Waxing Frequency question
Got back from a border cross competition where the board that was used
was run three (3) times (second place, first place, second place thank you). It had been waxed "thin to win" using a brass brush to remove the excess wax. Before the next competition, should I 1) Just buff the board 2) Strip and re-wax 3) Re-wax Thanks guys, Chris |

I think it partly depends upon the snow conditions where you raced as well as how well your base typically holds wax. If in doubt maybe hit it with a quick shot of an orange cleaner and then a quick hot wax. Probably also want to wait as long as possible to see what temp the snow will be for the next race. Good luck! |

I'g have to go along with those who say wax for the conditions that you're most likley to encounter at your next event, waiting until the night before when yo have a good idea what the weather will be like. At the recent Mt Bachelor event, I saw competitors adding wax (presumably a warmer one than they used the night bfore) night before the comp, as the snow was rather wet.
