Best Answer

When you store downhill skis over a long period you should put a storage wax on. This is a special wax designed to keep the bases from drying out and cracking. A good place to store your skis would be a place that is cool and has a medium humidity. Too dry will dry out your skis. Dark is also good as bright sunlight can damage the graphics and will make the temperature rise and fall which will also damage your skis.

To store downhill skis for long periods of time such as the summer the best way to keep them in good shape is to go to your local ski shop and ask them to put a storage wax on. This is a special wax put on thickly and not scraped off too much designed to keep the bases from drying out and cracking. A good place to store your skis (with the storage wax on, don't store skis without it) would be a place that is cool and has a medium humidity, too dry will dry out your skis. Dark is also good as bright sunlight can damage the graphics and will make the temperature rise and fall which will also damage your skis.

Do you wax your skis?

Yes, I do. It really makes your skis so much smoother and if you're a freestyle skier like I am, it helps to land a jump without all the pain when you land. If you wax your skis once every time you go skiing that is the best way to do it, but you can also just make your own waxing plan.

How long downhill skis must be?

This is another question best answered by a salesperson in one of your local ski shops. This is a question that isdefinitely not a question someone can answer on wikianswers, because skis that are 150cm may be way to long for one person and skis that are 175cm may be way to short for another person. The size of the skis you should buy depends on a lot of things, such as: height, weight, skier ability, and style, power or finesse. For me, skis that are 161 are about right. I am 160lbs, 5'6" (I'm A LOT heavier than I look) I ski aggressively, my style is more towards power, I'm type 3 skier and ski all mountain (I put in the correct info onto a ski calculator and got the length). For comparison I put the same height and weight into the calculator but said the style was more finesse, skier type 1, doesn't ski aggressively, and sticks to groomers and the length this time was 155cm, just goes to show that height and weight are not the only things that matter. This is a fairly good ski length calculator so I will give you the website address, http:/www.frostyrider.com/tips/size-guide-skis.htm (copy and paste into the address bar of your computer). This is a good site but nothing beats the advice of a skier who is trained in helping people find the correct size skis. My best advice would be to go to your local ski shop and ask them, they will be able to answer.
