The Men's World Cup Downhill is heating up as the season inches closer to its finale.

Mastering Ski Edge Tuning with TOKO Wax Room: A Guide to Gummy Stone Techniques

The Edge Grinding Rubber, or "gummy stone," is one of my most utilized and thought-about pieces of tuning equipment. A gummy stone can be used to remove rust. (But if you use it on your base edge, do so sparingly). Base edges are easily affected and shouldn’t be meddled with). A gummy can also be used to take the spiky-ness off of a particularly bad burr (but a file and diamond stones will do the actual fixing).

Linus Strasser’s Sensational Double Win: Schladming Night Slalom Sparks 2024 Season Excitement

Linus Strasser is on a roll. He won his first World Cup of the season in Kitzbühel on Sunday, and on Wednesday night, he did it again in Schladming. He increased his advantage to (-0.28) during the second run. There are no bigger races in slalom skiing than those two. No matter what the rest of the season brings, he will consider 2024 his most successful. There are six slaloms left in the season, but it is clear there is a battle brewing for the title.
