I want to get my own stuff to practice waxing a board (yes I have an old board I am going to practice on first!)

So I can get an iron from Kmart, is there any Australian Online stores I can get wax and scrapers from? I’m not too keen on the stores in Canberra as I have had terrible service at both and don’t really feel like driving to Jindy!

^^^ Thanks!

Because I am a complete noob to waxing my own board, what wax should I be buying?!

all temp wax is your best bet

ive gone thru about many different types/brands
toko, one ball, dakine, swix, burton, generic all temp


the only wax which i havent liked using….is the burton fluro all temp
it just didnt harden properly which meant it scraped off weird
only lasted for 1 day in aussie/warm conditions

Sweet as thanks humdingaling!!! I’m pretty keen to get stuck into having a go, will definitely save me from relying on the stores here.
