NF WaxES Contain a percentage of Meadowfoam for increased durability and penetration, resistance to dirt, and better glide.
MF WaxES Contain a high percentage of Meadowfoam which works similar to fluoro, yet is bio friendly, resists dirt, and conditions your base significantly better! These waxes perform better than a Low fluoro wax and are closer to the performance of a High fluoro.
HF WaxES Contain High fluoro to give optimal glide in high humidity snow. These waxes are a must for race day.

CURTIS BACCA Pro TechnicianThe wEND MF Natural cleaner/conditioner is a key component in my wax box between world cups, X games and leading up to the Olympics. The product is outstanding, after waxing all types of fluoros and additives into the base, it is vital to get the pores/structure of the base clean going into the next competition. It also provides outstanding conditioning benefits… A “must” for your wax box!
TRAVIS GERRITSPro Skier wEND is my go-to wax for both water ramping and snow training. whether I’m sliding down plastic in the summer, in the arctic circle in January, or through the slush of late-season conditions, I can rely on my equipment to perform the way I want it to, because as an aerial skier, my life kind of depends on it!
NICK GOEPPERPro Skier wEND has been an integral part of my success at several contests. It’s all about having an extra edge when the conditions are sloppy. In slow conditions, wEND helped me maintain speed throughout my runs at the X games, Dew Tour, Dumont cup and the Olympics.
BENJAMIN J. BOYDPro Coach/TechnicianI have been stoked to work with all the crew from wEND, and am just as excited about the product they produce. we have used it for all levels of riders, and it has been an integral part of the success of our program and the performance of our riders.
HELEN SCHETTINIPro SnowboarderI love the feeling of a freshly waxed stick, yet I constantly forget to wax before I run out of time. The wEND MF Natural Liquid Juice is the perfect thing to bring on short trips or for a quick coating on the base before running out on a pow day. I love the component of Meadowfoam, which is bio-friendly and adds performance to the wax. what an incredible product!
KAZU KOKUBOPro SnowboarderFor the last five years I have been using wEND products for all of my riding. whether pipe or backcountry, you won’t find a better wax.
MATT CHRISTENSENSnow Manager at Red BullwEND is a product that works! It’s uncomplicated and gives our athletes consistency in their riding. The Daron Rahlves Signature Race Paste Overlay is a simple solution for that extra edge on the competition.
LINDSEY JACOBELLIS Pro SnowboarderI love using wEND for my race boards as well as my freestyle board. It is a very versatile product that protects the base as well as makes it go fast!
ALEX DEIBOLDPro SnowboarderwEND takes out the guess work. They have a complete and efficient line of products that help me focus on the stuff that matters - going snowboarding and having fun.
CHRIS TAYLOR High Performance Wax TechnicianOn the world cup where all-out speed and durability matter, I have chosen to include wEND products in my daily waxing cycles. ESPEcIALLY the MF Natural cleaner/conditioner. It is hands-down the best and fastest on the market.
DARON RAHLVES Pro Skiercoming from a race background I know the benefits of fast skis and keeping your boards in top condition. I use wEND wax products to get the most out of my skis.
MATT MCFALLEquipment TechnicianDuring the 2014 world cup Season, we racked up an unprecendented 20 podiums and then went on to win two Olympic medals in Sochi. To achieve this success, I relied on an array of products from wEND which constituted 90% of our ski prep needs. Many thanks to wEND for an incredible product line.
