SKI 15 Posted December 14, 2002 Share Posted December 14, 2002 I like a good hand job myself. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted December 15, 2002 Share Posted December 15, 2002 I only notice the difference when the snow is really terrible. And I try to avoid going when it's like that. Link to post Share on other sites
jstepp 0 Posted December 15, 2002 Author Share Posted December 15, 2002 poor choice of wording on my part (hand job) but thanks for the info, i think ill save a little money this year and wax it myself since i try to avoid sluggish conditions as well Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted December 15, 2002 Share Posted December 15, 2002 But now that I have a few good dings in my base from reconnoitering drainage ditches at Goryu and climbing trees at 47, getting a professional plug and wax job might now be worth it... Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Hot wax is better it helps speed and snow from sticking to the base. can type is gone on one or 2 runs no good buy a cheap 1000 yen iron and wax and a scraper and away you go. Also helps prevent rust Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 I just use normal wax and rub it on. Link to post Share on other sites
