Should you wax your surfboard every time you go surfing?

Answer 1

As soon as you get your new board, apply wax. Start with an undercoat of cold wax, and then apply a coat of cool wax. The temperature the wax is meant for is written on the packet. please note these guidelines are for surfers in the Uk, so if you live in a warm country, start with warm wax and then apply hot. Apply the wax in a motion similar to when you would rub out a pencil mark on paper, turning your wrist in circles. When the wax smoothes out, over time, use a wax comb to rough it up a bit. Every six months it is advised to sstrip of your wax (with the smooth edge of a wax comb of very carefully with a wall paper scraper or credit card) and apply two new coats.

Answer 2

You can or you can use this mixing thing which is a piece of plastic with points that stick out to mix up the wax and get some fresh wax. They are like 2 or 3 bucks at a surf store.
