Swix designed the Gummi Stone to remove nasty micro burrs that result after you sharpen your edges. Simply rub the Gummi Stone along the entire length of your ski or board's edge for a smooth finish. Or, just detune your tips and tails, which will reduce the chances of catching an edge, but will keep your side edges ultra-sharp for carving.

Must-have stone for your waxing and tuning kit. Great for removing burs and rust from my ski edges.

Use these to get the burs off of your edges before sharpening. They last forever and work great!

This is what I need to clean up edges after I have smoothed them out with a diamond stone. I use it as a final step after cleaning edges. If you just want the least amount of tools to fix some problems/maintenance then I would recommend a small diamond stone over this, as it can be more aggressive, but the gummy stone is a great last stage of edge clean up. I wouldn't want to use it to take off a bad burr from a ding on its own, but that's not why I got it.

I like the shape and hardness of these stones. They feel easy to control in your hands while your using them and for me they work great as a rust remover and an edge tuner for finishing the edges after riding or sharpening.

Works great, can't really go wrong. I will order a couple of different hardness next.

I ordered the red stone. Once I started to use it to finish edges, I realized how great it was. It brings the surface to a consistent bright finish, and makes me look like a pro tuner (at least to myself!). Pound for pound, the best tuning tool you can buy.

I got the red stone and have found it to be quite effective for both removing burrs and polishing. Great all around stone. Easily fits in my pocket for on the mountain tuning

Perfect addition to the softer gummy for a final pass / deburring and detuning.

I'm sorry that I have gone so long through my life without having one of these. Works wonders getting the rust off. I did notice, though, that I wore a groove in it after just one use. Something to think about. I got the red one.

A must-have for your tuning kit. Works wonders on my edges. Smooth's them out and takes the rust away just like that. Bye two, or three

Gummy Stone, bouncing here and there and everywhere. High adventure that is beyond compare. The gummy stone should not be rare. Buy two so you have a spare.

I used this gummy stone (blue) for the first time about a week ago and it works great for both removing rust and detuning. Definitely a handy tool to have in your tuning kit!

Can't do a great tune without a gummy. I use them for part of the polishing process and for detuning the tip and tail. It is part of the process. I have my fresh gummies and I have my old gummies. As they wear out I pass them onto doing tip and tail detuning where they get the big V's in them.

great for removing a little unwanted rust from your edges and for doing a little de-tuning. Everyone should own one of these if if they don't normally tune their own skis

Good for de-tune after a sharpen. I mostly use it for touch up work and keep it in my pocket to get rid of burs-n-stuff while I'm riding.

Grab a red (or two) for a quick rust eraser and slight sharpen. If you're worried about messing with your edges, or don't have an interest in doing any substantial de-tuning/tuning, the red is where it's at.
