The Best Skate Wax is NOT Skate Wax!

[@J2Metal]

My daughter seems to be making the move away from hockey to more skateboarding. Compared to hockey? Skateboarding is cheap! Haha

[@cangilll]

thats awesome, i wish her the best skating and grinding! Its awesome seeing a father actually research what their kid likes. Keep rolling!!!

[@J2Metal]

@@cangilll I actually decided to learn with her. I haven’t skated since I was 12 but I’m out there with her. She’s already telling me what I’m doing wrong and giving me tips! Haha

[@adamsnoop89]

Wait till she ripps the shoes and breaks some decks 😎

[@BlueserStream]

gets to the skatepark early to wax the crap out of everything, so everyone that shows up later can slip out and and die lmao

[@vgrepairs]

Better than getting stuck and chucked

[@jasonb993]

I like his style

[@PatchesOHoulihan-hi2tb]

Better for the obstacles to be slick than sticky. If they're slick just go faster but if they're sticky they're unpredictable.

[@luthertlatten3432]

Never knew you had a youtube its really cool that youre a teacher and skater. Keep up the awesome work dude catch ya at the park soon

[@sleepwalker29]

Try ski wax for snow skies. It goes on smooth in cold temps when wax normally freezes. Ski wax cost more than skate wax. Snowboard ski wax. But I live in Colorado and it's normal here to see a skater use his winter ski wax in the summer. Local stores here sell ski supplies. Colorado has more ski and snowboard shops than skate board shops, that sell the ski wax local. Also old candle wax gets soft after its been melted. So if you reheat the wax several times it makes it softer.

[@jm505]

Ski wax is terrible during a hot summer. Too low of a melting temperature.

[@michaelrodriguez6210]

I just made some wax last night using tea lights and a little but of beeswax, a crayon for coloring, a sliver of butter, and a few drops of dish soap. Works great

[@zackmarkham4240]

I don't skateboard, I aggressive inline, but I have a fellow aggro inline friend who buys those huge 5-wick candles in the little bucket from Walmart. He says it's as good as Gulf Wax and cheaper by weight. He just heats the metal bucket to free the big chunk of wax from the bucket, then dumps it out, let's it cool, then breaks it up and takes a small chunk with him whenever he skates. He's had a bucket last him over a year several times. I also recommend, if you lose a screw of bolt, just taking one that you didn't lose to Home Depot, Ace Hardware, Lowes, or some other hardware place and getting an employee to help you find a screw or bolt that has the same length, width, and thread pitch and buy like 50 of them. Aggro inliners CONSTANTLY lose the bolts that hold our frames to our boots, or even cuff bolts that keep the cuffs on our skates. It's way cheaper to find a 5 cent bolt at Home Depot than it is to buy a $20 replacement pair from whatever store you can find that has replacements. I also recommend trying to see if you can get bearings that fit your wheels and axels/trucks at a hard ware store. I 100% guarantee they'll be cheaper and most likely just as good. Unless you buy your bearings from a small company, like aggro inlining has a handful of skate companies that make their own bearings, then keep buying from them. Put money back into the community and help a business that is almost certainly owned and ran by skaters.

[@carlosquiroz2740]

Shoutout to a friend that fell in the video keeps me motivated to skate

[@smokeycheez]

I legitimately have the same box sitting on my table. I make candles but I prefer soy wax

[@da1theyluvLp]

i love to wax something alot when im skating it bc i just hate sticking on like a curb or ledge and flying forward

[@Spvceman333]

Captain obvious

[@FirstPersonSkater]

I usually don't use a lot of wax, BUT I haven't bought skate wax in years. I usually do the same thing as you and buy some bulk candle wax which lasts forever and is super cheap.

[@buffalobill4875]

Yep used to buy this when we were kids because we always loose it

[@Phillip_Schultz]

Saw you chewing on a bar of gulf wax and had to click. These youngins gotta learn the old ways! It'll save everyone some cash, and spread the love around. Back in the day, like a decade ago, you'd see Pig Wheels wax bars, shaped in a pigs head, selling for $11.99 at my local skate shop. I had no idea why it was scented skate wax, nobody skating would give a shit. But even the shop owner told us to go buy gulf wax, and reserved the overpriced "skate wax" for rich people who didn't care. 😂

[@KendallBertaux1]

Haha the shop owner knows where it's at 😂

[@Phillip_Schultz]

@@KendallBertaux1 True defenders of the culture. Much respect to all shop owners out there.

[@markvickery5894]

⁠@@Phillip_Schultznot all shop owners, our local shop owner would probably try to say gulf wax doesn’t work and you should buy the most expensive skate wax, he’s not even really a skater and just constantly trying to push sales on you

[@SimplyMEHHH]

Took me 30 minutes to find gulf wax in Walmart. It’s was next to the jams, jelly’s, etc. for sealing jars apparently 😂

[@andrewstendahl36]

Some one waxed the coping in a quarterpipe, which was how Bam Margera got injured pretty bad recently

[@loner165]

Can u find it in the UK?

