Snowboard Waxing: Melting Wax Onto the Board

Video Transcript

"In this section I'm going to show you how to iron the wax over the snowboard. What you are going to want to do when you start waxing is you are going to want to take your iron and hold it above the snowboard and touch it with your bar of wax and your wax will begin to drip off. And you are just going to want to make a steady stream of dots or lines and zig zag across the board. Make sure you get quite a bit of wax on there, then if your iron starts to smoke turn it down a little. And then what you are going to do is you are going to take the iron and melt all this wax down into the base. After you drip your wax over your snowboard you are going to want to take your iron and just press pretty hard down and iron all of that dripped wax down evenly over your entire base leaving it on as the spots dry. After you iron on some of the new wax you will see some of the dirty wax that you couldn't get off initially come up to the top and then you will get that all off later once you scrape off all the excess."
