1) Stone grits

3) Strokes

They have a small handheld sharpener for this. It holds the angle and is easy to use. Using a hone is MUCH more tricky, and more than you need for the edge on a snowboard. Also, when you are not using it (like now in the summer) put a little wax on the edges (candle wax works fine, and smells nice ). The edge does NOT have to be razor or even knife sharp....

At least this is my experience (I've been snowboarding for ~13 years now)
