Snowboard Tuning Part 3 - Clean up your Edges

[quikmista8]

this guy doedn't know fucking shit, what a FAG

[speckfisher425]

Case hardening is something that is done by a manufacturer by heating up a metal and putting it in the presence of carbon gas to harden the surface. What he is talking about is mechanical hardening which occurs when a metal is shaped at a lower temperature, like room temperature or lower, and this can happen by beating it on a rail. Same result though, he just used the wrong term.

[rlclark50]

@speckfisher425 I think they refer to it as work hardening or strain hardening in metallurgy since it involves the slipping of grain structures past each other.

[skatezooyork24]

can you scratch up your base by doing this too?? cause im a noob and like a nice unscratched base.

[aznbadboyz555]

won't doing this mess up your bevel degrees?

[hhoh12]

no because youre not doing enough passes hard enough to change the bevel, just remove the burrs

[coasttocoast15]

broken social scene! rad!

[HoBOpUrE]

omg thats a burton vapor those things are like $1200

[BillyBobTS]

the most overpriced pile of garbage.

[HoBOpUrE]

yea prolly ive never tried one but $1200 for a snowboard thats just dumb

[actionsports111]

Never ridden one, but I wouldn't want one, I wouldn't want to fuck up a board that expensive.

[monkey298]

@BillyBobTS what's an overprice pile of garbage??

[BillyBobTS]

@monkey298 wow this is old lol, digging back through the memory dump I'd say that was in reference to the burton vapor.

[xSpazyKlown0]

Wht's the difference between coarse diamond stones and fine diamond stones. When would you use each one of them?

[cutiesboy09]

coarse for taking out those nicks and burrs off ur edges and fine for polishing and sharp edges. Use the stones everytime after riding.

[JRFIGNEWTON]

do you just have the gummy stone in water?

[MEGADERBE]

Just nice viedos but he weares the same t-shirt which he weared before he snowboarded^^

[Jojojojof]

lol after watching this ive been taking sandstone and sharpening my edges for hours now lol

so much rust (1 season of forgettin to clean)

[Olaipai]

3 for me :P

[zachoskins12]

Does it matter if u have rust on certain parts of the metal edges on your snowboard??Msg me back(check out my channel)

[sprtnF22]

whats the diamond stone for??

[starshock01]

sharpening

[Warbirds8]

Doesnt that gring the bottom of your board when you scrape the base edge?

[drewtonium]

do you file the base edge after using the board for a while?

[moparjim590]

It's nice to see a video of someone who knows a lot about their job. Not too many people know about metallurgy and would destroy the edge because of their ignorance.

[zed13281]

yo ive studied mechanical engineering for 3 year and you wont come close to metallurgy till you study mechanical and chemical engineering at university

[speckfisher425]

@moparjim590, not to detract from your point, but he did show his ignorance of metalurgy. Case hardening is something that is done by a manufacturer by heating up a metal and putting it in the presence of carbon gas to harden the surface. What he is talking about is mechanical hardening which occurs when a metal is shaped at a lower temperature, like room temperature or lower, and this can happen by beating it on a rail. Same result though, he just used the wrong term.

2:08....thats what she said

[daftboi]

great vid - thanks for the tut!

but id like to know where you got that gummy stone. everyone ive found have been really narrow/thin - that one looks much better and easier to use.

[AvikOnToast]

haha workin with a burton vapor i didn't think anyone actually had those

[wongnumba]

crap i gotta get me a gummi stone...

[AvikOnToast]

yeah i gotta buy both tools, they don't cost as much as i thought they did though
