    I'd love to see a video on wax selection, both for racers and freestyle/big mountain. Also, how often to wax. For big mountain, I'm always debating whether it's better to use universal wax in most cases, or if it's junk and I should always use temp specific.

      Been doing this for a decade - If you can keep a little shop set up, there’s no harm in waxing before each trip. Wax is so cheap I always prefer riding on a fresh base. You’ll see your board/skis get white towards the edges and it’ll start to feel dry. I’ve gotten 7 days in powder pretty easily but on groomers/ice usually 2-3 days. If you need P-Tex you’ll need to wax over it regardless.
      Universal is fine for most cases, but if it’ll be super hot/cold I’ll mix in some of the appropriate temp. As long as the wax is smooth and even you’ll be fine.

    Run that scraper tip to tail not hacking strokes because it leaves backward marks and will slow the ski

    You are unnecessarily overheating the ski.. check the official swix video..doing it like this will destroy the ski over time…😢

    For Jesus sake I'd hate to be your lungs breathing that non water soluble molting wax

      If you don't burn the wax with an excessively hot iron I think that almost none of it aerosolizes. I doubt it is a problem.
