Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Its designed for snowboard but I was wondering if it would be OK to use for skis?

All-Temp Snow Wax

Ski edges and bases aren't that much different from snowboard edges and bases. It'll probably be fine, assuming your ski edges are at the same angle.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Yep, it'd be just as good for skis but only if your side edges are already set at 88 degrees. But you'll eventually want a decent side edge file, a base file, PTEX, a metal scraper (as opposed to the plastic waxing one in that kit), a wax texturing brush, wax solvent and a Tesco value iron etc. I'd buy it just for the novelty banana shaped wax though.

I'll get it then.
I've got Atomic skis, which I think are 87? so the edge file wont be any use. but 7 quid for wax, stone and scraper still seems quite cheap!
