ok. buy an edge sharpener. (hand held not electric heh) and think about sharpening ur edges inbetween the sidewall and the base. cuz you sharpen the base, then the side...so go inbetween the two and it will dull em. ya know, sharpener like, parallel to the right angle of the edge, not the flat base or the flat side. get it?

to dull edges, just go buy yourself a 'gumby' (or 'soft') stone. and rub away! won't give ya burs and actually takes 'em out when you get em.

lol, Im sorry, but know of you guys know anything about ski tuning, if you want to resharpen your endges you need some files, some diomond stone and some gummy stones to take out the burs, you also need a file guide for the side wall and bottom edge, I suggest using about a 1 degree cut for both sides.

...uhhh, you dont really need to dull your edges at all. People have probably been talking about grinding the edges down under the boot, so you wont get hung up on rails. Otherwise you dont really need to detune anything. If you want to sharpen your edges buy a tuning guide at like the tognar site or togar, whatever the fuck it is and a good tool.
