you should hot wax your snowboard everyother time you go out riding if you dont your gunna ruin the pores of the base of your board and you will go really slow
Really you can get by without a wax for a long time, but at a certain point in your riding you can tell if your board just doesn't glide like it used to. If the daily temperature changes by 10 degrees or so, you might need to throw a fresh layer of wax on. If you've been scraping over a lot of rocks, rails, boxes, patios, etc... then you'll need to wax up, not just to keep a layer of wax on, but to fill in all those holes you makin, brah.
Sorry about the last person who had a terribly incorrect answer. When you snowboard, you will get scratches in the bottom over time, there is no avoiding it. When you do, you need to wax your snowboard to fill in those scratches so you have a smoother ride. It isn't to "slick up" your board, it is to fill in the scratches.
put your hand on the back of your board and run it down to bottom if it slides nicely it is waxed but if you catch some sticky spot you have to wax those spots
any divots or nicks on the bottom of your board is one sign. . otherwise it's really up to you.

Can you wax your skis with car wax?
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.
What to do when you chip your snowboard?
You need to wax it right away and then freeze the wax on it. Next you get hardwood glue and glue a chenk of waxed wood into the chipped area. After two weeks, the wax will harden completely. (That is if it is used everyday for two weeks.)
How do you make a snowboard more flexible?
To make a snowboard more flexible, you can adjust the bindings to a softer setting, apply heat to the board to soften the materials, or try using a board designed specifically for freestyle and park riding, as they tend to be more flexible. Additionally, keeping the board well-maintained and regularly waxed can help maintain its flexibility.