[@KendallBertaux1]

I’m not sure but I think it’s on Amazon if you can’t find it!

[@midotvadventure504]

How about the Girl skateboards Wax bar?? 🤔 I tried it today b it not really that slippery..

[@dipadyck]

This wax is *okay*. It’s a bit of a stretch to call it the absolute best skate wax, but it certainly is the best wax for your money. It’s worth it, but not as godly as he says it is.

[@PANTEATER-tc9jf]

what’s better?

[@dipadyck]

@@PANTEATER-tc9jf actual skate wax, since it’s mixed with a few other waxes. the pure paraffin is really flaky

[@OrcinusLaryngologist]

“Skateboarding is a very expensive hobby.” Hardly. 😂

[@brucebruno842]

Jesus Candle (without the picture on it) is AMAZING! It's cheap and contains oil in it, so ya know, weeeee! You have to keep it in a zip lock, and you have to break the glass off at first, but it's worth it.

[@Yahkobah]

Them dollar tree candles. Lol

[@brannonpaulsen7608]

I've have used that wax, and it is so buttery! It's awesome but I've found it super annoying since it melts in the bag then gets super dirty and it kinda becomes a pain to deal with.

[@brucebruno842]

@@brannonpaulsen7608 Yup! In my teens I travel with it just skating everywhere, and yeah it would melt. I'd have a zip lock bag of soft wax and liquid. If I have some on me I keep it in a zip lock wrapped in towel in my bag, and I have to keep my bag out of the sun.

[@attheendoftheday8969]

Great park, use to take little man there to skate but it's been about a year now. Great video!

[@K_spawn]

Caution that gulf wax melts 😭😭😭 😂😂😂😂 it messed up my dashboard and a new set of bearings

[@danh.2270]

Unfortunately we don't have gulf wax in Germany...would cost me 20 USD for a triple pack if I order it on Amazon

[@skimbrosza]

does surf wax work??

[@whothat4684]

I would say MAYBE a base coat but it’s still kind of soft.

[@1fiddysquiddy386]

Lol this park is so fun I went there a while ago

[@kevin-album3856]

One of the fun things for skateboarding is finding cheap solution to solve problem…🎉

[@LazyDave.]

I been using gulf wax for years. IMO it is just as good if not better than the designer wax. It’s the only wax you will ever need…and yes I love wax! Better to slide out than to stick.

[@are_atn210]

just use a big as candle

[@Dreekuz]

that ender thooo. but yeah man i like a lot a wax too. people always yellin at me lolol

Hey, i need help, i bought A mini candles wax, and it doesen't work, when i try some slides, it stops my board, its not slipery, what should i do?

[@KendallBertaux1]

I've never used mini candles as wax. But I would try using a lot more wax. If the obstacle is metal it may need to break in.

[@Sam_Peterson]

I have that wax ,I just have nothing to put it on.

[@lrip872]

There’s no need to wax a handrail tho if sum1 went for bigspin fs board or kf bs lip and they didn’t know there getting into a death trap

[@KendallBertaux1]

I disagree. That handrail gets really sticky. And if someone is going for those more advanced tricks they would definitely try some easy tricks first to test out the rail before they tried something difficult.

[@zac8294]

Somehow they put this in bakery area which really weird for me

Wax is the cheat code to skating!

what’s the wax called again? Imo quit battering around the point people are “just going to yell at you”

[@brysonpucci1844]

Yessir good video!💯🤙

[@FirelordRob76]

my issue with pure gulf wax is that it's too hard and flaky. you need to mix in some silicone oil or softer wax with it to get the perfect blend. you waxed like 100 total feet of obstacle but probably deposited only grams of wax. to really wax an obstacle you need to wear down the wax block as it rubs so it is deposited on the surface and subsequently ground in. my favorite type of wax is the ikea pillar candle.

[@poodudeelite]

60% paraffin wax (golf wax) + 40% bees wax, same as store bought wax

[@FirelordRob76]

@@poodudeelite I’ve always found that bee wax is sticky and gummy but I’ve never mixed it with paraffin.

[@profo4544]

Gulf wax used to be like a no no, idk how this blew up into something everyones praising. I knew a dude who sold wax on ebay and etsy who worked for dwindle or deluxe and knew somewhat how they made there wax, and other ways, he would take paraffin, beeswax, and sometype of oil, onetime i heard him say he used i think a bit of bearing grease or something, i was like what?? But just paraffin breaks up to easy and melts weird, and forget about candles ull have the spot smelling like some bullshit.

[@chrhadden]

i thought when you brought wax to a part it stayed there.thats what we do

[@adamsnoop89]

I got where you coming from but that cheap wax melts away fast on a hot ledge or any other obstacle

[@KendallBertaux1]

Yeah that’s a good point. During the summer it’s not the best.

[@ShinRaphael]

Great video. I liked and subbed
