Should I tune to 88 or 90 degrees? Do you have to sharpen the bottom or just the sides?

Can you sharpen a magne board with a machine, or can you only hand sharpen. Also is it possible to put an 85 degree angle on the heel side edge, or would you even bother?

Hi Sirs, i'm a lucky owner of a lib trs magnatraction 157 season 2006-2007. I now need to sharp the edges and I am going to buy the Magntraction sharpener on-line as I dont know any Italian shop that sells it (unless you dont suggest me an italian shop to contact).
Can I choose the degree to tune, such as from 87 to 90???
if yes, how many degrees i can choose?
wich degree of tuning do you suggest?
can i use the magnatraction sharpener of "normal" snowboards?
Thanks a lot
Antonello, Italy

leave the base edge alone, just detune the sides along the whole edge with a medium file by hand, a couple of good clean swipes, gummy it up and you're gravy. in face you don't understand just how good it is until you hit an icy park. Pure control and smoothness + buttery. I can't wait to ride my new trs banana, i've been thinking about taking it to the skating rink. I'm sure it'll just rip, and I have heard across the board, including the kass man himself say that landing banana is the best part.
But yah enjoy that magnetraction shreds, its the best idea that you've ever picked up, good job, now go throw down!
Let it snow x3
