If you haven't been sliding around quite as fast as you did since that virgin run on your new board it may be time to give it some love. Waxing your whip is an important part of keeping your board in good condition. If you're seeing the base of the board looking a little dull in color, almost "white" looking, then it may be time. Hot iron waxing is the way to go. Paste and rub on waxes are a great short term fix but don't really get into the base like it should. Turn easier and slide faster. Get to the next box, rail or jump with ease instead of having to start half way up the trail to have enough speed. If you don't do it at home we can usually give your board a hot wax while you wait for just $10 in the shop.
