The Workshop

Some say that he has hot wax running through his veins; others say that he is a robotic tuning machine in human disguise. We simply know him as Colin, our ski tech and master story teller.

Automatic- robotic tuning machines are only as good as the operator and can shorten the life of a ski or board significantly, that’s why we prefer to hand tune our equipment regularly. We apply this theory to our customer’s valuable equipment. Regular tunes, frequently, means you maximise your enjoyment, and your equipment will perform to its full potential.
