Thank you for this informative and entertaining article.

See you on the slopes! Do all ski waxes contain PFAS?

It’s my impression that most of not all ski waxes contain these chemicals. There is some effort being exerted on the industry to reduce or completely remove them.

Thank you, and please let me know if you find a PFAS-free wax that does an acceptable job. Meanwhile, I'll modify my hot-waxing protocol. Stay safe!
