A ski tech describes a person working in a ski shop, turning screws. Ski techs are specially trained in work relating to hard goods such as, skis, ski bindings, ski boots and other technical ski related products.
Ski techs are also skilled at ski tuning, ski boot fitting, ski binding adjustment and ski equipment repairs.
The ski tech at Pepi's Ski Shop sold me a new pair of ski boots and tuned my old skis for a really killer deal.

Side Country describes the ski or snowboarding zone just outside a ski area boundary.
Unlike Backcountry Skiing and Snowboarding where the riders hike in for access, Side Country is accessed from the lifts of a ski resort.
Several ski and snowboard manufacturers started building a product category called "Side Country" in 2008 which combine characteristics of lift-served skis and snowboards and backcountry or off-piste specific products.
I'm gonna ride the Side Country today because the ski resort's trails are packed with spring breakers.

Ski and snowboard tuning machines are most often referred to by the ski tech as a stone grinder.
Not everyone working in a ski or snowboard shop turning screws can operate a stone grinder.
In the wrong hands, a stone grinder can remove fingers, hands and, (if the ski tech has really long hair) the dude's entire head.
I knew this kid who was turning screws in a snowboard shop and destroyed a new snowboard when the customer handed him a green pass and he let go of the board.
The ski shop owner caught his ski tech pouring dirty bong water into the holding tank of his $85,000 stone grinder.
