Ride Delaware ? Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 While I was at Elk Mountain in late Feb/Early March exploring some off piste powder, I had my edge of the base pushed in, the metal edge split, and the bottom pushed out . The elk repair guy said he could replace the edge and fix the base in a day for $28. I went to Happy Tunes in Sugarloaf, ME and they only repair and tune, and he said the same fix would take him a week and $150. I got the base beat down, sidewall epoxied, and the entire base resurfaced and flattened for $55. It was as good as new except for the crack in the metal edge which I just need to keep an eye on in case it pulls out. Is there any shop that specifically tunes and is excellent at it? I mean, I loved the job so much in Maine that I want to go there every other year to get my boards fully tuned. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask PhilPug on AlpineZone who he recommends for someone closer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
