Reddit reviews Swix Liquid Glide Universal All Temperature Ski Wax F4

Hey there! I moved to Boston two years ago and came to r/snowboarding to ask this exact same question.

1. Board - this board was recommended to me and I bought it. I love it. The big thing is magne-traction which has fantastic hold on ice. This isn't a great park board, but it's great for ripping around the mountain. Stable at high speed and served me very well. I'm 160lb, 5'10 and I got the 156cm length. Probably could have gone 154 no prob
   
2. Boots - best bet is go to a shop and get advice from a pro for sizing. Ski Monster downtown is great. They can also help you with boards and sizing. They'll match online prices, so if you find something you like online, consider supporting a local business and getting it from them.

3. 1, 2 and 3 is easy to use wax. I wax my board beginning of every day. Some of my friends re-wax mid day. Makes a huge difference. You'll move faster and you're way less likely to catch an edge. This is not the best wax ever but its very, very easy and takes two minutes. If you cash to spare, pay $10 to get a hot wax and it'll last you a couple days of snowboarding. A good middle ground is something like this or this. More of a PITA to apply, but better overall. Frankly, I don't think you'll notice the difference until you have more time on your own equipment.
   
4. a buff like this is great to have on really cold days.
   
5. Wool socks are great as well.
   
6. Cat crap in case your goggles ever fog up.
   
   If you're looking for people to go with feel free to shoot me a PM. Also Boston Sports & Ski club is a great way to meet shredders. Good luck and enjoy the proximity to great snowboarding!
