Freeride Tune
Built for skiers who charge big lines, steep chutes, and variable snow.
Service Description
Handcrafted performance for skiers who charge big lines, steep chutes, and variable snow. Turnaround: 24-48 hours The Freeride Tune is built for power, control, and confidence in complex terrain — from technical descents at Treble Cone to boot-packed ridge lines and heli drops. As Wānaka’s only ski-dedicated tuning workshop, this service is handcrafted to meet the demands of aggressive freeride skiers. Every element — from edge angles to base structure — is tuned by hand for maximum precision, flow, and speed control in dynamic snow conditions. Whether you're hitting cliffs, navigating couloirs, or simply skiing fast in complex terrain, this tune delivers the edge hold and glide you need to stay composed and in control. This tune includes: 1. Aggressive Edge Beveling — Hand-set edges for strong bite on steep faces and through high-pressure turns. 2. Custom Base Structuring — Tailored textures that glide through chalk, wind buff, and storm snow with ease. 3. Durable Hot Waxing — Hand-brushed layers built for variable alpine temps and sustained descents. 4. Precision Finish — Final pass by hand for smooth flex transitions, powerful grip, and ultimate confidence on edge. Built for freeriders who demand feel, flow, and trust in their gear — even when the snow and terrain don’t play nice. 💡 Optional Add-Ons (select during booking): ⚡ Express Turnaround — $15 Need your freeride setup dialled for tomorrow’s window?
