Sidecut Base Bevel Guides

Sidecut Base Bevel Guides make it easy to put a precise 0.5°, 0.7°, 1.0°, or 1.5° base-edge bevel on your skis or snowboard, without the guesswork that comes with lower-quality guides.

Features

• Precise, consistent bevel: Designed so you actually feel the guide working, unlike bevel tools that barely seem to cut anything.
• Four degree options: Choose 0.5° for aggressive, responsive turn initiation, 0.7° for a slightly softer feel (popular with younger skiers and expert all-mountain riders), or 1.0°/1.5° for easier steering on SG/DH, freeride, and park skis.
• Mix-and-match technique: Many tuners run a steeper bevel on the first 10 to 20cm of the ski for easier turn initiation and a shallower bevel through the rest of the edge.
• Fits your stones: Sidecut Diamond Stones, Ceramic Stones, and Hard Stones are all sized to fit these guides.

Durability & Good to Know

Start at 0.5° and work up if it feels too aggressive — you can always add more bevel angle later, but you can't go back to a lower bevel without grinding the base flat again. New skis and boards need this prep even straight from the factory.

Ideal for: Race, all-mountain, freeride, and powder skis and snowboards.
