Speed wax?

Could there be anything like speed wax that would actually increase speed on a surfboard or skimboard. I've always wondered about that. Any one have any experience making some of your own?

Gee I bet no one ever thought of that (sarcasm, eh?)

learn to use the Search function and you'll find this has come up many many times.  Usually the focus is whether a gloss bottom is faster than a sanded bottom.  You be the judge.

love this stuff

got it here at West Marine

really keeps everything really smooth and dirt/water free

you know how when you leave your board outside it gets all dusty?

well after coating the boards bottom with this a quick wipe with a paper towel and all the dirst and dust come off (except for the waxed decks) so you can put it inside your expensive mercedes/bmw/audi without getting your leather interior all dirty and screwed up.

Just mixed some paraffin wax, petroleum jelly, rain x and car wax together. Seems slick and water displacefull.
