Dominator Psycho Old Snow 100g Paste

Dominator Psycho Old Snow 100g Paste

-14° and colder

For natural or artificial snow that is at least three days old.

Snow friction starts to become very high at snow temperatures below -15°C, and early polar explorers traveling by sled through the Arctic compared snow friction to that of sand. Using the correct wax in extremely cold conditions can provide a significant competitive advantage. Psycho extreme Cold waxes are designed to prevent the high abrasion and electrostatic charge associated with very low snow temperatures. Very cold waxes require higher iron temperatures and a good iron with a precise thermostat. They must be used with caution to avoid heat damage to the base. To eliminate the risk of base damage from excessive heat, Psycho waxes are also available in paste form. While the PSYCHO paste waxes are less durable than the hot wax versions, they are easier to apply and their application poses no risk to the base.

Psycho waxes can be used alone in their temperature range or only near the edge, at higher snow temperatures, to protect the base near the edge when the snow is very aggressive. To protect the base near the edge, a thin layer of Psycho is applied along the edge, then the other wax is dripped over the rest of the base and both waxes are ironed in together.
