title: The Ultimate Ski Maintenance Book: DIY Ski Waxing, Edging and Tuning (Ski Books)
author: Mr Peter Ballin
description: 5.0 out of 5 starsWax on, Wax off... Ski<br />ByMatt Tenchon 12 January 2016<br />Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase (Amazon.co.uk)<br />This is a simple, all you need guide to ski maintenance for the normal skier/ snowboarder without going off into the waxing nerdiness of the racer pack. I wish I had been able to buy this when I was learning my 'fartage et entretien', rather than wading through a million online guides that didn't always agree or were aimed at pros. Clear and easy to follow, you really can't go wrong with this.
