Hertel Board Wax... - Page 6 - Snowboarding Forum

Both Waxes are fast as hell.

Like everyone said for the last 10 years, its fast and stays long as hell.

used it in 3 days in Mammoth this last weekend in 40-50f and lasted through the slush and killed it through the flats.

rocket fuel.

When I ordered some Super Hot Sauce I realized the next day that I had given the wrong postal code. I got in touch with them and they said they had already mailed the wax, but will send another one and if they both arrive not to worry about it.

Still polishing off a bar of swix wax so I haven't used it yet, but if it performs half as well as their customer service then they've earned my loyalty

so you guys are saying that this wax Hertel Super HotSauce Ski Wax is amazing? If so then ill get some.

24WERD · 01-09-2013, 08:37 PM

yea its amazing, but i would get the higher performance one the FC739. Last longer , better in colder condition under 22f, and faster.

I hate waxing or I hate scrapping the wax off so I rather do it 1 time instead of 3 times. Plus I have to do it to my gf board too.

But the hot sauce is still very good wax.

hertel is pretty fast for all temp and I like how easy it is to scrape off...but that also means it doesn't last as long on your base as purl or other brands. With hertel, on icier conditions, I get a max of 3 days before I need to re-wax.

on a lesser note, I find it strange they aerate the wax (to make it look bigger?). It's this huge brick, but weighs the same as other brands that are half it's size

I would get the FC739 but i can afford it

Also i dont really mind having to wax often

I've been waiting over two years for someone to actually review this wax. I've read the site a million times, but never actually heard an actual users experience. Good to hear it is fast, the fact that it doesn't last long doesn't mean much to me, I usually wax before I go out each time anyways ... and I don't know why I didn't see this review when I first joined, guess I didn't think about searching for it here ... either way, thanks for the review

This stuff seems to be the crowd favorite on here. Hope it is good cuz the shipping to Canada is ridiculous. Arriving early next week hopefully.

Let me know how you like it up there. I just bought some Demon cold and all-weather, but when I'm out I'll order some Hertel and review it here.

Sounds like a plan.
