The Swix VR-waxes are fluorinated and made for top racing, but have also proved interesting for Recreational and Sport skiers because of their excellent properties, particularly around 0°C (32°F).

These hard waxes are characterized by a high degree of flexibility, good kick, and a minimum of glide friction. Each VR wax has two specified temperature ranges, one for falling and new-fallen snow, characterized by sharp snow crystals with relatively strong penetration capacity, and one range for older snow when the crystals are rounded off and have less penetration power.

The Swix VR-65 kick wax is for moist snow. Excellent wax on fresh slightly wet to moist snow.

    ·  New fallen snow 0ºC to +3ºC (32ºF to 38ºF)
    ·  Transformed fine-grained snow +1ºC to -1ºC (34ºF to 30ºF)
