The one I buy is MaxiGlide. - loosilu Feb 17, 16:36 7
- and that helps with the double-poling? or for everything else? -- nm - Beryllium Feb 17, 16:38 6
  - It helps for everything but uphill. You don't want to have too much glide or you'll backslide. For double poling, glide is critical. - loosilu Feb 17, 16:39 5
    - You put the gliding wax on the ends, the grippy sticky stuff goes in the middle under the feet. - the liioulu with cowbells Feb 17, 16:43 1
      - yes indeed. For us low-rent skiers, we use "waxless" skis which have some treads for the kick, then we add glide wax. - loosilu Feb 17, 16:45
    - oh, and for Freestyle skiing, you need all glide, no kick. -- nm - loosilu Feb 17, 16:42
    - It sounds like those poles ... *puts on sunglasses* ... were SMOKIN'! -- nm - Horatio Caine si Feb 17, 16:41 1
      - I got a pole here for ya, babe. -- nm - loosilu Feb 17, 16:46
