Ski & Snowboard Services
Our tuning team here at the Norse House isn't just one of the most experienced in the area
but has the advantage of having worked together as a team for many years. We are able to offer the most superb tuning services; from overnight ski tuning to performance race grinding and finishing. We have invested in state of the art Montana ski tuning equipment and are very proud of the specialty race services that we are able to offer with these tools. Stop in and have a look at our tuning room, our staff would be glad to show you the equipment and the services that we offer. For those early morning skiers we offer accessible cold-storage for after hours pick up or drop-off of your equipment
Delivery to Stratton Mountain Club is available upon request.
Standard Overnight Services
The "Fluff & Buff"
For those skis where the base is flat and the base edge does not need to be re-beveled, this is a quick way to get your skis right back to that "just tuned" grip and glide
The Full tune
Our standard full tune is anything but "standard" - we bring your ski bases back to a completely flat plane and then add condition appropriate pattern with our state of the art Montana Crystal-S stone grinding machine. We apply edge bevel with our Montana HTT 2000 ceramic edge beveler and polisher. Wax is applied just before we hand buff your skis to a premium shine for amazing glide
The Snowboard Tune
We offer the finest snowboard tuning services in the area. Whether you are looking to get your base repaired, a quick edge and wax, or a full grind and tune, we offer all of the essential snowboard services
Repair
Damage to skis can happen unexpectedly even when the conditions are fair. With our Montana p-tex equipment, we can handle just about any base damage that the mountain can dish out. Whether it is base damage, edge damage, or even sidewall damage; we can assess the issue and make any repairs necessary - there's not anything you can do to your skis that we have not seen before
Binding Installation, Adjustment, and Testing
The back-shop staff here at the Norse House are certified to work on any ski binding currently indemnified by the ski industry. We offer quick, friendly binding services at any time. Our testing machine, the Montana Jetbond, is a brand-new, state of the art binding release testing machine. When it comes to bindings, your safety is our number one concern
Specialty Race Services
We offer all of our race services on a first-come, first-served basis. We try our very hardest to accommodate your athlete's schedule requirements. During busy race weekends, we greatly appreciate dropping your skis off as early as you possibly can for any final race preparation. If you call ahead, we can let you know our current wait time for final prep. Call (802) 297-1755 and ask to speak with the tuning department
Ski Grinding Services
We offer the very best in race ski grinding anywhere. Bring in your skis or give us a call to discuss your specific needs. We prefer to get your race skis with bindings and plates removed to get the absolute best pattern in the base, but we can remove these for you if necessary. We have created some the fastest base patterns for any conditions you can compete in
Hand Tuning and Finishing
We can take your skis from new or used all the way to race-ready with our expert hand tuning and finishing services. If you are pressed for time, or would simply like the expert touch of our tuning staff, we can have your skis in the best possible shape for race day, guaranteed
Waxing Services
In addition to our hand-waxing services, in the spring of 2010 we added the Montana Wax Future machine to our arsenal. This is the latest race proven waxing technology with the highest requirements for a far better gliding and protection properties. We can accomplish in under 30 minutes what used to be only achievable by 8-10 hours in a "hot box". Based on an optimized wax application you will get a higher wax penetration and absorption which results in long lasting sliding capacity of the ski bases especially with hard waxes
Bike Services
