Swix TST8

Race days around freezing are the territory of the Swix TS8 Turbo Red 20g. It's a fluoro-free racing wax for dry snow near zero that goes on with roto wool rather than an iron. That means a hard, fast finish in minutes, even at the race hill.

Why we like it:

Racing wax that covers both sides of zero and goes on without an iron is about as convenient as race prep gets.

Features and Functions:

TS8 is optimized for dry snow from -4°C to +4°C. Swix developed the Top Speed Turbo line for roto wool application, so the waxing iron stays in the bag, and the formula sheds water and grime while staying very hard and long-wearing. TS8 can finish a wax job on its own or sit underneath a TS liquid topping. Each block weighs 20g.

Bottom Line:

This is the near-freezing race block for anyone prepping skis at the hill without an iron. Keep it in the kit with your roto wool.
