Red Creek Riller - herringbone warm +15º / -5º

Red Creek Riller - Christmas tree warm +15º / -5º imprints a Christmas tree pattern on cross-country skis for coarse-grained, wet, and man-made snow.

The wide warm-condition tool: The Christmas tree +15/-5 is a reliable primary pattern when the snow is coarse, wet, or man-made and the ski base needs clear channels without making the ski feel nervous.

How to use the product

1. Wax, scrape, and brush the ski completely before applying the hand structure.
2. Place the tool in the direction of the arrow and pull it from tip to tail with even pressure.
3. Use firmer pressure in warm and wet snow. Reduce the pressure when the temperature drops below zero.
4. Do not rill the waxable grip zone on classic skis.
5. Finish with a fine nylon brush and preferably compare against an unrilled ski.
