What wax to use- Going to New Zealand

Hey Guys,

Just wondering what temperature wax I should use for New Zealand.

I'll be visiting Cardrona and the Remarkables and I've got no idea what the weather is like up there.

So if anyone could tell me what the average air temperature or range that would be a great.

Also if you know anything about the snow condition and air humidity that would be a bonus.


Cheers,
Benjamin

oh really? that's surprising since i hear new zealand gets some pretty epic snow

Originally posted by humdingaling true can get epic snows  two years back Australia had better base all season than NZ until last couple of weeks of season when nz hit back hence the hit and miss last season NZ had extremely late season folks at work rocked up in late july and just went sightseeing instead cause there was no snow then about month or so later BAM it was on like donkey kong

lol that sounds very similar to how melbourne weather is... very unpredictable..

yeah last year we had a very short season, was pretty bad.

ah ok thanks,

thats good to know. little disappointing i think.

i kept thinkign nz was going to be epic.

well I hope it will be in comparison to victoria

NZ can be pretty epic at times but yeah mother nature has to play the part
