ABOUT

YEW! Universal Glide™ is a high-performance, all-temperature snow wax designed to deliver fast, reliable glide in nearly all real-world conditions — from cold mornings to warm afternoon laps, natural snow to man-made and injected surfaces.

For 99% of riders and conditions, this is the only wax you need.

Universal Glide™ is built using clean glide chemistry — no fluorocarbons, no petroleum, no soy — while still delivering the speed, durability, and predictability riders expect from premium performance wax. It scrapes clean, stays fast, and removes the guesswork of temperature-specific waxes.

This exact formulation has been ridden at the highest levels of competition, including an X Games podium finish, proving it can handle real speed, pressure, and variable snow.

If you want one wax you can trust every day, this is it.

WHY UNIVERSAL GLIDE™ WORKS

• True all-temperature performance for changing conditions

• Elite, competition-informed glide design tuned for real-world riding

• Fluoro-free and future-proof as snow wax regulations evolve

• Scrapes clean and fast with no sticky residue

• Clean chemistry without sacrificing speed or durability

⸻

PERFORMANCE BREAKDOWN

• Advanced glide additives reduce friction without hydrophobic drag

• Micro-stabilized wax structure maintains speed on variable and injected snow

• Balanced hardness profile resists abrasion while staying fast

• Clean wax system minimizes suction common in petroleum-based waxes

No fluorocarbons. No PFAS. No petroleum. No soy.

WHY SWITCH TO YEW!

Most traditional snow waxes were developed decades ago around petroleum and fluorocarbon chemistry. That approach worked — but it’s increasingly restricted and falling out of favor.

YEW! Universal Glide™ was engineered for where snow sports are going:

• Increasing fluoro and PFAS restrictions

• Resorts moving away from toxic waxes

• Riders wanting performance without exposure concerns

• More variable snow conditions, especially man-made surfaces

You don’t have to give up speed to wax clean anymore.

Universal Glide™ delivers modern performance, without legacy chemistry.

HOW UNIVERSAL GLIDE™ COMPARES

WHO IT’S FOR

Perfect for:

• Skiers & snowboarders who want one wax that just works

• Riders who don’t want to chase temperature charts

• Resorts with mixed, changing, or man-made snow

• Anyone transitioning away from fluoro-based waxes

• Athletes who want consistent glide without complexity

Note: Dedicated race technicians selecting highly specific temperature waxes for controlled World Cup conditions may still choose condition-specific race waxes. We offer those formulas upon request.

For everyone else, Universal Glide™ is the smarter, more versatile choice.

APPLICATION (OPTIMIZED FOR THIS FORMULA)

1. Secure skis or snowboard base-up (remove bindings if possible).

2. Clean base with a dry cloth to remove dirt and moisture.

3. Set waxing iron to 110–130°C (recommended starting point: ~115°C).

4. Lightly drip wax from tip/nose to tail — a thin, even layer is ideal.

5. Iron smoothly from tip to tail, keeping the iron moving at all times.

6. Allow wax to cool fully (minimum 30–45 minutes; overnight recommended).

7. Scrape thoroughly from tip to tail using a steel scraper.

8. Brush with a stiff nylon or horsehair brush until base structure is visible.

Pro tip: Proper scraping and brushing is where the speed comes from.

COMPARISON FAQ

Looking to switch from legacy wax? This FAQ explains how Universal Glide™ compares — without the guesswork.

How is YEW! Universal Glide™ different from traditional snow wax?

YEW! Universal Glide™ is engineered with clean glide chemistry (no fluorocarbons, no PFAS, no petroleum, no soy) while still delivering the speed and durability riders expect from premium wax. Many traditional systems were developed around older chemistry and often require multiple temperature-specific products.

Is Universal Glide™ as fast as the wax brands pros use?

Universal Glide™ is built on elite competition glide principles, tuned for real-world riding. Dedicated race technicians may still choose highly specific waxes for narrow temperature windows, but for most riders and conditions, Universal Glide™ delivers consistent, high-performance glide without the complexity.

Do I need multiple waxes for different temperatures?

Usually not. Universal Glide™ is designed to cover a wide range of conditions, so most riders can run one wax across a season and still get strong performance as snow changes.

What does “fluorocarbon-free” mean and why does it matter?

Fluorocarbons (and related PFAS chemicals) have historically been used to enhance glide in certain conditions, but they are increasingly restricted and less accepted across the industry. Universal Glide™ delivers modern performance without fluorocarbon or PFAS chemistry.

Will Universal Glide™ work on man-made and injected snow?

Yes. Universal Glide™ is designed to stay consistent on variable, man-made, and injected surfaces, where riders commonly feel drag or inconsistency with older wax systems.

Does petroleum-free wax actually perform?

Yes. Advances in modern wax design mean you don’t need petroleum-based systems to get fast, consistent glide. Universal Glide™ is built to reduce friction and maintain glide across changing snow conditions without relying on petroleum chemistry.

Why is YEW! Universal Glide™ “regulation-ready”?

Universal Glide™ is fluorocarbon-free and PFAS-free, aligning with the direction of evolving snow wax regulations and resort standards. It’s designed to be a future-proof choice as the industry continues to shift.

Is this a race wax or an everyday wax?

Universal Glide™ is an everyday high-performance wax built from competition-grade glide principles. If you’re a race technician needing a narrow temperature-specific formula, we offer condition-specific race waxes upon request.
