Every time skiers attack the slopes, their edges are on the front line – under assault by abrasive chunks of manmade snow, ambushed by occasional rocks, and exposed to the most extreme pressures a ski can dish out when it is in the middle of a turn.

Diamond Machine Technology, Inc., has developed the Diamond Ski and Snowboard Edger, hand-held, diamond industrial tools that allow any skier or snowboarder to quickly repair burred or nicked edges before heading out onto the slopes, and even on the slopes.

DMT® diamond stones eliminate the edge burrs caused when ski and snowboard edges hit the rocks, and have an almost magical ability to smooth edges in seconds. Using a DMT® Diamond Whetstone^™ or a tuning guide makes manual ski and snowboard tuning an easy, do-it-yourself job, and saves you lots of money in tuning costs, also.

It is pure power in a tiny package. DMT® ski stones are available in 70mm and 4-inch lengths and are small enough to carry on the slopes. Short stones allow maximum diamond contact with the ski or snowboard edge, because they can follow the contours of the new, shaped skis.

Sold separately, the Mini Diamond Ski and Snowboard 70mm and the 4-inch stones are available in three diamond meshes: fine, coarse and extra-coarse.

For precision tuning of shaped skis, which requires at least a 1-degree edge angle or "bevel," DMT® offers three innovative tuning guides that take all the guesswork out of tuning. Each comes with a 70 mm stone. Tuning custom edge angles is as easy as dialing up the desired bevel on the DMT® Multi-Tuner. The Fixed 90º Tuner and Fixed Beveling Tuner hone fixed bevels on bottom and side edges.

Diamond Machining Technology, Inc. manufactures a full line of diamond sharpening tools for sporting, home, and workshop applications, including the innovative Diafold® family of sharpeners, the convenient Diamond Mini-Sharp® and the double-sided DuoSharp^™.
