Why Choose DataWax Butane Backcountry Wax?

1. Perfect for Backcountry Touring

2. Eco-Friendly Hydrocarbon Formula
DataWax Butane Backcountry Wax is made from an eco-friendly hydrocarbon blend free from fluoro, prioritising the environment while still providing excellent glide. Unlike many other waxes, this one is specially formulated for use with skins, reducing build-up and providing a smooth, frictionless experience on ascents.

3. Ideal for "Base Loading"
Butane Backcountry Wax is ideal for “base loading,” ensuring that your skis or snowboard stay protected and maintain optimal glide even over multiple tours. This design helps keep your equipment in top shape, supporting a consistent glide without frequent reapplication.

4. Iron-On Application
This wax is an iron-on product, applied at 120°C (250°F) to deeply penetrate the base for lasting performance. Unlike rub-on waxes that offer only surface-level protection, DataWax Butane Backcountry Wax delivers professional-grade results and extended durability.
