I think he meant he tried it in 3 conditions: *cold/dry, *38, and *25.

OOPs. I'm looking forward to trying it at 25-38 sort of conditions. So far
at 15 F and below, it's not worth using, I don't think. Because it doesn't
work super for kick or (especially) glide and also because it's so easy to
kick wax (for training anyway) when it's cold. For me, for training, there
is actually quite a bit of leeway for acceptable kick and glide within
normal hard waxes... meaning, I don't get obsessed with the nuances of
temperature ranges when it's cold - "just use what's on there, it's probably
OK for training" sort of deal, if I'm in a hurry, or, more likely, lazy.
