Before you even begin to apply your wax prepare your ski or snowboard base with the Swix Base Prep Wax.
- BP77 wax is used for all conditions and gives the skis a nice looking finish
- BP88 wax is an all-around base wax used for normal winter conditions. Specifically used for new skis and as a travel wax
- BP99 wax is recommended as the first wax on all new skis to get the ski bases accustomed to hot irons. Also recommended for skis or boards in the “Hot Box” and temperatures should never be higher than 130-degrees Fahrenheit.
Bottom Line: Wax on, wax off, but first wax correctly with Swix Base Prep Cold Wax.

Good wax

Pretty straight forward, red base prep to get your bases ready for mid range temps, yellow for warmer, and purple for colder temps throughout the year, then just add some LF or HF on top on the days you need it. Good hard wax to make sure anything you lay over it will penetrate the base well and last you more than just a few runs.
Change me.
