M-wax costs $20 to ship for one puck?

Does this seem realistic? The puck is less than the size of a deck of cards, and they're charging me $20 for shipping. I live in Pennsyvania and it's shipping from Michigan. I don't remember it being that expensive before, even when I orderd 16 tiles and some wax.

What does your set up consist of? turf? M-snow?

A member on our team thats on the Canadian mogul team uses our deodorant stick a ton for snowflex when practicing in the  summer.

He says it works great. I use our wax on our summer set-up which is just some cheap turf, all i do is add a little water and its good to go.

So with that said, I have personally never ridden on M-snow in my life. However, I have a pretty good I idea that our wax will make you go faster especially as the wax begins to build up on the m-snow from you using it so much.

And if for some reason it doesn't, then you still have some bomb wax to use when you do some real skiing on the mountain.

Ok thanks I'll definitely buy this. I used to have msnow but now it's just all turf and construction fence, so I'm assuming this wax will be perfect

For shipping to Canada do you guys use USPS? Hate having to pay duty on rather small insignificant purchases like wax, tuning supplies etc.

Thanks

Yes, we ship all orders with USPS. We ship often to Quebec where a couple of our sponsored riders are, and they seem to receive packages with no extra hassle.

Also because of the size of the bulk brick and the weight. I recommend ordering 1 brick at a time so we can ship them to you in smaller packaging that will save you money on shipping.

Weight and package size pricing for USPS is the only thing that is kinda lame.

Hope that helps.
