New Wax Test

today the test time utilized Start MCW Blue. Initial reports are very favorable and suggest this as being a good wax line similar to the VR from Swix but perhaps a bit more solid and less racy underfoot. A few glazed areas did generate an occasional slip but all test members solidly kicked up the steepest of the test hills on the test course and felt glide was good. Watch for more on this Finnish wax line.
Kick: Binder, Swix Extra Blue 2, Rode Multigrade Violet, Thin cover of VR-45

Glide: Rode Blue
