Wax on, Wax off is how Mr. Myagi taught Daniel how to do a circle block. The block is one of the cornerstones of Okinawa karate.
Yes, wax will lower the drag coefficient of the snowboard.
use the pad it comes with
No, it does not. I use a regular iron I bought at Value Village for $5 to wax my base, and it works fine. The only thing is that once you use it to wax your snowboard, it cannot be used on clothes again, or else it will ruin them. If you make sure to have the right temperature, you should be fine!
No it destroys the board.
To be stupid, one is cold and the other is warm, but to be smart the cold wax may be stiffer and harder to spread, while the warm wax will be easier to spread but more slippery. If you use wax a lot try just use sing it at room temperature. It should work! ;)
Yes, for waxing Snowboards/Skis you will need to use tuning wax which you can usually buy at a sports shop on the mountain...
It is ok to use wax on some wood furniture. A better idea is to follow the instructions that came with the furniture as to it's care. Most of the time wood furniture responds nicely to a store bought polish or oil.
Possibly, depending on how good the quality of your wax is.
Gasoline, or Paint Thinner
It helps you to go faster.
Yes. Ski wax isn't magic, it's just wax and you can use pretty much any wax, though it it may not work as well. I've used turtle wax on by snowboard many times. I'll generally rub some turtle wax on my board before I snowboard and it works well. I have a snowboard that hasn't been waxed in ten years and I waxed it with turtle wax and it worked great.Before I tutrle waxed it it was totally unridable, ice and snow immediately clung to the board but6 after the turtle was I was able to ride for the rest of the day without trouble. It doesn't work as well as specially formulated wax, but it helps to protect the wax on your board and extend the life of the wax job.
Totally. Just treat it like you would with hot wax made for snowboards. It actually works quite well, but it does wear off faster than specialized wax (my theory: no big deal- it's cheaper regardless, I'd rather spend my money on a lift ticket). All of the fandangled specialized wax is totally expensive and unnecessary not needed except for comps. To do this iron the wax and scrape it to a thin film. It can take quite a few treatments to saturate the base.
