Ski Tuning
A proper tune restores speed, control, and confidence on every run. At Sun & Ski Sports, our complete tuning package includes edge sharpening, base grind/repair as needed, and a fresh wax finish. If you bring both ski boots, we can also function-test your bindings for added safety and peace of mind.
Trust us: Get your skis tuned ahead of your trip. You’ll feel the difference the moment your skis touch snow.
Ski Mounting
Bindings keep you safe and in control on the snow. We mount and adjust bindings to your boot sole length, weight, skill level, stance, and skiing style to support consistent release and peak performance. Switching boots? Upgrading skis? If anything changes in your setup, let our Outdoor Experts test, adjust, and remount as needed to ensure everything is dialed in before you head out on your first run.
Ski Waxing
The perfect ski day starts long before you reach the lift line. At our Houston ski shop, we tailor every wax to the season, from cold, winter powder days to soft spring slush. Need a quick checkup before your flight? Grab a belt wax for a smooth refresh. Planning a weeklong trip? Our custom hand waxes will keep your glide fast and consistent all vacation long.
If you’re a regular skier, routine waxes are crucial to keeping your skis smooth and protected for many seasons to come.
Please note: Service times may vary, and some tune-ups can be completed the same day. We recommend calling ahead to confirm availability if you’re on a tight schedule.
