Should I detune my Wets?

You should definitely detune them underfoot to the point of edges being more round than sharp

Definitely detune them properly, it will help with longevity as well as not catching and dying. My test pair were razor sharp out of the box, I would not even dream of hitting a rail on them like that without a detune.

Yeah that's what I figured. Holy smokes are the sharp and they stick out pretty far too. I've never detuned skis before. I always rode K2 and Line in the past and never had an issue with them, especially after sliding a few boxes first or whatever.

Do you have a recommended guide to follow or anything?

An angle grinder works best and quickest. A file will work too. Just carefully put a bevel on the edge underfoot. I've just ground my edges on a convenient rock before when I forgot to detune prior to hitting the park.

If I can, I always do my underfoot edges on the wet grind belt in the workshop (shoutout Ski Bartlett for letting me do this). Takes 1/100th of the time of filing and does a smoother job. I start at a shallow angle (say 10 degrees) and do 4-5 passes underfoot gradually increasing the angle towards 90 degrees (angle of the base relative to the belt). Then I run my finger along and check for how rounded I've gone. I'll apply less pressure (less rounding) if it's a more all-mountain ski and go pretty much fully rounded if it's a pure park/street ski. Then I use an edge file to detune the contact points lightly. If a ski has early taper, I'll detune everything past the taper point as well, for smoother butters.

Just use the edge of the sidewalk at the hill u ski and scrape the hell outta them
