Product Info
Results have shown that Swix Cera Nova CH10 Yellow Hydrocarbon Bulk Wax - 180g is most ideal for fresh snow in warm conditions. Not the best for summer "icy slush". So when you have fresh snowfall in Late spring/ early summer without sharp ice crystals CH10 is perfect by itself.
CH10 is still the Worlds most frequently used wax for base prep/saturation and as travel wax for warm skis. Recommended iron temperature setting of 110 C.
NEW AND IMPROVED: Contrary to current thinking, the Wax pros at Swix and Berg's Ski Shop have found that summer slush requires a different wax prep for optimal glide. The Swix CH10 is still a great wax but in the hard/ icy crystals of summer corn snow this soft wax is easily scraped off the base of the ski or snowboard like sand paper scrapes wood.
An ideal wax combo for dirty summer crystal snow is a mix of cold/ flouro/ and graphite waxes put on in overlapping thin layers. This accommodates for the ice and fluctuation temperatures on the hill.
Wax layering sample:
Layer 1- Cold wax: creates hard surface that resists being scraped off by the sharp snow crystals.
Layer 2- Flouro wax: Fast/ hydrophobic layer to repel the excess water present as the icy crystals melt in the warmer temps.
Layer 3- Graphite wax: repels the dirt in the snow that is very present in spring and summer conditions.
This combo of wax lasts all day when applied properly, but don't take our word for it Try the combo and experiment with your own different wax and layering techniques. Find the best combo that works for you. Happy Waxing.
