No, this ain"t for shaving beards or 5 o"clock shadows...it"s a tool for scraping any ski or snowboard base after they"ve been stoneground or hand-structured.
The sharp flexible blades help remove unwanted p-tex microhairs for faster base glide.
To use, tilt the handle in the direction of travel with the blade following behind...like using a paintbrush.
We recommend about 10 light passes per ski, with blade replacement after shaving a dozen pair of skis.
