Consistent slide. Predictable speed. Built clean.
YEW! Extra Slick Skate Wax is engineered to create stable, repeatable slide velocities on metal, concrete, and ledges — helping skaters reduce one of the most common external variables that affects trick execution: inconsistent surface friction.
This is not “just faster wax.”
This is controlled glide, built for consistency.
⸻
Why Consistency Matters (And What Wax Can — and Can’t — Fix)
Tricks break down for many reasons:
• skill level
• repetition and practice
• timing and approach
• fatigue and conditions
Wax doesn’t replace skill — and it shouldn’t.
What it can do is remove one major variable: unpredictable friction.
When surfaces slide differently every attempt:
• timing becomes harder to repeat
• rotation rates change unexpectedly
• confidence drops
• commitment hesitates
YEW! Extra Slick is designed to stabilize surface behavior, so progression feels more repeatable and controlled.
Consistency doesn’t land tricks.
It makes learning and committing more reliable.

How It Supports Trick Progression
Stable slide velocity helps skaters:
• judge approach timing more accurately
• maintain consistent angular momentum
• predict lock-in and release points
• repeat attempts without recalibration
When friction behaves the same way:
• muscle memory builds faster
• balance stays centered
• confidence increases naturally
That’s why experienced skaters value predictable glide over raw speed.
⸻
Surface Performance
On metal
• smooth, predictable lock-in
• consistent mid-grind speed
• reduced chatter and hang-ups
On concrete & ledges
• fills micro-gaps and rough texture
• reduces friction spikes
• maintains consistent slide feel session to session
The goal isn’t chaos — it’s flow you can trust.
⸻
Speed, Tuned by the Skater
Extra Slick is softer and faster than traditional hard block wax — intentionally.
• light application → controlled glide
• heavier application → higher speed
The wax doesn’t force speed.
Your application sets velocity.
Newer skaters should start light and build gradually.

Clean Materials. Real Spots.
YEW! Extra Slick is made without:
• petroleum waxes
• soy fillers
• synthetic fragrance oils
• harsh chemical additives
Skate wax ends up on public surfaces.
Clean formulation matters.
⸻
Sustainability (Built In, Not Bragged About)
YEW! uses responsibly sourced beeswax from U.S. bee-centric beekeepers, including wax from managed, overcrowded hives.
Better materials. Cleaner skating.
⸻
Scent (Minimal, Intentional)
Lightly scented with natural lemon and grapefruit essential oils.
• subtle and clean
• no synthetic fragrance oils
• no greasy residue
⸻
Application Tips
• apply lightly — a little goes a long way
• gentle pressure beats grinding it on
• test slide before adding more
• smooth with fingers or board if softened
• store in a cool place when possible
⸻
Final Note
Skating will always involve variables.
YEW! Extra Slick exists to remove one of them — unpredictable friction — so progression feels more controlled and confidence-driven.
This is modern skate wax,
engineered clean and built for consistency.
