The 2006-07 season promises to be exciting for snowboarders in the
Central Maine area who travel to Kennebec Bike & Ski for their
Snowboarding needs. We have more than tripled our shop space
dedicated to Snowboards, Snowboard Boots, Snowboard Bindings, &
all Snowboard related Accessories.
We have also added several exciting new
Snowboard product lines. We are now selling Lib-Tech & Gnu
Snowboards, Bindings, and accessories.
The
most exciting new addition for us is our new Wintersteiger Micro
91 combined stone & belt grinding machine. The Micro 91 is
designed with a wide belt and stone to allow both ski and
snowboard tuning. Most snowboarders in the past have not taken
proper care of their equipment thus not gotten the maximum
performance or life expectancy out of their boards.
A properly tuned board will ride better in all
types of terrain and snow.
Stone grinding will flatten the base and restore a structure
pattern which give you the following benefits...
• Improved maneuverability
• Instant response to direction changes
• Better direction control
• Faster, smoother gliding
• Optimum edge grip for all slopes and snow conditionsEdge tuning is also
important. Your edge bevels will affect how your board will handle
in the turns or halfpipe transitions. Your edges also need to be
sharp in order to provide optimum hold, especially with the top
quality ice we often have the pleasure ride on here in Maine.
The final important step
is wax which in addition to the obvious benefit of better glide
also helps to protect and prolong the life of your base. |
