How frequently do you need to tune? I usually only tune at the beginning of each season. Does tuning also prolong the longevity of the board? This article doesn’t seem to address that.

Recreationally, if you are on a narrow groomer type ski on icy runs, every few days is great and will help you enjoy and improve faster. Well fitted ski boots are more critical though.
