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.
