I melt a candle, mix the wax with glass and sand and drip the dangerous concotion all over my board. Of course I have abs of steel, so the glass doesn't hurt me.... in fact, the glass is usually afraid of my abs of steel.

Otherwise I use Mr Zoggs, Mrs Palmers, Sticky Bumps or whatever wax I use.... I don't really have a favourite brand.

The one that sticks to my board :wink:

But generally sex wax - love the smell and works pretty good

I use Famous wax; it smells SOOOOOO good (makes me wanna eat it) and it's super sticky. It's the best wax i've used.

Whatever I can blag for free - it all seems pretty similar to me as long as you get the right stuff for the water temperature.
