Personally I am a hands on type of person and love to do this sort of stuff myself.

Keywords being "sort of stuff" 

I've never tackled a pair of ski's before, in fact I just got the very first pair of Skis that I own! (Fischer amc 76 RF2)

However like I say I am very good with my hands (always have been). I saw a DVD that had a little about Ski repair and waxing, it looked like something I could do. I am also a researcher though and thoroughly investigate all options before taking on any task and therefore I though I'd ask for tips/tricks/advice on methods and equipment to use.

I'm guessing as with most things theres lots of different ways to do things depending on ski type/edge angle etc etc.

However I don't want to open my own Ski repair shop I simply want to be able to keep my edges sharp and the Skis waxed (perhaps repair the odd by mark on the bottom of the Ski). Rather than pay ?25 ($50) a go to a Ski shop for a quick wax and edge.

Can you offer any advice?

Also: Having a pair of boots fitted this week in England by a reputable boot fitter, would it be OK to post of review of my experience? For me it would be good to see if the process differs from your side of the pond.

Thanks
