Liquid Wax: Optimal Gliding Performance for Skis and Snowboards
Maintaining your skis or snowboard is essential to enjoying optimal performance on the slopes. An effective method of caring for your equipment is to use liquid snowboard wax. In the description below, we will take a closer look at liquid wax, including what it is, how it works, its benefits, and how to apply it correctly to improve the gliding performance of your skis or snowboard.
What is Liquid Wax?
Liquid wax is a type of wax designed specifically for use on skis and snowboards to improve gliding performance. It is composed of high-quality waxes and additives optimized for different snow conditions and temperatures. Its liquid form makes it easy to apply and provides even coverage over the entire base of the skis or snowboard.
How Does Liquid Snowboard Wax Work?
Liquid snowboard wax works by forming a protective layer on the base of your skis or snowboard, reducing friction with the snow and improving gliding performance. It is applied to the clean and dry base of the skis or snowboard and then smeared with felt or cloth. After application, the wax must harden for a while before going on the slopes. Liquid Wax cannot be compared to Hot Wax which must be applied using a waxing iron. Liquid Wax is ideal to take with you on your ski or snowboard to wax your ski or snowboard halfway through. The basis of a well waxed ski or snowboard is always hot wax.
Benefits of using liquid wax:
- Improved Gliding Performance: Liquid snowboard wax provides a smooth and gliding surface that experiences less drag while snowboarding, increasing your speed and maneuverability on the slopes.
- Easy application: The liquid form of the wax makes it easy to apply to the base of skis and snowboards using a cork or cloth. This makes it a convenient option for beginners and experienced riders alike.
- Fast Dry Time: Liquid snowboard wax generally has a fast drying time, allowing you to get back on the slopes quickly after application.
- Versatility: Liquid snowboard wax can be used for both skis and snowboards and is suitable for all types of snow conditions, from dry powder to wet spring snow.
How to Apply Liquid Snowboard Wax.
- Preparation: Make sure the base of your skis or snowboard is clean and dry before you begin waxing. Remove any dirt, dust and old wax residue with wax remover and a nylon brush.
- Applying the Wax: Apply a thin layer of liquid snowboard wax to the base of your skis or snowboard using a cork, felt or cloth. Work in even strokes from the tail to the nose.
- Curing: Allow the wax to fully harden and cool before hitting the slopes. This allows the wax to adhere properly to the base and provide optimal performance.
- Finish: After the wax has cured, you can remove excess wax using a plastic scraper. Then brush the base with a nylon brush to create a smooth and shiny surface
