Replying to Detuning your skis
So everybody knows that park skis should be detune before taking them to rails. Doing this can help prevent edge cracks and catching your sharp edges on a rail. Detuning is usually done by attacking the edge with a file and then maybe a gum stone for the small burs. This works pretty good most of the time. However, I am wondering if there are any other ways you guys detune. In the past I have also given the edge a bevel to raise it a little above the base. Do you guys change the edge degree or do anything else like that? Just exploring more ways to detune new skis, Im a bigger guy (180lbs and 5'10) so edge cracks happen to me a lot.
