duuuuuhhhhh!!!! everyone knows about p-tex. but i have found that the secret is to pee in the gashes and holes and then leave your skis outside all night, in the morning the pee is frozen, and it works like a natural god given super duper wax...

bubble gum, but make sure that you get the right color bubblicious so that it matches your bases, otherwise you'll look like an idiot!

go to any local shop. they should carry. it. its a stick of stuff, kinda like wax but more durable. you have to melt it into the goudge then scrape it so its level with hte skis. a 6 inch stick is ususally like $2

no, just no, the shop on the hill will probably ptex em for like 5 bucks, plus if they have a gun it will be a better job than you could ever do

ahhh... love working at a shop... i get all mine repaired for freeeeeeeeee.
but yes. p-tex. we stock it. not that thats much use to you, but its cheap, and its good.
if your not confident, get a pro or someone who knows what theyre doing to fix it though.

u can't lose glue because the p-tex will flex with the ski and the glue won't.
