If it's at my local mtn and I'm returning home, every ski day will have a fresh wax. If I am on a trip every couple of days.

I work in a shop so I pTex, wax, sharpen, deburr, etc. whenever I think I need it. And commonly, at LEAST once a week.

Only wax usually, don't like to sharpen/base grind due it taking life out of the ski.

Whenever I feel motivated to or like I'm going too slow. If my bases are starting to cloud/dry out then I'll get them done right away.

When I start noticing my speed dropping, and just to keep them in good condition 1 or 2 times a week when skiing, and leave thick layer of wax on over the sumer or when not using them for a bit.
