"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""This wax is my go-to when conditions hover around freezing. The red/black blend grips well in fine-grained and transformed snow, and the black additive helps prevent icing—especially in tricky, changing conditions. I apply it in thin layers over a firmer base wax and cork it in for smooth performance. Whether I'm training or racing, this wax gives me the kick I need."" When snow conditions sit right around freezing, we rely on the VP65 Pro Wax to keep our kick strong and our glide smooth. Swix designed this high-performance kick wax for fine-grained and transformed snow, providing excellent grip between 0°C and -4°C. The red/black formula includes a black additive to reduce icing, making it ideal for racers and dedicated skiers looking for consistency in unpredictable conditions. For best results, we apply thin layers over a harder base wax or klister, then smooth with a cork to lock in performance before hitting the trails."
