Mail for help.Help!!

Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Those fine scratches on the bottom of my skis...

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
So you all kindly passed on loads of useful advice about ski servicing....as a result Mr HH has been closeted away most of the season ensuring that I had lovely fresh wax and sharp edges to ski on Very Happy

The trouble is they're covered in fine (and a few not so fine) scratches which he doesn't know what to do with. Deep dings no problem but what to do with the minor stuff? Is there a way of filling them except taking them to a professional to have the base ground? Should we bother....can we just leave them and ignore them, even though they make the skis look tatty?

Advice welcomed from all you experts out there.....

homphomp, I'm not one of the experts ! Shocked

But small scratches do not matter at all ! Mr HH can fill them with a candle, but it's really a waste of a candle and his time.

The only holes that matter are those that are a) deep and b) near the edge. If they are neither of those, then cover them with wax and relax.

Mrs Skis Phat Luvs are in the same state - she says they ski fine - and (believe me) she tells me when they don't.

Hope that helps.

BTW if you want a second opinion, bring them to Bowles (pm me to arrange) and I'll have a look.

homphomp, you kept your skis for a whole season?

(OK, if they are your powder skis, then that's acceptable)
