true; rub on wax (exspecially hard, high floride wax) is designed for optimal performance for a very short time, which is the problem with not truly waxing your bases for the wax that is to be absorbed does not penatrate or hold to your bases. i used to ski race and purchased alot of rub on speed wax ( hella expensive hella fast good for 2 runs ) but the closeest thing ur goin get to a wax without waxing is a rub on wax that is "chap sticky" (if that makes any sense) like a gel lilke substance that is hella cheap and has an alpacator cloth that comes with the wax, slap on a couple genorus portions in the mornin in da evening and another at the end of the day before u put ur skis away. u might not have a lasting wax but u'll be slip n slidin like ky jelly. not time consuming not hard and more importantly cheap. this is a lil over the top i know but if u ride till u die u'll apperciate ur planks and take 2 seconds out of day to keep ur babys (skis) from getting abducted and fucked in the ass.
