With this thread revival it reminded to post a warning about using Momentium Cold paste wax with warm temps. I had already waxed a pair of skis with the Momentium cold, but didn't use them on the day I had anticipated. I later used them on a warmer day and learned very quickly just how "sticky" the Momentium Cold behaves on warm snow.
Ha ha. That's why they make a warm snow formula!
Those things happen.
Gets hard if you prepared, did not mark what is on the ski, then you hit it with the wrong condition.
One thing that folks need to understand, is some warm to 'hot' snow conditions will be "sticky" no matter what wax you use.
The worst may be fresh snow that then gets warm and is not tilled to death.
The other may be very warm corn snow when the 120+ inch base is melted down to 50 inches. It's full of pollen, and pollutants. The snow looks very dirty. This is when, even though warm, a hard HF wax will be best.
Waxing for conditions can take years of work to learn.
Again, no matter how perfectly one waxes for these warm conditions, there will be a time when the snow "goes-off".
This also applies to base structure. Once the snow "goes-off", that's time to quit skiing that day.
Where I ski, that usually happens around 12 to 1 pm depending on sun angle, clouds or not to shade sun, and the starting snow temperature of the given morning.
I ski a Mt that has 360 degrees of skiing, so one can see that the north and east sides are very different at times.
