Hello there! It’s me, Ikea!
u must have thought the winter is over! not in this neck of woods! hehe… *neck* of woods…
so, there is lot of fun to have with the snow. even for a giraffe, like me. so i decided to learn ski waxing! i don’t have my own skis yet, i’m afraid. but it is good to know how to wax them properly when u finally have them, don’t u think? it seems perfectly logical to me. so, here come some fotografs that i managed to take in the process.
apparently first of all, it’s good to do some brushing with a metal brush. i can understand that. it seems to me that all animals (that i know) like brushing from time to time too. like for example, i very much like to brush my back when it is itching. also, i can tell Angel needs to do a lot more brushing, because his fur is all tangled up, u know. at least most of the time it is. because of hiding in the bamboo basket, that’s why.
so, first one ski..
.. and then the other one :)
so, then, u need this candy-bar looking wax. i think this is for going really fast. then u need to do some ironing and scraping too, but i don’t have any fotografs from that. i think i had to go somewhere and when i got back all that was already done. so, i hope i can try that some other time.
and then, if u want to ski classic style (i can secretly tell you that for most animals, classic is highly recommended, hehe) u need some grip wax too:
and that’s pretty much it! after all this waxing, skiing is supposed to be six times as fun as without! did u know that? let me know! so, cu l8r!
