NOS ski prep
One of the kids on our team is the owner of a pair
of new, old stock skis. The model year is, I think, four years behind the current one. Got a screamin' deal on them. These things have been sitting in a shop for a couple of years. I'm unfamiliar with how skis are packaged at the factory, do I need to worry about oxidation having taken place over that amount of time? Should I scrape them before letting the kid wax them for the upcoming season? Bob Schwartz --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!

NOS ski prep
I would say absolutely. Treat them as one would new skis, clean and
prep. Grind will be factory, but that's a lot of time sitting around, oxidizing a bit and collecting whatever else was floating around the shop.
