Perry, I believe that tunning the skis that support my abilty to turn and stop in all conditions is vital to me skiing the next day....so, I debur, or resharpen as needed and find if I screw up, it wasn't my skis fault.?


Gary, I thought you were a little bit obsessive until yesterday when Lynn was telling me a story about Harald taking one ski off to remove a burr while riding up the chair.? Even more amazing (to me) was his assertion that he could feel the burr while skiing the previous run. 

So I have to ask, have you ever felt the need to stop just for the purpose of "honing those edges" or only at a lunch break or the end of the day?
