Swix Base-Side Dual Edger Ski Snowboard Tool with Metal File 9 Angles
By:
RaceWax
Side and base edge bevel multi tool that includes a file. This one tool is all you need to sharpen and bevel your edges.
NOTE: 80 mm is the maximum length file or stone that will fit into this tool. 70- or 80-mm stones are recommended.
Dial a precise side angle from 0 degree to 5 degrees and 0.5 to 1.0 degree on the base. Nine angles total.
It is recommended that you set the edge bevels with the file and then replace the file with 70- or 80-mm diamond stones to maintain the sharpness; if you always use the metal file, you will wear away the edge. The blue 70-mm RaceWax stone or the yellow 80-mm Swix stone are good starters, a black RaceWax or red Swix are the next most used; add the whole set of grits if you are a racer.
Bonus Benefit for this tool: If you don't know what base and side angles your ski/board are set to, this tool can help you find them. Before you start mark the metal edge with a sharpie, start the tool at the lowest angle and see if it removes the marking on your edge. Raise the angle step-wise and repeat until it removes the mark. That is your angle! Record the base/side angles for future reference.
Detailed edge tuning instructions are located under Tuning Tips in the top menu.

Which edge tool? A multitool (side & base in one tool) or dedicated tools (one tool for each angle)?
Multitools are more convenient and simple to use. They provide precise results even for the novice. This is a great choice for the beginners and is a tool that will do everything a casual skier/boarder will need to do for a lifetime, and is a great choice for a family with skiers/boarders of different ages and sizes. A disadvantage is they can only use certain size stones (diamonds are not a problem, but a ceramic or Arkansas stone will not fit.
Fixed angle bevel guides are devices that tend to be dedicated to one angle (though there are some models with shims that are more flexible). It's advantage is that it can use any stone of any size. You have a greater feel for the cutting process with dedicated tools.
The amount of base edge bevel will affect the ability of the ski/board to pivot on the snow. The more base edge bevel, the easier it will be to pivot or slide from side to side. Once you set the base edge angle, you can't go back to the original because of the base material. If the skis hook up on turns, increase the bevel by a quarter or half degree.
Side edge beveling will give the skis more grip on the snow surface. Higher angles should be reserved for experienced skiers; if the angle is too high the ski can "rail out" on a less experienced racer. Typical angles are 1.0 to 3.0 degrees. Less angle equals less grip. Slalom angles can be 3.0 to 5.0 degrees; downhill up to 3.0 degrees. A racer should start at 3 degrees.

We only accept electronic payments. Also, please note that due to recent tax changes your state may require sales tax collection on applicable items. If so, Ebay will collect the required tax amount.
International Buyers – Please Note:
We ship most international items via eBay's Global Shipping Program. If you purchase an item that is being shipped through eBay's global shipping program you will pay all fees at checkout so you will owe nothing more at the time of delivery.
If your item ships without using eBay's Global shipping program, import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.
Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying.
Customs fees are normally charged by the shipping company or collected when you pick the item up. These fees are not additional shipping charges.
We won't under-value merchandise or mark the item as a gift on customs forms. Doing that is against U.S. and international laws. For customs purposes, all items will marked with the price paid.
International Shipments which do not use eBay's Global Shipping program are only shipped via USPS and normally take 7 - 14 days for delivery to Canada and may take longer to other parts of the world. However, packages can sometimes be delayed by customs and delivery times cannot be guaranteed.
All Buyers - Please Note:
We ship all items to address on your payment. Please verify that this is correct as we cannot change the address once your item is purchased.
Items are usually shipped within 24 hours of payment.
In the continental US we ship via FedEx, USPS Priority Mail, USPS Parcel Select or USPS First Class Mail (our choice unless you paid extra for FedEx). Depending upon the shipping method, we may request a physical address. Shipping to Alaska or Hawaii will only be done via USPS.
USPS Shipping: Priority mail usually takes 3 - 5 working days but during busy times, may take longer. USPS uses delivery confirmation instead of tracking. According to usps.com, "Delivery confirmation only provides you with a confirmation of delivery date and time once the article has been delivered and scanned at the post office of the addressee - it does not provide for any tracking through the mail stream."
FedEx Shipping: We use FedEx home delivery (unless it is going to a business) which does provide a tracking number.
Notifications: You should receive an email message through eBay messaging notifying you when your item has been shipped. Please pay attention to this message since it will have either the USPS delivery confirmation number in it or the FedEx tracking number.
Feedback: You will receive feedback as soon as you leave positive feedback for your purchase. In the unlikely event that there is a problem, please be sure to contact us before leaving negative or neutral feedback so that we can resolve your problem.
