    This forum needed an actual xc ski related post so here is a tidbit;

    Still using fishscales for all your skiing? Find out why people
    bother with waxable grip wax skis, the easy way.

    The answer to easy grip wax is; Start Grip tape.

    It is self adjusting to temperature through a huge range
    +5�...-20�C (41�...-4�F)(standard version)
    -1�...-20�C (30�...-4�F) (Sport Version)

    Both last hundreds of miles (in clean snow), are self adjusting to temperature (ski from warm sun snow into cold shade snow, slip for a
    couple seconds as your skis cool down- then grip is back!)
