Swix

I am just getting started with skate skiing. After a lot of researching on-line, the Swix Ultimate Nordic Tuning Kit was what I needed to begin waxing. Easy set up with products that were advertised accurately. Sierra Trading Post had the best prices by far!

This was best package at great price that included both a pair of vises and an iron. The edge tuner is just OK but definitely gets the job done. Could see picking up a better edge tuner and possibly another brush to supplement. The vises are easy to use and seem well made. The iron is basic but works great. Has a decent size block of wax, should be enough to wax 6-8 times.

If you're looking to start tuning your own gear, I'd suggest peace-mealing from local shops instead of buying this kit. While the ski vices work great (don't know what these other dudes are talking about...I ride a pair of Gotama's which are 108 under foot and they work great), a lot of the other equipment in this kit needs to be upgraded if you plan on improving your tuning abilities. File and holder are useless, and the brush is pretty small for larger and wider skis. In hindsight I should have just went to my local shop and bought from them. Not to mention they can give you some great insight into the tricks of the trade

The kit sounds like it has it all, but in reality you are getting a 2 piece vice (not three) and basic iron, plastic scraper and on block of wax. The brush and edge-tool/file are pocket versions, and not really what you would use for tuning. Probably still a good deal, but you will still want to buy a full size file and brushes else where for home-tuning.

Easy to set up and use for a quick hot wax and edge tuning.

A great, compact kit; makes waxing your skis a snap.

good kit, it will keep you sking, but it could have more wax ( different temp wax).

You don't need a vise to open 110mm. All you need to do is to lay the ski flat, bases up and use the retaining piece included to attach securely for structure work, base edging and waxing. The other reviewers are clueless to how this vise works. Overall, it is a solid beginner kit. For the price that Sierra Trading Post is offering the kit for, it is a true value. A decent, not great vice, a good iron and the throw away tools included will get you started. Before you run away from this kit, listen to someone that has been tuning his own skis for 30 years. Get some better tools and you'll be good to go.

It was a good product for the price. The file kept shifting on the tuning part.

Love the product for the price. Would not pay full price for it so very Thankful for STP and their great prices.
