Sled, Snow Tube, Snow Board & Ski Wax Reviews
Wax #1: Below we have some Kwik Wax. It 6 1/2"x3"x1". It is perfect for hand rubbing the running surfaces of snow tubes and sleds. No waxing iron needed, just rub on in a warm room and you are ready for the snow. Universal temperature rating of 12°-32°. Gives life & speed back to your snowtube bottom. It can be purchased at www.SnowTubes.com. It may come in various colors (i.e. blue, lavender, etc.).
Wax #2: Below we have some Can Wax in various colors. They are 5"x2 1/2"x 1 1/2". Being compact, they are keeping them with you in your large coat pocket to apply as you need it while sledding & tubing, no warming iron needed and all colors work well with sleds and tubes. They are also perfect used with a warming iron for snowboards and skis. Green is for temps below 17 degrees F, blue 17-32 degrees F, red above 32 degrees F and yellow (gold) is universal for all temps. They can be purchased by CLICKING HERE. I keep one of these babys in my pockets at all times while out on the hill or slopes!
Wax #3: Below we have some White Lightning Alpine Base Wax. It is an 80 gram can. It is perfect for hand rubbing the supplied applicator on the running surfaces of snow tubes, sleds and snowboards. Wipe it on with the provided applicator pad in the can, let it dry, and towel buff it off. This really speeds up a snow tube, especially ones with a glossy black bottom.
NOTE: A 2012 search for this pictured wax showed it out of stock on the web, however, good news, a comparable can with applicator pad can be found right here.
Wax #4: Below we have some lambskin wax. PERFECT WAX FOR HARD SLED SURFACES AND RUNNER SLEDS! If you want speed for your sled, then every sledder needs a wax bar in their pocket. And I must say, this little wax bar is not only cool to look at, it is cute (so kids would say)! Your friends will be in awe when they see you waxing your hard bottomed or runner snow sled with a snowflake - click here. Not just any snowflake, but one with graphite! It easily fits in your pocket. Take it with you on every trip. Best of all, YOU CAN'T BEAT THE PRICE. Oh, and don't forget, if you have a metal runner sled that has rusted, sand the rust off first with some fine sandpaper until it is shiny, then rub the snowflake on the shiny runners.
