Snowboard Tuning

maybe its a good idea to take my board into a shop and have them totally tune and wax it at least once before the season then i can try it on my own later on. Ive never done it before and i realyl dont want to screw a up my new board haha -
Snowboard Tuning

alright thanks man. I guess ill leave the edges and just double wax before my first trip out. -
I recently bought my first snowboard for the upcoming snow season but im unsure of myself when it comes to tuning it. Can anybody give me some tips on what i should do first? I havent done anything to the edges or base yet. I am really wondering what degree i should tune my edges too and how to detune my nose and tail. Thanks, PK
