How often should I tune my race skis?

Competitive racers typically tune edges before every training session and between race runs. At minimum, edges should be sharpened after every 2-3 days of training. Bases should be waxed daily during training blocks and between every race run when possible. A full base grind and edge reset should be done every 15-20 days of skiing, or whenever the base structure is worn or edges are significantly damaged. Race ski tuning is a constant process—these skis perform their best when meticulously maintained.
