Boulder Mtn Tour Wax Rec - BNS
Posted on February 3rd, 2012
| February 4, 2012 - |
We tested at Prairie this morning.
See the wax post from BNS.
If you do not have Matrix Green then the next best is probably LF4.
SkiGo Graphite as a base layer critical. You can purchase this at Sturtevants in Hailey or Ketchum. If you do not SkiGo Graphite do two layers of the green wax to harden the base.
SkiGo C105 Fluoro ran very well. Personally (Eric and Joe), Swix Powders are a liability when it is this cold and may SLOW your skis down.
Finite Structure: Fine Grind Base with L02.
Wear your peterheaters! It was 2F at 9:30!

Boulder Mountain Tour - BNS wax rec (so far)
Posted on February 2nd, 2012
| February 4, 2012 - |
For people that are geeking out over the wax see the below report. If you have to wax Thursday night I(Joe Jensen) would throw on some Matrix Green or LF4. A graphite hardener is critical as your underlayer. We have had great luck all season with the SkiGo Graphite. If you do not have an underlayer you need to heat your green layer in a few times.
There will be one more update to the BNS rec tomorrow around noon.
We will be testing at Prairie Creek tomorrow around 9:30 to 11am.
Good luck to everyone and see you at Grumpy’s.
