Wax
Skate wax is the essential accessory for lubricating curbs, rails, or ledges that grip too much during your slides and grinds. It helps reduce friction for a smoother glide on rough surfaces.
Need advice on how to apply it properly? Check out our skate wax usage guide to learn where and when to use it (and most importantly where to avoid it, like on already polished marble or copings). A final pro tip: its use should remain occasional. Often, if your trick is sticking, a bit more speed is more than enough! Also equip yourself with a skate tool to adjust your trucks and complete your maintenance.
