Do you repair snowboard bindings too?
Yes, during the winter season we also repair snowboard bindings and replace broken buckles, straps, and other parts.
Can you repair the BOA lacing system on snowboard boots?
We repair all kinds of BOA systems and replace their parts, including broken laces. Because there are many types of BOA systems, the workshop may not have every spare part on hand, but we'll get them within 5-10 working days!
How long does a ski service take?
We recommend having your skis serviced in good time: in recent years, as soon as the weather turns wintry, the queue at the service grows and skis take 2-3 days. Otherwise, skis are usually ready the next working day.
Is there a discount for children's skis?
Yes, children's skis up to 120 cm long get 50% off the standard price.
Do you adjust ski bindings?
Yes, our service adjusts the binding size and, if needed, redrills the bindings. Of course, we also set the bindings' DIN release value for your weight. For skis bought from us, this service is free.
How often should skis be serviced?
Skis need a service at least once a year, usually before the ski season starts. If you ski a lot and often, service them more often: 2 or even 3 times a season.
What equipment do you use to service skis?
We work with machines and tools from the Swiss company Montana, and with TOKO and Montana waxes, cleaning, and care products.
