Frequently asked questions

How often should I wax my skis?

Recreational skiers should wax every 3-5 days of skiing, or whenever the base looks dry and white at the edges. Racers wax for every session and tune to exact conditions. A fresh wax noticeably improves glide and protects the base from drying out and oxidising.
