Spitfire Curb Wax is an essential piece of kit for any skater who loves to grind and slide. This compact wax – often moulded in the shape of the iconic Bighead logo or a simple handy block – is formulated to reduce friction on concrete, metal, or wooden surfaces, making your grinds smoother and longer. The wax itself is a special paraffin-based blend that’s hard enough to not crumble in your pocket, but soft enough to apply easily on rough surfaces. Using it is simple: rub the wax along the edge of a curb, ledge, rail, or even the base of your board for a slick coating that lets your trucks and wheels glide. Spitfire’s mix tends to be long-lasting, so a little goes a long way – you won’t need to cake it on continuously. It’s also usually a bright colour (like red or orange) with that Spitfire swirl or flame-head stamped on, so it’s hard to lose in your bag and looks cool, too. This particular curb wax might even come in a reusable tin or wrapper to keep the rest of your gear from getting waxy (some editions do, others are just wrapped). Dimensions are small enough to fit in your palm, meaning it stashes easily in a pocket or backpack. Beyond skating, one block can last ages, and it’s great to have during those missions to a fresh spot where the ledges are dry or crusty. And of course, it’s emblazoned with the Spitfire name, which has basically become shorthand for “quality” in skateboarding. Keep Spitfire Curb Wax on you, and you’ll never have to bail a grind for lack of slide – you’ll be the one “lighting up” the spot (figuratively, that is!).
