A
conventional/traditional clamping vise typical clamps the ski or ski binding and is clamping to a bench or tuning stand.
For both skis (including fat) and snowboards something like a Board Gripper,
Tools4Boards
Cinch or Tuning Vise work well and can all be clamped to and moved along a bench or stand edge. The T4B vises were designed to integrate with the T4B Terminator Tuning stand and are connected wtih a knob and bolt for easy rotation and slides to quickly change positions.
The ski(s) or snowboard are secured using a lasso clamp:
The groove with an extruded aluminum
T-track in a bench or stand plays off this concept.

Yes, as does the Board Gripper and Tuning Vise. The Cinch has friction slot and clamp:
Here's our page on the Cinch. And Lou Dawson's
review at Wildsnow for additional insights.

The Cinch's pad can be rotated and canted to different angles and has the side clamp shown above.
The Tuning Vise is a simplified version with fixed pads and a center slot for edge work. It was originally for snowboards and comes without the lasso clamp, unless you add it as an upgrade.
HTH
