A snowboard still works without wax but it works WAAAAAY better with a fresh coat on the base. In addition waxing your board goes beyond just speed, it can make your board easier to ride in general. Matt shows you the basics of an easy hot wax job to make sure your board is riding well no matter how fast you are riding.

@PeterGlennSports 5 месяцев назад

Just like scraping your board. Even though it’s a crappy job and it can take a while, you just need to breathe and take your time. And when you’re done you’ll feel soooo relieved!

@sweetj16real 5 месяцев назад

Some people strongly recommend to loosen/remove bindings to make the job easier and avoid dimples from the screws in the base while hot waxing.

@PeterGlennSports 5 месяцев назад

Thats mainly for scraping the board. Any dimples in the base from over tightening the screws are 9 times out of 10 still going to be there slightly when you take the bindings off and you will still have to scrape into them with the corner of your scraper. So technically yes it will be a little easier to scrape but I personally don't think its worth the extra trouble. Up to you though.

@sweetj16real 5 месяцев назад

@@PeterGlennSports Thanks for the info. Maybe do a tuning vid next. A lot of people including myself unclear on edge tuning. Considering some people only do the side edge and not the base edge.

It seems to be faster to heat up the bar and then rub it than just to drip it. It also seems to spread it much more even. After that of course use the iron. Is that a good method?

@PeterGlennSports 5 месяцев назад

Depending on the heat it could be, but the time you save is minimal so up to you 👍

@orlandoarellano7390 3 месяца назад

Im kind of afraid to hot wax my go to board but i might gove it a whirl on my old beginner board 😂

@PeterGlennSports 3 месяца назад

Not a bad idea to start quite honestly. You'll find if you follow all the tips in this video that it really isn't too hard. Good Luck!

@reagancowley5061 5 месяцев назад

Can you damage your base by scraping with too much pressure on the straight edge of the scraper?

@PeterGlennSports 5 месяцев назад

I suppose you could but you would have to be putting an unusual amount of pressure on the base. It doesn’t take much to scrape the wax

@MrArjay123 4 месяца назад

I don’t have the brush , is it ok ? My final step would be the scraper since I don’t have the brush and I’m going riding tomorrow.

@PeterGlennSports 4 месяца назад

Yeah, you’ll be good. The buffing is a good thing to do but not a must. Having the board completely scraped it more important 👍

@hazmatite 5 месяцев назад

how do you feel about infrared?

@PeterGlennSports 5 месяцев назад

HAHA, so random. I just saw that like 2 hours ago, I'm super skeptical about how effective it really is. We have a video going live on the 31st about "easy wax methods" that are still not as good as a hot wax, but good to use when theres a time constraint. I basically do the exact same thing in that video with a $50 wax iron instead of a $250 IR machine. 😆🤷‍♂

@hamedizzy5137 5 месяцев назад

Isn’t it just better to take the bindings off completely?

@PeterGlennSports 5 месяцев назад

It doesn’t matter. Only reason to do it is if you don’t have a tall enough workspace for your bindings when you flip it upside down
