The Demon Base Brush is a really stiff finishing brush with very hard nylon bristles, designed to provide structure to the base of your board or skis after you have applied the wax. Once you have scraped off all the excess wax, brushing creates mini striations in the surface, helping to breakdown surface tension and promote glide.
Solid wood handle, ergonomically shaped for good grip.
But why do I need a brush?
If you take two pieces of polished glass, put a drop of water on one and then press them together, they will stick to each other. If, however, the glass has channels carved in it, the water will just run through the panes. The same is true with snowboards. If you buff your board up using circular motions making it all shiny, it will stick to the snow. By brushing it and making all your strokes from nose to tail, you are actually making lots of little grooves and channels in the base that will help your board glide over the snow faster.
