Tune $59 : Machined edge tune, hot wax
Silver Tune $79 : Stonegrind, machined edge tune, hot wax
Gold Tune $99 : Repair any and all base damage, stonegrind, machined edge tune, hot wax.
Premium Wax upgrade adds $15 to any of our tunes.
