The most advanced sharpening set on the market
With the Tuning-File, it is easy to quickly and precisely tune any kind of skis and snowboards. The sharpening angle can be adjusted from 0 ° to 6 ° (recommended angles). In its soft pouch, the Tuning-File (77 x 30 x 50 mm) (3 '' x 1 1/4 '' x 2 '') fits easily in the pocket for on slope re-sharpening (edge damage or icy conditions).
The patented Tuning-File solves 4 sharpening problems thanks to the following innovations :
Problem 1:The tool tips away easily because its design does not offer a stable enough support against the base.
Our solution : our exclusive design means the whole handle is positioned against the base and no part overlaps. The pressure against the base is uniform, as strong at the bottom as at the top, which prevents the tool from tilting away.
Problem 2 : the file slips on the edge surface which has been cold worked (hardened) by stones or by machine sharpening applied with too much force.
Our solution : before filing, restore a normal hardness to the edges by pre-grinding with the abrasive diamond on the back of the file.
Problem 3 : steel chips produced by the filing of the edge are often crushed and embedded in the base as a result of the movement of the tool
Our solution : the tool is fitted with an elastic polyester membrane that automatically drives the steel chips away from the base.
Problem 4 : the plastic which runs along the edge prevents the files from easily cutting the steel.
Our solution : The tungsten carbide plane, which is fixed to the handle, easily clears the edge. It does not need any setting and stops automatically when a sufficient depth of plastic is removed.
A : Plastics, ABS, etc.
The Tuning-File RACE file is made of metal-ceramics, whose hardness lies between diamond and regular file steel. It therefore offers an exceptional cut and wear resistance.

To take care of the base edge(edge bevel) before sharpening the edge side.
The secret of manoeuverability and steering precision of skis and snowboards is a polished base edge, without rust, marking or too many scratches.
Long diamond files (150 x 20 mm) (6 '' x 3/4 '') and the Race bevel file are inserted into our file-guides where they can slide freely giving uniform wear over the entire surface of the diamond. Without freely sliding, wear appears in grooves with the undesirable effect of rounding the edge
