I agree 100%, and I also agree that it is amazingly inert, until sucked through a cigarette or something.
Regardless of the science, you will not do well selling it to XC skiers, who are a pretty knee-jerk orgo group.
I'd love to buy some. Should I inquire discretely on your website?
Hey newfydog! It's been a minute.
I'm a little concerned of any fall out by listing LF, but here is the
Briko-Maplus LP2 link. It is all at basically 'giveaway pricing'. The blue is a favorite and lasts a long time. Adding purple mid season is a better universal. And red for when into the low to mid twenties. Most never use orange, but it loves corn & transforming snow and seems to help on dirty snows. Then there's 'butter for your corn', yellow, on that 1/2" of corn on crust skates or spring fun. (Don't forget about proper structuring and durable base prepping.)
Most skiers do not realize that using better waxes not only improves glide, but smooths out turning and does even make skiing powder better.
I see a lot of posts on sprays, Universal Fluoros (softer), etc because people want it easy. Easy on = easy off and will put down way more material than hot wax solids.....not to mention what's in that spray? Talk about toxic shit. That's why I stopped dealing with liquids.
@newfydog, check out the x Soft base prep wax for hot boxing. People also blow off base prep waxes. I just mounted a pair of new skis and did my 'poor mans hot boxing' with the X Soft, followed by race base medium, then LP2. First run on new cold snow and the skis moved very well, only to get better with more waxings. (After 23 miles and 21,000 vertical the bases still look waxed.) Think like 'seasoning a good skillet'.
