Convex base

[Fleaman]

I was tuning my board this weekend and noticed that my base is convex, the edges are about 1mm lower than the center of the board. Is this excessive? I was wondering if a base grind would clean it up? The board seems to handle well and I have no complaints about it other than the edgehold on ice, the edges have been sliding over too many rocks this year. Any ideas on how I can level it myself? I dont want to spend too much on the board as I have a new Coiler AM coming next season.

Thanks

a couple companies make sandpaper specificly for base prep its hard to find but it does exist
lust do not even think of trying with out a true bar
you could make things worse
this I assume would be quite time consuming too

thanks for the info, I used the edge of my wax scraper to check it, I have true bars for skis but not boards.
