Given the forecast, I wouldn't be going up this weekend... |
Yeah. Didn't realize they were closing it mid week. I don't ever recall them doing that in April before, but then again they're usually getting mid-April dumps.
Ramen/Sushi bar is closed for the season. Everything IMO points to them gearing down earlier than expected.
As far as discount goes, we just got the regular card discount, IIRC.

Entirely depends on snowpack and what you're riding on.
Resort skis my general rule of thumb for waxing is about every 5 days, 10 if conditions are better or I'm lazy (as opposed to every 15-20 for my backcountry gear). Haha although when I worked in a tech shop it was every time out.
Sharpening about the same, but I go by feel a bit more than times out. If you can run your fingernail across the edge and it scrapes the surface of your nail off, it's sharp enough, and you can probably get away with just de-burring the damaged sections (although I'm also saying this not knowing the extent of your damage, I'm assuming minimal).
Either way, I do a full tune either at the end of every season or the start. Always good to have a base grind to keep the edges and base flush to start the season (if you're tuning your own gear during the season especially).
I'll throw a shoutout to fleuryisgod at Sports Rent and suggest taking your gear there in October:
