Board Waxing??

Hello, I have just got my new snowboard but it needs waxing, should i wait until i go to Pamps in Jan or give it a try myself? Never done it before so any tips would be great.

Hi hockey 14,
if its a new board it wont need waxing, if its not she will need doing and also its important to keep the edges good, i bought a kit for mine it was about £40, you will also need an iron to put the wax on.

I agree with Gill. Take your board to the Snowshack and see Gary and Ted. They are both instructors who are from Manchester. Top guys and they will advise you on what you need.

Cool
