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.
Proven at elite competition levels, including an X Games podium — tuned for everyday riders.
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.

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 (30–45 minutes minimum; 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.
