Even though we only started tuning skis in the fall of 2015, this award didn&#8217;t land on our doorstep overnight. Our ski techs work tirelessly to ensure that not only are our customers&#8217; skis tuned to the highest standard, but that they are also finished within 24 hours from when they are dropped off at our shop. We are the only shop in the area that offers 24 hour turnaround for ski tunes and other tech work, such as binding mounts.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6970\" src=\"http:\/\/www.powder7.com\/ski-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/5280-tott2017.gif\" alt=\"5280 TOTT Best Ski Tune 2017\" width=\"375\" height=\"375\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The concept of quick turn-arounds means nothing without a team that\u00a0executes everyday.\u00a0Maybe I&#8217;m biased, but you&#8217;ll be hard-pressed to find a tech team that&#8217;s more dedicated, professional, and knowledgeable than ours. Blake Milliken has headed up our tech department since its inception, and he&#8217;s joined by Chris Toffolo in the daily toil and management of the wide array of tasks in the tech realm. Blake and Chris work alongside our entire customer service team to make sure our customers&#8217; needs are met and their expectations are exceeded.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers to Blake and Chris, and the rest of our crew that work tirelessly year-round to make sure our tuning and tech operations run smoothly and the end products are of\u00a0the highest quality!<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.powder7.com\/graphics\/tech-team-web-bw.jpg\" alt=\"Powder7 ski tech team.\" width=\"600\" height=\"342\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chris, Blake, and Andy take a break from tunes and mounts to pose for a quick photo.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>5280 Top of the Town segment on Good Day Colorado:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/player.ooyala.com\/static\/v4\/stable\/4.14.8\/skin-plugin\/iframe.html?ec=9kOW9xYjE6Ig0weUGtdom9BTDXPageOG&amp;pbid=47658b6fe4a043a48f5296392ce1db7f&amp;pcode=dzb3E6lOVg3GbeqCXcWqm8NkQGcl\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s especially exciting about our award from 5280 Magazine is that it comes on the heels of two other major awards in the Denver area.
