Design & Composition

Buster Surfboards Sticky Bumps Original Surfboard Wax is designed specifically for cool water temperatures between 14C 19C (57F - 66F). The composition features a unique blend of natural ingredients like bamboo and beeswax, along with synthetic polymers. This combination creates an incredibly sticky wax that provides excellent traction on your board. The appearance is typical for surf waxes: a bright color palette often includes vibrant greens, blues, yellows, oranges, and pinks - all designed to stand out against the wood grain of the surfboard. The packaging comes in a standard 3.5oz (100g) block that's easy to grip even with wet hands.

Durability & Longevity

One of the standout features of Sticky Bumps Original Surfboard Wax is its durability. Unlike some other waxes on the market, this one tends to last longer in saltwater conditions without crumbling or losing its stickiness quickly. The beeswax and bamboo composition helps maintain a consistent texture over time, meaning you won't need to re-wax as frequently compared to other brands. This also translates into better value for money as each block provides more surf sessions per application. However, the longevity can still vary depending on factors like water temperature, wave size, and how often you wipe your feet across the deck while riding.

Effectiveness Grip & Traction

The primary function of any surfboard wax is to provide grip and traction, and Buster Surfboards Sticky Bumps Original excels in this area. The unique blend of ingredients creates a very sticky surface that allows surfers to confidently ride waves without worrying about slipping or losing control. Many users have praised the exceptional level of grip offered by this wax, especially when compared to other brands theyve tried. Even during powerful turns and maneuvers, feet remain firmly planted on the board. This is particularly beneficial for intermediate to advanced surfers who often push their boards (and themselves!) to the limit.

Ease of Application Waxing Your Board

Applying Buster Surfboards Sticky Bumps Original Surfboard Wax is a straightforward process that can be completed in just a few minutes. Here's how:

  1. Clean your board: Before applying wax, ensure that the surfboard deck is clean and free from any loose debris or old wax residue.
  2. Rub the block vigorously: Rub the surf wax block against the surface of your surfboard using firm pressure. Start at one end and work towards the other in a circular motion. Focus on areas where you place your feet most frequently, like the front foot area and tail.
  3. Warm with hands: Once an initial layer is applied, warm up the wax by rubbing it between your palms until it becomes slightly softer. This helps to create a smoother surface for better traction.
  4. Repeat process: Continue applying layers of wax until you achieve desired coverage and stickiness. You can add more pressure as you go to increase grip.
  5. Optional: Use a surf comb: For an even finish, use a surf comb (included) to gently brush away any excess wax or smooth out any bumps.
