Surfing Waves

So, how often do you get a new wax job, and when do you consider it time to get a new wax job, personally, I wax my board atleast once a month, unless it is a real good wax job that never smears, but I like to put new wax on anyway sot that my board look better. (the wax gets durty.)

er thats funy i just brought my board to work to day to steam clean all the old wax off, av had the board 1 1/2 years and this is the first time av cleaned it never had a problem sticking to it but my wax was very very lumpy, i just used a wax comb on it to refresh it

every six month or something. depends. unless i know the surf is gonna be amazing i sometimes do it for that sort of thing (most just getting excited and needing something to do to burn time while i wait for the surf)

Just steamed cleaned me BIC looks brand new now

When it gets to heavy

Looks to me you guys use wax that is not really stickey, because mine smears after a while, how can you surf with 6 month old wax? (whell, I've seen people surf with no wax at all, but I must say my turns are much better with fresh wax, maby it is a confidence thing.)

wax is fine for a while anyway, aslong as you comb it or add a tad more every time...i've don't notice too much difference when i change the wax apart from a nice clean board and maybe a little weight difference

i put a little bit on everytime i go in, if I don't have any i just use a comb, i clean the wax off when it gets too thick and starts turning grayish

Never. Just chuck a bit more on every now and then, and once in a while, in a moment of boredom, I pick some of the stray pubic hair out of it.

lol Hang11, i couldnt not re-wax my board. but don't mind a bit of dirt (no pubes in there though, too cold not to wear a wettie)

Same here.. hah That, or it gets real dirty and starts feeling like sand paper.

I would say about once a year. If it gets slick in the water then I rough it up using my finger nails like a comb.

once per 8 month.

Not my favorite task, but if the wax builds up to say, 1/4 to 1/2 inch, it's time. Depends on the color as well. If it gets really dirty I change it out. Generally no more than 2 or 3 times a year.

Personally I love waxing my board, it kinda builds a bond between me and my board, knowing I put so much effort in it, making the perfect wax job.

Love the smell of a new coat of wax, the wax i use smells of coconut. Reminds me of sunnyer climates.

Hahahahaha so i guess you sleep with your board too?

As for the question once every blue moon and wax combs are great for re-juvinating old wax.

Not as often as I should....maybe every 4 mos....it get ugly, and there are always a spot or two that get baldy....a strip and refresh makes it all good again.


How do you get pubes on your board....I almost never touch balls to board

Wax is for gays!!!

Real men use vaseline on their boards

How do you get pubes in a monopoly set?

It's got nothing to do with touching balls to stuff, they just get there.

One of the great mysteries of life I think......
