How do I maintain and care for my skis at the end of the season?

Even if not being used, skis are still subject to environmental influences (air humidity, UV rays). That’s why it’s important to maintain your skis in the off-season.

First off, make sure your HEAD skis are completely dry. Clean them with an appropriate cleaner (wax remover). Small damages in the ski surface should be repaired using a repair candle before storing your skis.

Rusty spots on the edges should be removed to avoid rust spreading further.

Afterwards the skis should be waxed with a hot basic wax. Be sure to apply a light layer of wax on the ski edges as well. This will help prevent new rust from occurring.

Skis should be stored in a dry place at a constant temperature. You can safely store your skis laying down or standing up, but not on the base.
