Based in Mountain Ash, We are Wales #1 Ski And Snowboard Servicing company. Established in 2016, for the future, with over 20 years experience in the snow industry, We service Ski’s and Snowboard’s by hand, Not by machine!

We guarantee a better result by hand rather than machine!

From the Original Butta Wax to Graphite Pro Race Butta Wax, we can also service your ski skins for that off-piste hike!

So what exactly does waxing do for your Snowboard or Ski’s?

First the wax increases the glide over the snow, meaning your Snowboard/Skis will run faster and smoother on the snow (especially on warm, slushy Spring days) Also, the build-up of wax acts as protection against rocks and rails etc, absorbing the small cuts, gouges and anything else that might otherwise damage the base material during the course of the day. Long-term damage will cause scarring of the base and graphics. This will affect the base performance. Finally, the use of wax prolongs the durability of the Snowboard/Skis meaning a longer-lasting investment for you!

When some people will wax their snowboards/skis each time they hit the hill, the general consensus seems to be that waxing once every two or three times you ride is enough to reap the benefits. Additionally, some riders apply a coat of wax (but don’t scrape it) before storing the Snowboard/Ski for the Summer to keep them from oxidising.

The difference between Sintered and extruded base:

Sintered bases are faster than extruded bases. But they require more maintenance (waxing) to keep them in good shape. If you wax regularly, a sintered base is going to be faster than a waxed extruded base. If you don’t wax your equipment, a non waxed extruded base will be faster than a non waxed sintered base. An extruded base is formed by heat, so there are not any/or allot less pours to hold wax, where an extruded base is formed with pressure so there is more pours to soak up the wax. Most high-end snowboards now seem to be sintered. Some park snowboards are extruded. Low end could be either but typically extruded.

Ski skins lost their stick?

We can even reglue! Don’t forget, those skins will need a service too!! Look after your equipment and it will look after you!
