Wouldn't beeswax be way to soft and plyable? I wouldn't last one run.

You can eat the honey while you wax your board

Idk but iirc, beeswax was used for grippage for xc skis recipies. It seems like beeswax would be too soft for slippage. Apparently 80-90 percent of board/ski wax is paraffin and the other 10-20 percent are additives, i.e., hardeners, surfactants, dye, perfume, teflon, detergent, molybdemum, graphite, gallium and ect. Been thinking/researching about doing my own recipe since got 9 boards and a pair of skis to keep going and running out of a big block of ski wax that was found at a thrift store for $2 a few years back.
