What is the proper way to store my skis?

[Tim from the North Shore]

During the season, I always leaned them against a wall vertically in my unheated garage after wiping them off with a towel after each use. Then I thought this might warp them (they sometimes go weeks between uses).

Lately, I've thought of resting them flat on the cement floor in same garage. (They don't exactly lay flat; the brakes hold them up.)

During the offseason, my skis are in a zipped bag in the garage, hanging from two hooks in the most evenly distributed way possible.

Kindly advise what I could do to improve the life of my skis via proper storage...Thanks in advance.

I keep mine frozen in my walk in freezer.

Biggest concern is moisture. A cool dry place is fine. Against the wall is fine too (think about what you see In a ski shop: they're all leaned up against the wall).

My skis either hang in the ski rack in the shop, or thrown in the bed of my truck. I dont really care how they are stored, I just make sure I dry them off.
