Basic Hot Wax Kit

Different wax types are formulated for specific snow conditions and temperatures. For example, some waxes are designed for colder temperatures, while others work best in warmer conditions. Choosing the right wax type ensures optimal glide and performance on the slopes, helping you enjoy a smoother ride.

Each wax comes with specific temperature ratings, such as [red] 12 28°F, [blue] 16 22°F, and [yellow] 25 50°F. To select the right wax, check the current weather and snow conditions. Using the appropriate wax for the temperature will enhance your equipment's performance and improve your overall experience on the mountain.

A "low-temp" application refers to wax designed for colder snow conditions. This type of wax is ideal when temperatures are below freezing, as it helps maintain the skis' or snowboard's glide and performance in icy or hard-packed snow. Using the right application ensures you get the best out of your gear.

Yes, biodegradable waxes are effective and perform well in various conditions. They are made from environmentally friendly materials that break down naturally, reducing your impact on the environment. Choosing biodegradable options is a great way to enjoy your sport while being mindful of nature.

A Plexiscraper is a tool used to remove excess wax from the base of your skis or snowboard after application. The 3mm thickness of the scraper allows for effective removal without damaging the base. Properly scraping your equipment ensures a smooth surface, which is crucial for optimal performance on the slopes.

The frequency of waxing depends on how often you ride and the conditions you encounter. Generally, it's recommended to wax your skis or snowboard every 3-5 days of riding or whenever you notice a decrease in performance. The type of wax you use can also influence how often you need to wax; for instance, some high-performance waxes may last longer than others.
