Holmenkol Wax

Holmenkol is a German wax line with a long World Cup history, organised by colour and temperature in the same way most race lines are.

The Mix waxes — Alpha, Beta, Ultra — are the everyday range, each covering a temperature band, and are what most people will use for training and general glide. The base waxes go underneath, in cycles, on new or dried-out skis.

Picking by colour is straightforward once you know your snow: colder and drier means harder wax, warmer and wetter means softer. If you are between two, the colder choice is usually safer, since too-soft wax picks up dirt.
