If you are actually tuning your gear, there's no better way to do it.

There's also a separate forum for this, with lots of good info:

I repair base damage immediately, deburr edges every other day, wax on downdays, sharpen edges once per year, base grind once per year. Works for me.

It depends what you're doing and what skis you're doing it on. If you have brand new skis stay away from the belt sander and side filer, do that shit by hand. Also, if you like carving and park, you're gonna wanna bevel your edges so that you can do both. And wax of course haha.
