so my friend told me that you can use wd40 as ski wax remover, ski wax, and supposedly it works great as wax for skiin on concrete. has anybody else heard this or tried it?


meh..

why don't they put a knife on a spork? doesn't that make sense to you?

wd40 works as a base cleaner/wax remover, but its bad for the ski pours. you should let the ski dry and then wax it immediately after you used wd40. in terms of wax, its only good for like 2 runs at most and its fast b/c it sucks the chemicals out of the snow...watch your bases turn black and get ruined.

It actually does work, on snow at least. So does diesel, pro racers used to do it (it would eat away your base materials, but they had plenty of skis) but its illegal because it gets into the snow and melts into streams and makes fish get caught in old pop can rings.

or jump up and yell 'LOOK!' then point in another direction, while you jump into a helicopter, and fly down to the finish line and win by like 4 minutes.
