Events, Activities & Services J.E. Henry Tuning Center and Sport Thoma at Loon Mountain

Loon Mountain and Sport Thoma offer the most advanced equipment tuning available. Loon's J.E. Henry Tuning Center, located adjacent to the train station in the East Base area, houses the Snowell® tuner, the same tuning machine used by World Cup racers. Sport Thoma's experienced staff will tune your equipment with the same attention to detail as that of world-class racers.

The Snowell® tuner offers a four-step process:

1. Stone Grinding

During the stone-grinding process, the structure required to enable optimum gliding and steering is worked into the base. Before every service, we compensate for the base material stripped from your skis or board by applying more in advance. This means your equipment can be serviced again and again.

2. Side Edge Tune

The side edges are carefully sharpened and polished. The state-of-the-art Snowell tuning center TFT 4U prepares your skis or board in one smooth procedure, where all the steps of the service are well-coordinated to follow on from each other.

3.Base Edge Tune

The base edges are tuned 89°. This means the edges hold only when you turn. And that means you're no longer in danger of unintentionally "catching" an edge. All units used for surface tuning, side-edge sharpening, tuning and waxing are equipped with a pressure regulator which means consistent tuning and polishing -- from the tip to the tail, no matter what the shape -- is guaranteed.

4.Wax & Polish

Here we use hard wax, which is applied to preserve the new structure. If you choose our race tune, we'll apply a hand finish to your individual specifications.
