Here is something I've just started doing with Toko Base Green.  I did this twice last year with huge success - both for kick and glide.  I decide on the kick wax of the day for kick, let's say blue to make it easy.  Then I'll put on a coat of the base green and heat it with a heat gun and then cork it in real good.  Then I add another coat of the base green for the needed thickness to make it thru the race - thicker - and cork it well. Then I add another thin layer of the Base Green and cover it with the wax of the day (Blue).  I cork them in together. I add another light coat of Base Green and cover it with a coat of Blue and cork them in together again.  I like to recork the skis outside when they are colder to get them even smoother.

 

Man, I had great kick and a ton of wax left at the end of the Birkie and it was very aggressive snow. I will do more of this as I think manmade snow or transformed snow reacts very positively to this combination. Great kick and great wear!

See you this winter,

Marty

 

(Note from Ian Harvey: I think this works especially well in snow that is especially abrasive or partially transformed or for very long races)

The new poly-hydrocarbon system meets the highest requirements and enables precise fine-tuning! With 8 Grip Waxes, every ambitious skier can prepare his or her skis perfectly in all snow conditions. A very stable molecular structure encased in a gliding material is built up using novel raw materials. This increases resistance to abrasion as well as optimal adhesion and gliding characteristics
