Yup I hear ya Mike....the Moose straightens our edges right out at the end of ski day! Nice? ;D

For you waxing enthusiast...it's not the coat you put on at the mountain....it's the sub zero wax we nut cases apply when the skis are new, followed by the 5 layers of everyday wax, each scrapped and brushed in maticulouly. This keeps those white streaks from appearing after a few hours on the mountain. Skiing at home at our local mountain, I get them back to my shop for a hot wax and brush in every couple weeks of skiing....keeps their little bottoms happy!

I find also that if I apply a paste wax at the end of each day, it seems to help preserve the hot wax I've applied......it may just be a mental thing...but it's been my routine.

So...if you want your wax to last...get 5 or 6 coats brushed in before ski day...otherwise, just keep the paste wax handy? or try some Zardox silicone...ooooh... .very slick and slippery!

Enjoy the slide and glide!? ?::)
