Back Alley Tech Shop currently utilizes FLUORO FREE Swix PS6 Blue Glide Wax ❄ (-6°C / -12°C). This a very versatile wax that offers great performance on natural and artificial snow. The Fluoro Free characteristic makes it safer and more environmentally friendly than older fluro style hydrocarbon waxes. 🌍
We also offer the warmer weather Swix PS7 Purple Glide Wax 🌤 (-2°C / -8°C) for warmer weather and Swix PS8 🌞 (-4°C / +4°C) for late season cruising!
Of course we also perform wax jobs for all other skis types and snowboards. We've even done a few sleds as well!

Reminder to all those heading out for spring skiing to get the proper temperature wax or ensure you are running universal wax. You don't want to get stuck in the snow. Back Alley Tech Shop offers 4 different wax choices with our Hot Hand Wax package.
Our typical application is the Wintersteiger (Vola) Universal Clear wax. This was has a wide temperature range and is effective in all sorts of different conditions.
The Cold Blue wax excels in colder conditions for when you are riding on those cooler days.
On the flip side if spring skiing is your thing and you love those warm late March / April / May sundog days the Warm Yellow wax will keep you cruising through the soft and sometimes slushy snow pack.
For those of you who ride very late into the season on poor snow conditions, ride specifically on artifical snow pack and are looking for added base protection, the Black Molydbenum wax might be worth trying. Check out this link for more info on Black Molydbenum waxes -----> https://gearwest.com/blog/wax-week-day-5-black-waxes/
Back Alley Tech Shop performs Hot Hand Waxes for $15 and has a full service ski shop for all your maintenance needs. Please call / text or DM us here for more information or a free estimate!
Minor Ski/Snowboard Tune - Base Clean, Base & Side Edge Sharpening/Bevelling, Hot Hand Wax = $40
Major Ski/Snowboard Tune - Base Grind, Base & Side Edge Sharpening/Bevelling, Hot Hand Wax = $50
