SWIX VP Gripwax – New Fluoro Free line!
Fluoro-free kick wax from Swix
There’s no reason to choose fluoro under your skis anymore. VP is the name of our new racing kick-wax for competition and training.
The VP line is available in the same system as other kick waxes from Swix, covering all temperatures from minus 20 degrees to plus two degrees.
The VP-line is primarily designed for racers and ambitious non-racing individuals, but can also be used by recreational skiers who want the optimal skiing experience.
The new waxes will replace the former VR-line that contained fluoro. Swix developers have worked hard to find new additives designed to impart maximum lubricity, which improves the stick-slip properties of the wax and gives an excellent feeling.
The VP line is 100% fluoro-free, non-toxic, and degradable.
VP30 - Light Blue
Light blue kick wax designed for dry and cold to extremely cold conditions.
For new and new-fallen fine-grained snow from -8°C to -16°C (18°F to 3°F).
Old/partly transformed snow from -12°C to -20°C (10°F to -4°F).
VP40 - Blue
Blue kick wax designed for dry and cold winter conditions. A safe choice for normal midwinter inland conditions.
For new and new-fallen fine-grained snow from -4°C to -10°C (25°F to 14°F).
Old/partly transformed snow from -5°C to -14°C (23°F to 7°F).
VP45 - Purple-blue
Purple-blue kick wax designed for normal winter conditions well below the freezing point. An obvious “next step” if VP40 does not provide a safe kick.
For new and new-fallen fine-grained snow from -1°C to -5°C (30°F to 23°F).
Old/partly transformed snow from -3°C to -8°C (27°F to 18°F).
VP50 - Purple
Purple kick wax designed for conditions a few degrees below the freezing point. Provides a perfect kick until you experience moderate shiny tracks.
For new and new-fallen fine-grained snow from 0°C to -3°C (32°F to 27°F).
Old/partly transformed snow from -1°C to -6°C (30°F to 21°F).
VP55 - Dark Purple
Dark purple kick wax designed for moist, and new or new-fallen snow around zero. Can also be used on older snow just below the freezing point without sacrificing glide.
For new and new-fallen fine-grained snow from 1°C to -2°C (34°F to 28°F).
Old/partly transformed snow from 0°C to -5°C (32°F to 23°F).
VP60 - Purple-red
Purple-red kick wax works very well in moist new snow and shiny tracks. Will also work on older, slightly transformed snow some degrees below the freezing point. If tricky conditions around zero VP65 is recommended.
For new and new-fallen fine-grained snow from 2°C to -1°C (36°F to 30°F). Old/partly transformed snow from -1°C to -4°C (34°F to 25°F).
VP65 - Red-black
Red/black kick wax with extraordinary properties when tricky conditions around the freezing point. Also brilliant on the cold side when high humidity and older/transformed snow. The black additive speaks for versatility and great anti-icing properties. VP65 works best on top of a couple of layers of a slightly harder wax. It also works great as a cover on top of klisters.
For new and new-fallen fine-grained snow from 0°C to 2°C (32°F to 36°F).
Old/partly transformed snow from 0°C to -4°C (32°F to 25°F).
VP70 - Yellow klister (coming soon)
Yellow klister-wax designed for moist and beginning wet, new snow. Can also be used in moderate transformed snow until just below the freezing point. If you experience very wet, new snow or coarse transformed snow klister is recommended. The wax contains a new additive designed to impart maximum lubricity. This improves the stick-slip properties of the wax and gives an excellent feeling.
For new and new-fallen fine-grained snow from 0°C to 3°C (32°F to 38°F).
Old/partly transformed snow from 2°C to -1°C (36°F to 30°F).
