So I finally purchased a pair of Enforcer 100s paired with Look Pivot 14s. I have been skiing bonafides (I think the 2nd year of them) for several years now. I purchased the skis from my local ski shop in Vermont even though I could have bought the skis a bit cheaper on a pro form. I bought the binding separately and needed them mounted.
I was shocked as it seems like the shop didn't even prepare the base of the ski with fresh wax. They essentially just mounted the binding. Its my fault because I literally grabbed the skis and left without checking.
I was curious as to what folks expect to be done as far as tuning on a new pair of skis and if anything actually needed to be done to brand new skis. I know some people like their tips/tails to be detuned a bit.
I would like to start learning how to at least wax my own skis and then learn more about tuning. Can you mess up waxing your skis?
Can someone recommend a good starter kit to start waxing?
