Glide Waxing for Cross Country Skis:

Every new pair of skis needs a glide wax application whether they are waxable, waxless, skin or skate skis. This application protects the gliding zones of your ski bases and facilitates glide on the snow. 

It is also recommended that you glide wax your skis every 50 - 100 km or so. For many people, once a season works well. Bring your skis in as soon as the snow flies so they are fresh and ready for the winter. 

• Standard Liquid Glide Wax $20 - Basic glide wax treatment. 
  • liquid glide wax
  • ski corked & brushed
  • skin care/binder where applicable
• Standard Hot Wax $30 - A little more durable. 
  • block glide wax (ironed)
  • ski scraped & brushed
  • skin care/binder where applicable

If you want a more full treatment including glide zone cleaning and base wax applied under the regular wax (increases durability), add the Boost to one of the above Standard Waxes:

• Glide Wax Boost $15 - Deep cleaning, more durability, and higher quality wax.  
  • glide zone clean
  • liquid base wax
  • temperature specific high performance glide wax (liquid or ironed)

For those with high quality skis who wish the full treatment:

• Premium Glide Wax $65 - Choice of liquid or hot wax treatment.
  • glide zone clean
  • base wax
  • temperature specific race glide wax (liquid or ironed)
  • fleeced topper 
  • hand structure if requested
  • skin care/binder where applicable

NOTE: the following charges may be required:

• Regular Ski Cleaning $10 - add to the above glide wax charges if ski needs grip zone or glide zone cleaned.
• Intensive Care Ski Clean $20 - add to above glide wax charges if skis quite dirty (such as wax on sidewalls, grip wax tip to tail, dirty decks, etc).

Hot Tar $40 (on clean wood skis) - Wood skis need a different kind of base treatment that involves heating pine tar into the ski base using a blow torch. The skis must be clean before this procedure (see above charges). They will be ready to wax for the day when you pick your skis up.

Hot Box Wax $40 - This is like a sauna treatment for your skis! Skis are saturated with wax and heated in the hot box (like an oven) for 4-5 hours. The wax deeply penetrates the ski bases and conditions them as if you had hot waxed them 15 times or so. This treatment is recommended in addition to a Performance or Premium Hot Wax.
