Ski maintenance...what do I do ??
Started by User in Ski Chatter, 2 Replies
Ideally at the end of the season you should have the bases cleaned and storage wax applied release settings on bindings, then for next season have the bases scraped, sharpen edges and apply wax for skiing, unless there is extensive damage to base do not have a base grind as this reduces life of the skis.
You can pick up liquid wax from Toko or Zardoz not wax make sure bases are clean and dry and apply for storage to protect edges from rust

Would I be correct in saying the rate is set at the day of deposit? i.e your, say £1000, prepayment at 1.20 is set and gives you a credit of E1200 no matter what happens to the exchange rate?

Absoluteley spot on, also there are no fees when you make withdrawals, peace of mind you know exactly where you are before you start
I have had caxton card for some time know the only thing you dont do is use it for deposits on hire cars or checking into hotels
We have for many years now all chipped in and loaded the card as a group first day on trip buy 4 lift passes at say 964euros comparison this week at 1.13 I bought at 1.18 saving £37 we then use the card to pay for everything anything left over great news, never happens though !

Try the grand massif, flaine, samoens, les carroz, morillon all can be reached in around 1hr from Geneva and slightly cheaper than other areas

It depends on the rate at the time you withdraw the cash that can change in the next 24hrs
I have bought today at 1.1838 no exchange fees thats what I will get when I make withdrawal It has been mentioned a number of times before get a prepaid euro card they are free better exchange rate and the first day if you are a group of four all club together buy lift passes with one card saving will equate to some beers
