A tuning bench that folds. This is the bench for people who tune where the skis are — at a race, in a hotel car park, in a garage that has to be a garage again by morning — rather than in a dedicated wax room.
Aluminium is the compromise that makes that work: stiff enough to give a stable platform under a scraper pass, light enough that carrying it to a race is not a decision you regret.
- Lightweight aluminium construction
- Folding design for transport and storage
- Stable platform for waxing, edge tuning and base repair
- Works with standard ski vises and tuning tools
- Suited to race rooms, team travel and home setups
Buy the vises separately and buy them well. A bench holds the working height; the vises hold the ski. Most of the stability you feel when tuning comes from how firmly the ski is clamped, so a good bench with poor vises still gives you a ski that creeps under the file.
Working height matters more than people expect — a bench that is too low means bending over every pass, which is the real reason a long tuning session becomes unpleasant.
Pair with benches and vises, tuning tools and waxing equipment. Ours is a shop that tunes skis daily — call 1-800-741-3985 if you want help putting a bench together.
