RIDE WITH GRANNY

Granny's latest journey started in 2019. Back then we had the first ski tests and were able to beat 8 World Cup level fluorine waxes. Today, after an imaginable fun journey, we are soon coming commercial. Our web store is not yet open, but via granny@grannysride.com you can ask for more information about our waxes; and order some products with a limited availability.

Our goal is to create glide waxes that will be better than fluorine, thus making this ridiculous fluorine testing obsolete. 

In our R&D, we use state-of-art testing methods that can in best situations boost our product development to unmatched levels. The final testing will still happen on skis, but our lab testing provides a great help to our small team.

ALL OUR PRODUCTS ARE 100% FLUORINE FREE !

PRODUCTS & SERVICES

Our commercial appearance has been delayed due to constant improvements on our R&D. Originally, commercial products were supposed to be launched at fall 2022. This didn't happen because our every new test product appeared to be faster than the previous ones. So, we simply had to wait and see when it is appropriate to start the commercial launching. Now, we have found working concept and the products that we can manufacture with high self-esteem.

GLIDE WAXES (ALL FLUORINE FREE)

Currently, 100% of our test line waxes are glide waxes. The main products aimed to the commercial markets are racing blocks. This simply because racing blocks have more application methods. You can rub, melt or roto wool (cloth)  apply them.

Our latest innovation is reactive additive "z" that extends the application ranges beyond any competitor.

GRIP WAXES

Currently, Granny is not developing any grip waxes, but via our partners, we can deliver World Cup level grip waxes.

NEWS FROM OUR R&D

We’re excited to announce that we’ve entered the testing phase for our latest wax innovation: the “Synthetic Fluor” Wax. While this product is 100% fluor-free, it incorporates advanced characteristics that mimic the performance benefits traditionally associated with fluor.

Our first “synthetic fluor-without fluor” wax is built on the GR400 series wax base.

HOW TO USE:

  1. Apply a thin layer of our GR401 service wax using a hot iron. Scrape and finish with rotonylon.
  2. Follow up with the GR6421E “Synthetic Fluor,” also applied with a hot iron.
  3. Scrape and finish with rotonylon. That’s it!

Experience the enhanced glide and performance, without compromising on competitive standards!

GRANNY'S STORY

Introducing Granny's Ride Ski Waxes: Inspired by the Courageous Spirit of a Nordic Legend

Step into the captivating world of Granny, a resilient soul born amidst the pristine landscapes of Eastern Finland in 1900. As the youngest daughter among seven siblings, Granny's journey was woven with fortuitous twists and challenges that shaped her into a remarkable figure of determination and innovation.

In her youth, Granny embarked on perilous school trips, navigating the wintry terrain with wolves lurking in the shadows. Undeterred, she embraced her father's simple wisdom: "Ski faster." Fuelled by her indomitable spirit, Granny delved into the realm of ski craftsmanship, scouring city libraries for knowledge and mastering the art of ski waxing and refinement.

Armed with her newfound expertise, Granny carved her path to success, earning accolades in local ski races and igniting a passion for crafting her own ski waxes. Through relentless experimentation and unwavering dedication, Granny's homemade formulas soared to prominence, propelling her to victory and earning the admiration of her community.

As time unfolded, Granny's legacy flourished, touching the lives of her descendants. Her son, a valiant soldier, found solace in Granny's waxes amidst the turmoil of war, emerging as a decorated hero with tales of resilience and triumph.

Generations later, Granny's grandson etched his name in Olympic history, his feats embellished by the enduring quality of Granny's Ride Ski Waxes. Each medal, a testament to Granny's enduring legacy of excellence and innovation.

While Granny's tale may be fictional, her spirit lives on in every batch of Granny's Ride Ski Waxes. With a commitment to quality and a nod to Granny's pioneering legacy, we invite you to experience the unparalleled glide and performance of our products. Embrace the spirit of adventure. Ride with Granny.
