Whats the deal? why does so many ski mfg's just deliver bad tunes, and Im not talking bad tunes as 1/3 vs 1/2 vs 0.5/3 etc. but variable tunes, railed, basehigh, edgehigh etc. I can do some degree understand it on lower end cheaper skis, but on the $$$$$$$$ stuff its just weird
I have 3 new skis at my local place all are $1000+ skis which needs a basegrind to be skiable on firm groomers, since they are 70/80mm range, they will of course see firm snow conditions
1 pair needed so many passes in the grinder that the operator called me, saying theeese will have a SHORT lifespan, they can now only grind them 1 or maybe 2 times and they are done for. the skis are brand new but came so railed and with the base edge so high they had do do this to reset, also pretty much 0 chance of getting a 0.5/3 on them, this was just to get a 1/2 or 1/3 but. He hinted I should talk with the store selling and manufacturer that this was unacceptable, but also said he had have little to no luck with it before.
1pair was base high all over and had baseedge 0.4 some places and up to 2+ some places, and side edges to match the weirdness, + round edges
1 pair just base high with some just pretty round edges
