Swix XC Tourpack Wax Kit

The kit includes three versatile grip waxes—V40 Blue Extra, V45 Violet Special, and V50 Red—which cover the most common temperature ranges for cross-country skiing. While it handles a wide variety of conditions, it is designed as a travel-ready essential rather than a comprehensive workshop replacement for extreme or highly specific snow types.

No, the kit is self-contained. It includes a T10 cork for smoothing the wax and a T87 groove scraper to clear the center groove of your skis, which are the only tools required for standard grip wax application.

Yes, this is an excellent starter kit. The included waxes are standard, easy-to-apply grip waxes, and the kit provides exactly what you need to learn the basics of ski maintenance without overwhelming you with specialized equipment.

The pouch is designed specifically for travel and trailhead use. It features a durable, zippered construction that keeps your waxes and tools organized and protected inside your larger ski bag or backpack.

These waxes are specifically formulated for the grip zones of classic cross-country skis. They are not intended for use on skate skis, which require glide wax across the entire base.
