How can you see if you must wax your snowboard?

Answer

you should hot wax your snowboard everyother time you go out riding if you dont your gunna ruin the pores of the base of your board and you will go really slow


Really you can get by without a wax for a long time, but at a certain point in your riding you can tell if your board just doesn't glide like it used to. If the daily temperature changes by 10 degrees or so, you might need to throw a fresh layer of wax on. If you've been scraping over a lot of rocks, rails, boxes, patios, etc... then you'll need to wax up, not just to keep a layer of wax on, but to fill in all those holes you makin, brah.
