There are many How-to's on waxing online for reference as well. Just last Saturday I finished waxing 4 boards and a pair of ski's with also working the edges and p-tex into any rock or tree injuries.

links?

go to burton.com. last I remember they had a great PDF you can download for a tuning guidline. If it's not there....let me know and I'll see if I still have it. If not, I'll write one and email it to you myself.

Waxing in general is very easy. Tuning correctly isn't so easy. But your daily hot wax is a snap. Buy a snowboard/wax iron or buy a cheapy at the store. Buy some wax. Clean your base using and orange based wax cleaner. Put the wax on the iron and drip it around on your board. Not to much. just enough to cover. then melt it all smooth. Scape. buff. done.

if your still looking for places to buy a board. A Sportsmart near my house (San Leandro) is having 50% off snowgear and boards.

Depends on what you mean by "hot wax".
