Default what kind of wax.

So I just got my first set up and now am looking at waxes. I know for the current moment I need an all temp wax because the weather has been up and down in Iowa.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what company produces the best wax? What's the difference between the different companies?

Thanks for the help.

sorry boys u use child stuff

TOKO is the best
wax never makes u faster, it just makes sure the base does not dry out

u need a perfect tuned boarded with polished edges if u want speed

It doesn't matter what kind of wax you use. I've used them all, it depends on how you wax your board.

Of course you want to use one that is designed for your type of base, aka petex base. You really want to work on your technique for waxing, that is the key to making the wax job a good one.

Maybe once I get the ability I will post a "How to" thread about waxing.

Here in Canada I have had nothing but awesome results with Kuu. However, I imported some Bluebird (soy) from the US and was very impressed with it, even though it is weird to work with.
