Abstract

In embodiments, an apparatus for sharpening the edges of the ski/snowboard is provided. The apparatus may sharpen the edges of the skies without scratching the ski base. The apparatus may include a file support having holes for affixing a file. In addition, a radius base plate having a curvature is attached with the file support at right angle. In embodiments, the curvature of the plate from the tip to the tail may be symmetrical or asymmetrical and the angle between the file support and the radius base plate may vary between 90 and 96 degrees.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. provisional application Ser. No. 61 / 235,546 filed Aug. 20, 2009 which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention generally relates to ski / snowboards, and more specifically to sharpening the edges of the ski / snowboards.[0004]2. Background Information[0005]Typically, the ski / snowboard tuning technician sharpens a ski with a flat based file guide. A flat file guide tends to scratch the ski base and is generally intolerant of irregularities in the ski base. Also a flat file guide requires the technician to hold a particular wrist position when starting and finishing a filing movement along the length of a ski which increases fatigue and may reduce quality of the ski edge near the start and end of a sharpening path. A need is felt for a simple tool that facilitates sharpening the ski edges without at least ...
