Like the title says....
My favorite shop guy is Eddie at Martock. When I used to race he would do all the work on our skis. Through the years he was shown me a whole bucnh and taught me how to tune my skis properly. he allows me to use his equipment and stuff and for little things he won't charge me. He is the only one that I will let touch my skis if i need something done to them that I can't do. He is awesome.
Who is your guys fav shop tech and why?

this guy Kyle at my shop is so ill. I needed boots for this season and i didnt have a whole lot of cash after getting my skis, so he cut the price on the 1080 from $275 to $200 for me. he also hooks me up with small stuff and if there is somthing that i nee and they dont have it, either kyle or this guy Paul will find it for me. talk about service!
