Default waxes - temperature range

Then what's your question? The Rex tape comes in two versions, down to
-20C (universal) and -25C (cold) -
http://store.finnsisu.com/kickrex.html. I prefer the Start tape, but I
found neither is very good above 2 or 3C. If you want to strip it and
kick wax, that's a different matter. Some waxes tend to be true to
their labels (Swix) and some vary considerably (Rode).

As I said I am a great fan of Rex Klister Tape, the cold version goes up
to -5C. One application can intended last for days. I will be going into the
mountains west of Bjoirli in Norway. I expect the temperature to vary
between -15c and 0c.

Where part of the country are you skiing in and what brand(s) of wax are
you using?

Dear All,
I wonder if there any views out there about going out with the
temperature
ranges of waxes. Say you put on something that is recommended for use up
to - 5C will it work reasonably well if the temp goes up to -3C or -2C. I
suspect that there are a lot of variables.
