Ski Posted November 24, 2005 Report Posted November 24, 2005 Actually, there's a guy in Washington state and another in PA that buy wholesale quantities and sell it online (including on eBay for 1/10 the price of Swix, Toko, etc.). I've used Swix Cera Racing Pro that runs about $150 for 30g and then tested it against Dr. D's Wicked Wax that I get at about $30 for 100g and cannot tell the difference. If I were a NorAm racer, then I'd probably spend the $150...but I tried the cheaper pure flouro on a fairly flat tuck course at Montage and then again during a 35 degree, drizzling ASRA race and was blown away by how close the quality was. I still use the reasonably priced Swix low flouro waxes, but will never again pay hundreds of dollars to cover the marketing expenses of Swix and Toko's speed overlays. You don't have to be a big name wax company to sell a good product. In case you want to check out Dr. D's website: http://www.racewax.com/ Always good to keep an eye on your competition... Quote
