"Fu Wax creates that “soft feet” feeling, where the board seems to follow your movements no matter which way you turn. Due to its non-horizontal slip, Fu Wax makes airs a breeze, and if anything, its tackiness only increases throughout the session. The favourite of pro surfers everywhere". Fu Wax Brazil.
Wax Guide
The ideal surf wax application(s) will provide moderate to high levels of stickiness, while providing stability underfoot.
- Softer waxes: Are stickier and easier to apply. Can be prone to move, smear or rub away at pressure points / surfer contact points on the surfboard.
- Harder waxes: Are less sticky, and somewhat more difficult to apply. More likely to stay in place and not smear or rub off at pressure points / surfer contact points on the surfboard.
Single Wax Formula Application V Basecoat and Topcoat Combinations;
- Increased stickiness requires a softer wax which in turn can reduce stability under foot with single wax formula applications.
- If single wax levels of stickiness and stability are adequate for conditions and needs, there is no reason to apply Basecoat / Topcoat combinations.
- Basecoat / Topcoat combinations generally increase the stickiness achieved with a softer single wax application without sacrificing stability.
The Principle of Basecoat and Topcoat Combinations;
- A harder Basecoat formula provides stability under foot with a long lasting surface texture that can hold the softer Topcoat wax in place, and prevent it from moving or rubbing away at strategic points on the deck of your surfboard.
- With a firm Basecoat, the Topcoat wax formula can be much softer and stickier than any wax you could use without a Basecoat.
Guidelines for Basecoat / Topcoat Combinations;
- A Basecoat must be sufficiently hard to remain stable at water temperature.
- Any Topcoat formula can be used that suits the water temperature and surfing needs, as long as it is softer than the Basecoat wax.
