New fallen snow -2°C to -8°C (28°F to 18°F). Old fine grained snow -4°C to -12°C (25°F to 10°F). Blue kick wax. For normal, subfreezing temperatures. The VR hard kick-waxes are fluorinated and made for top racing, but have also proved interesting for Recreational and Sport skiers because of excellent properties, particularly around 0°C (32°F).
