Prefered Surf Wax?

Postby Heeb » Sun May 29, 2011 9:16 am

What surf wax do you think is better? So far I have been advised to use either Far King or Sex wax. Is there much difference?

I think most surf waxes work fairly well. One important factor is having a good base coat of wax before you apply the top coat. This will help keep your wax from matting down (flattening out). You will also get good wax bumps with a good base coat. If you can't find a base wax, just use a warm water, or tropical surf wax for your base coat.

Still prefer Sex Wax but Sticky Bumps, Palmers & XM wax are all good. XM wax does come with a cool sticker.

all about sticky bumps. sticky bumps gives you the best traction and is the same price as all other waxes, coming in a fairly large bar and comes in all diffrent types and colors. they are the best i have noticed. enjoy.

I like Sex-Wax most. Sticky is ok but I prefer S-W.
