Thursday is going to be cold, but actually warming up through the afternoon. Please bring lots of warm clothes- layer up!
- Wax skate skis with CH 4 (green) with a little CH  3 (white powder) mixed in while CH 4 is wet. just a little cold powder (CH 3) sprinkled in- don't use too much!
- Scrape groove before wax dries. 
- Let skis dry well- at least 20 min
- Take the iron and go down the ski to warm the wax up - but not so much that it becomes liquid- just enough to make it scrape easier. 
- Scrape well, Brush well with white brush and then blue brush
Reminder that all Tour de Chittenden races are non-flouro
