XCSKIguru Tips

Application

• Apply with a waxing iron at approx. 160 °C → excellent bonding and a durable top-finish

• Alternatively use synthetic cork / roto-cork for quick and lightweight race preparation

• After cooling, brush with:

  • nylon (medium/hard) → clean and even surface

  • wool → maximum water removal and highly responsive glide

Combinations

• Works exceptionally well over Swix Marathon Black →
  Marathon Black’s graphite + molybdenum reduce dirt pickup and static friction, enhancing glide in wet snow.

• PF100 completes the surface → creates a highly water-repellent and low-surface-energy layer that performs especially well in wet snow and challenging spring sunshine conditions.

• Also suitable over PS, HS, or TS series waxes depending on conditions.

Usage Scenario

• The best choice for wet and moist conditions: spring snow, slush, water-rich new snow, transformed and slightly coarse wet snow

• Designed for use immediately before racing, when maximum sharpness, water evacuation and sensitive glide are required.
