It's 8F early this morning, with a high around 23. Have another cup of coffee before venturing out, and bundle up a bit.
Wax recommendations:
Glide - Toko Blue or Swix 5 should do the job. You could also try one of the fluorine-free liquid waxes that apply without aerosol, like Vauhti PURE Polar Green .
Grip -- Try a universal like Vauhti LDR (or Vauhti Orange Uni), Swix Universal, or Toko Red klister.
Or you could use fish scale bases or newer skin skis and skip the grip wax altogether.
Have fun out there!
