Statement By the scientist that invented the wax. “We have developed a new all natural surf wax which is made from 100% all natural renewable materials. Most surf wax is made from refined crude oil and is much like other petrochemical materials such as gasoline, kerosene, paraffin (some surf waxes may contain paraffin) , grease, and various polymers such as plastics. While these products and chemicals are useful, these can contribute to the degradation of our environment. This wax offers an alternative all natural materials based wax and at a competitive price. Millions of surfers use petrochemical based waxes and this wax is either falls off into the ocean or is released into landfills after being discarded. Albeit, this mass of pollution is small, but even small efforts can add value.” “Our goal was to produce a quality surf wax made from biologically derived materials and from renewable sources. The wax is competitively priced. Our wax has it's own natural scent.” “Our natural wax is different than conventional surf wax. Standard surf waxes bump or produce humps in a characteristic fashion. This is a feature of synthetic wax materials. Our natural wax applies thinner and bumps up slightly differently. Natural waxes also have subtle variations in color and trace impurities like pollen and other material from the bee hive which may show up as artifacts in the wax. These are normal.” Mark Ventura, PE, MS A real rocket scientist
