Surf Wax and Wax Combs
Surf wax is one of those small things that makes a big difference. The right wax keeps your feet on the board, the wrong wax turns the deck into a skating rink, which is funny only when it happens to someone else.
Surfboard Wax, Softboard Wax, Basecoat Wax & Wax Combs
These are some popular surf wax options from Amazon, including Sticky Bumps, Mr Zog’s Sex Wax, Mrs Palmer’s, Bubble Gum, softboard wax, basecoat wax and a couple of non-bamboo wax remover tools. Always choose wax for your water temperature. Tropical wax in cold water is no fun, and cold-water wax in the tropics turns into chewing gum.
