Pre Birkie, Hayward, WI
This is a race that goes on the Birkie trails, but in the opposite direction. It is a 42km or 26km skate race.
The NOAA forecast is:
Tonight: Partly cloudy, with a low around -14. Calm wind.
Friday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 21. Calm wind becoming west around 5 mph.
Friday Night: Partly cloudy, with a low around -8. Calm wind.
Saturday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 22. Calm wind becoming northeast around 5 mph.
The weather looks stable, no new snow and consistently cold nights. This will produce cold transformed snow.
Skis: Pick a pair of medium to medium stiff cold base skis with a fine grind.
Base Wax: Rub on a layer of Solda HC28. Drip on a layer of Solda Performance Green, scrape and brush.
Race Wax: Solda F15 Blue covered with Solda HP05 - S30 mix 50/50.
Ski pair #2 I would try same base with Solda F15 Blue and HP06.
