Why do I have to use snowboard wax?

What can I use to wax my snowboard if I don't have wax?

  • Answer:

    Wax. Just kidding, but for serial, you can either buy specialized wax at a snowboard shop, I know Burton makes this nifty kind that you don't even have to heat up, which they call "rub-down wax". This is good if you're lazy and have alot of money. Another alternative if you're not lazy but still rich if to buy specialized snowboard wax. Theres like, a billion different kinds. If you're like me, and would prefer to spend the very little money that you do have on lift tickets, and you have a little bit of time on your hands, use Paraffin wax. It works just as well and its WAY cheaper. Its basically the stuff that they use to seal canned goods, in food, my dad uses it to wax the snow shovel so its easier to shovel snow (thus showing how well it would work on a snowboard), and to make our kitchen drawers work properly when they're being stupid. You get it at the grocery store in the area where you might find canning supplies. There's alot of websites out there that show you how to wax your board, but I attached one that I think it particularly nifty.

Wax is kind of the only thing you can WAX a snowboard with. However, a friend's friend apparently used a crayon. (Crayons are wax.) I don't know how that turned out.
