If you're looking for a wax that gives your skis a good glide without robbing your bank account, grab the Swix CH Glide Wax. Cross country skiing through the winter wonderland can be a fairly horrid experience when you're sticking to the snow every second. Iron this wax onto your skis and enjoy a day of smooth sailing along the track or through the woods. This non-fluorocarbon CH Glide Wax can also be used as a race wax. *Please see sizing chart for wax temperature suggestions.

Swix CH Wax

Rating:*****

If $11 bucks seems like too much to pay for wax then I'd take a second look at what Swix has to offer. They are a great company and have a number of top of the line products.
Your board needs wax just like a car needs oil. No wax means your board drys out and the base will become damaged over time. Not to mention you won't be able to fly by your buddies anymore!
Get this stuff, the size chart above tells exactly what wax to use for what temperature, and the case the wax comes in even shows what temperature to set your iron. You can easily get 3 waxings out of one block, and 4 if you apply it efficiently.
Also, I'm a snowboarder, so just because the description talks about skiing, it's obviously made for both.
If you're not sure how to wax your board, check out youtube, they have plenty of how to clips. Heres one.

Swix wax is the best out there. Toko is a close second. CH wax isn't as good as LF. There is a noticeable difference. However, if you are on a budget, you can't go wrong with the CH, but if you see the LF (or HF) on sale, Grab It!
