letting your skiboards last longer/boots

[bloodshot]

1.what do you guys do to increase the lifespan of your boards? (like when i should hot wax/rub on wax my skiboards and etc.)


2.and what kind of boots fit in the line ff pro bindings?

[Greco]

all ski boots and hard shell alpine snowboarding boots (raichle/deeluxe (http://www.skiboardsonline.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=SBOL&Category_Code=boots)) will work with the ff pro (http://www.skiboardsonline.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=SBOL&Product_Code=line_01_02_ffpro&Category_Code=line_bindings).

basic steps to make your boards last longer is to dry them off completely after you ride and hot wax them a couple times a year at minimum. however the single most effective thing you can do to save your boards is not hit rails. rails kill boards, all boards. but for some it's not an option to avoid sliding. however, the older you get the easier it is to fight the urge to jib.

i got rust on my boards already from sitting in the garage. what can i use to get it off? and is there a special method?

i also have an indent in one of my boards that is less than a cm long & like 3 mm wide. its like 1 mm deep but noticeable. Will this affect my ride? How could i fix it?

[Jeff Miles]

umm for one thing dont leave ur boards inside ur garage...horrible for rusting..of course u allready know that..but i rewax (hot wax) and then put them in a ski bag and store them for next season..and my broken or unusable boards i put up on my wall for novelties and what not

the wax takes off the rust?
or were you talking about the little indent..

[Roussel]

the little indent wont do anything but if u want to fix it u can fill it with p-tex.

sharpening your edges will get rid of the rust.

But does it improve your carving abilities?
