Ski Tuning Course Outline

I will wait until Monday to begin course, however to provide more information on content, here are the course topice and timelines.

On Monday I will focus on the the people that gave their names BEFORE Monday since I can not answer all the questions from "late comers"!

All video support material, videoconferencing and voice via internet communications will be done only with the persons who "enroll" before Monday!

Presentations
1. Introduction and how we will communicate using multi-media means.

2.Tools needed ( levels of cost)

3.Reasons to tune skis

4.How to use each tool effectively

5.Step 1: Preparing ski for tuning

6. Step 2: Preparing base edge

7. Step 3 : Preparing side edge

8. Step 4 : Detuning edges

9. Step 5: Wax selection (types,costs, etc..)

10.Step 6 : Wax application

11. Step 7: Wax/base finish

12. Summative Evaluation

13. Diploma given

The above is the suggested course outline, however I will modify some sections if participants wish to go into more detail!

This is an entry-level ski waxing course, thus we will not deal with "advanced" racing tuning!

Each week a new topic will be given.During the week participants will "practice" procedure and comment on problems via PM messages!

Hope this give you an idea of how this "first internet" wax/tuning course will be given!

Yes there will be an evaluation of your tuning knowledge since I will be sending you an "official" ski tech diploma!

Hope you all enjoy this experience!
