Ski Wax

Everything we stock is organised around the order you actually use it in: prepare the base, wax for training, then apply a race-day layer on top.

Base preparation comes first and matters most. A new or dried-out base needs several cycles of a soft prep wax before anything fast will hold. Skipping it is the usual reason an expensive race wax feels slow.

Training and glide wax is what you use nightly. Pick two or three blocks covering the temperatures you actually ski, in a size that makes daily waxing affordable rather than precious.

Race day is the thin top layer, matched to the snow that morning and applied over a base that is already prepared.

One rule to know before you buy: US Ski & Snowboard prohibits wax products containing fluorocarbons in all sanctioned competitions. Anything you race on needs to be fluoro-free, and it is worth checking any older tins still in the wax box.

We carry Swix, Toko, Holmenkol, Wend, RODE, RaceService-1 and our own SVST line. Browse race wax, training wax, liquid wax and pastes and powders, or start with a wax kit. You will also want brushes and waxing equipment to apply it properly.
