Holmenkol's GW-25 Additiv High-Fluor compact 2 x 35g pack is the ultimate finish to waxing skis or a snowboard with a racing level wax such as the Holmenkol RacingMix range of waxes.
This pack is ideal to take to the mountain to use on those high humidity / end of season days as it comes in a compact storage box with 2 x 35g sticks of wax, for quick and easy application with a waxing iron.
GW-25 comprises a very soft hydrocarbon wax, infused with the highest levels of fluorocarbon (Teflon), adding even more glide performance to Fluorocarbon based waxes.
Although labelled as a racing ski wax additive, this wax is ideal for skiers and snowboarders wanting maximum performance in damp to wet snow conditions or when the humidity is high.
The fluorocarbon content resists water/snow sticking to the base, reducing friction further. Simply use your intended wax first, and then build a layer of this additive on top.
We also find that actually blending the additive into your intended wax works well and increases longevity. To do this put an elastic band around the block of wax and this additive and melt simultaneously blending both onto the bases of your skis or your snowboard.
Use sparingly to minimise scraping (and save money!) and then use a horsehair brush for best results to add structure and open up the base wax below.
Do not just use this wax additive on its own ‚¬€œ it is very soft so it will not last long, it requires a base wax to work with.
