realskiers

Well I would totally agree that if you're going to get a base grind...it better be done right or the results are not pretty. Over the years, I think I've done one pair.

My biggest concern is that after spring skiing, the bases look like Freddie Krugar used them to deturne his nails. Yes, I've p-texed and waxed...but they just never look the same. Honestly skiing all mountain with them, I don't think I notice the difference even on some fun high speed groomers. Maybe skiing side by side with bases as "smooth as a babies behind" I might notice but there's no money or trophy involved with my skiing. Still...I wonder if these new laser tune machines can put a flat base grind on a pair of skis so they look pretty again.

I'm guessing I'll keep the Kastle 78's till they wear out...probably 4 seasons of hard skiing. Still I want the edges to be right as well as the bases.

Questions is...do the new fangled laser machines providing that "just factory tuned" ...really do just that?
