We have been getting a lot of requests and feedback on our SkiBee wax for skis and snowboards. Currently, our formulas have been tested on the various conditions we have here in the great state of New Hampshire. Tests have shown that the formulas have worked well compared to the traditional petroleum-based waxes and the soy based waxes that are currently on the market. Some tests have shown we have a faster wax in certain conditions.
Many people have asked for the formula and our team has been discussing if we should share this with the public. We are still discussing this amongst the team as we continue to fine tune the formulas. What we can tell people, is that the recipe uses beeswax and only natural ingredients that can be found in New Hampshire. The beauty is that any residual wax loss from the ski into the environment is returning from where it came from. Stay tuned for more information and maybe some test footage.

Back before petroleum based waxes were available skiers utilized natural ingredients to wax the bottom of their skis. We will not go into the specifics of glide and grip but we will let you know that we have been experimenting with our friends at Pioneers Board Shop in North Hampton on a beeswax based snowboard/ski wax that is effective and 100% natural and biodegradable. Our 5th formula seems to have made a big improvement on glide and I tested it in some perfect conditions at Sunday River at the end of February. Snow conditions and weather play a big role in the type of wax one can use but so far our test batches have performed well over the synthetic waxes that are found on the market.
