Wax ski with Grip Tape suitable for beginner?
Hi everyone!
I've recently had my first lessons in nordic skiing (classic style) and found it great! Now I want to buy my own gear, as I only had rental skis for the course. My teacher told me to get no-wax skis (such were my rental skis, Fischer Power Crown), as waxing is a complex task and needs some experience. Also, I don't want to make a fuss about preparing the skis each time -- just get them out of the car and off you go ... But now, I'm wondering whether a wax ski together with the Start Grip Tape would also suit my needs. Would you recommend this combination to an absolute beginner? Or should I follow my teacher's advice and buy a no-wax ski? I'm living in Germany, so conditions may vary from about -15 to +5 degrees Celsius; this should be compatible with the Grip Tape. I am sportive, but I don't want to do nordic skiing as a hard training. Just do some sports to keep myself fit in the winter and enjoy the landscape and to be outdoors. As far as I know, the disadvantage of no-wax skis is that they are slower and not gliding as good as wax skis. But is there also any disadvantage of wax skis? What about getting a good kick, which I find to be the most difficult thing for a beginner? Is this easier with no-wax skis? Sorry if I had some wrong technical terms -- never learned skiing vocabulary at school ... ;-) Bye Amadeo |

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Hi Amadeo- no apologies necessary-- you asked good questions, and it sounds like you've done some looking into things on your own before posting. From the sounds of it, going with the grip-tape option might be a good one for you. Your conclusions about the pros and cons of no-wax vs. wax are pretty accurate: better kick without having to have good technique, but slower glide for the no-wax; faster (funner) skis, but you need to work on your technique (and waxing) to get good kick for the waxables. However, if you are patient and someone who responds positively to challenges, you will learn a lot more, develop better technique, and experience what "kick and glide" REALLY feels like if you go with the waxables. Having said that, read up on the various posts that have been put up this winter about wax pockets and kick zones (some have been really good), and go online to Zach Caldwell and/or Nat Brown's websites to educate yourself some more. Then find a good shop that will fit you with a pair of skis that have the right flex. This is a crucial component of classic skis, and just grabbing a pair off the rack vs. having them fitted is exactly similar to buying a suit off the rack versus having one tailor-made. The shop will consider your technique, how likely it is to improve (if you're "sportive", maybe that means that you will work harder at developing better technique), where you ski (hilly vs. flatter), etc. Having said all that, yes, the grip tape sounds like it is an easy way to get a good wax application, but it won't replace "waxing"- you still have to apply it, take it off when it's not the correct wax, figure out which is the right wax, etc. And finally, probably the most correct answer is: buy one pair now, and plan on buying a second pair (of the other kind) later! good luck!

Mail SpamGuard/a. --0-96347692-1105460505=:55561-- I completely concur about the importance of getting a ski that fits well. That's critical, and it's critical that you know where your wax pocket is for powder and klister conditions (varies somewhat from one to the other). Having said that, the tape works incredibly well for some. My wife used it every day in Tahoe a couple of weeks ago and, for the first time, I had to really hammer to keep up with her. So, first find a store that knows what it's doing. Good luck! |

It have a very wide temp range (-4F to +35F according to the instructions) so you do not need to mess with it to find the right wax for conditions (this is my reason for trying it this year). You will have to figure out where to put it on skis, and how long the grip area should be.(this I am still working on for my tests). The glide is very good, and quiet compared to waxless skis. The 2-3 hours I have used it this year has been on poor snow with a lot of sticks and rocks and dirt poking through the snow, but the wax strip has held up very well. gr |

I've put in about 50-60km on Grip Tape, and have found it to be great
about 60% of the time, when it's at least below 30. Above 30 I have had very bad icing problems, but that's where my RCR crown skis really shine, so I've managed. When it works well it's pretty darn good, but I'd say that's been only about 20-25% of the time I've been out. The glide on my SCS waxless skis with Grip Tape has been way, way better than on my RCR crowns (although some of that is just differences in the flex and length of the skis). Wear can be a problem if you don't put in on carefully and burnish it in well. I had to use a hairdryer on it after the initial application. Overall I would *not* recommend it for a beginner because it's just one more possible frustration. As a beginner the best thing is to make it easy to get out and ski as much as possible, and build technique and conditioning. You can't go wrong with a lots of the waxless skis on the market today. Just make sure you wax them well, including the patterned area. |

Chris, all I know about wood skis and pine tar never made it out of
Lapland Lake's shop four seasons ago. Your analogy to cameras is a good one, but truth is at least 95% of people using cameras don't have much clue about the parameters for setting up good shots. If tape does the job, then how much do you really need to know except how to use wax remover? My thoughts are meant to be speculative.
