Should I wax my new reno jibs?

[U-8]

same thing

 

[chazz.]

yes, lots.

 

[DR.SHRED]

yes. i did

 

[I_Am_Mod]

they're probably waxed so i wouldn't invest in letting a shop wax it, but if you have the tools, feel free! it's a bit like foreplay....

its almost pointless to wax brand new skis unless you have some graphite wax or something.

enjoy the factory wax while it lasts

 

[GNARBARSTAR]

wax your skis alot before you ride them. factory wax doesn't really get into the base as much as a few good hot (iron)waxes and scrapes before you even ski them.

yea, factory wax is usually just a roll on hot coat to keep them from drying out. with new skis, its important to wax them up really good to saturate the base with wax. with new skis, i usually detune them real good, and then throw on at LEAST 2 coats of softer wax, and then possibly something more suited to temperature.

factory tune is awesome for a day or two

put multiple layers on and you might want to just leave it on instead of scraping to give it more time before it hits p tex
