When you’re standing on the beach ready to paddle out you should be asking yourself two questions. One do you have your leash on the right foot. And two do you have wax on your board. Surf wax is pretty self explanatory but if you’re an idiot I will tell you what it is for. Surf wax is applied to the deck of your board where your feet go and is used to keep your feet from slipping off. It is also put on the rail where your hands go so that they don’t slip while duck diving.
There are thousands of brands of surf wax that come in all shapes, colors, and cents. My favorite brands are Sex wax and Sticky Bumps mostly because they smell really good and give me a lot of grip to do turns and tricks. To apply this wax you are going to have to complete three mind bending tasks.
Step 1: Take plastic of bar of wax
Step 2: Rub wax in a circular motion where you will be placing your feet until it forms bumps on your board.
Step 3: go surfing.
It’s really not that hard and should only take you about 2 minutes. If you get the smart idea to put wax on the bottom of the board, don’t do it. It will slow you down on the wave and most importantly make you look retarded. To make your wax stay sticky, you can comb it with a wax comb. This will save you a ton of money on wax and will make one bar last twice as long.
