Every surfer knows that your connection to your board is everything. You can have the most finely tuned, high-performance custom shape in the world, but if your feet are slipping, your session is over before it starts.
That’s why we developed Chem Wax—our premium, formula-driven surfboard wax designed to deliver an ultra-sticky, long-lasting grip that keeps you locked in through critical turns, heavy sections, and massive airs.
We didn't just slap our logo on a generic block of wax. Chem Wax was rigorously tested by our team riders in everything from cold, local California beach breaks to the warm points of Central America.
Advanced Formula: Designed to build perfect, tight bumps effortlessly without smearing or flaking off mid-session.
Maximum Stick: Delivers a tacky, reliable grip exactly where your feet land, giving you total control over your rail-to-rail transitions.
Long-Lasting Traction: Formulated to stay on your board longer, meaning less time re-waxing before a session and more time in the lineup.
To get the most out of your wax job, you need to match your wax to the ocean temperature. Chem Wax is carefully formulated for distinct climate zones so you never have to worry about your wax melting off or hardening up:
Perfect for the winter months and northern climates. This blend stays soft and ultra-tacky even when the water drops, ensuring your feet stay glued to the deck during freezing dawn patrols.
Built to withstand the heat. This harder formula is designed not to melt under intense sun or in tropical water temps, making it your go-to choice for summer sessions and surf trips.
For the ultimate surfboard traction setup, we recommend a cross-hatch application technique:
Strip the Deck: Start with a completely clean, dewaxed surfboard deck.
The Basecoat: Apply a firm, hard basecoat wax first to build up structured, cross-hatched bumps.
The Topcoat: Lightly rub your temperature-specific Chem Wax over the basecoat bumps to lock in that premium, sticky texture.
Don't be the person begging for a scrape of wax in the parking lot. Keep your car, track pad, and board bag fully stocked with the stickiest formula in the game.
Whether you’re riding a brand-new custom shortboard or dusting off your favorite hybrid, Chem Wax is the final link between you and your board's true potential. Available online or at our Oceanside showroom.
