If you’ve been around the Birkie enough (or XC ski racing in general), you know that a lot of people get stressed out about waxing and other details around the big day. We at Cyclova XC have a whole lot of experience at the Birkie, and know what it takes to have the race of your life – and most importantly have a fun day out on the trail with thousands of your closest XC skier friends! Take the stress out of your Birkie weekend by having Cyclova XC prep your race skis!
Cyclova XC is offering a full range of waxing, stonegrinding, hotboxing, and ski selection services for the Birkie.

We are expecting a huge rush of Birkie skis to come in for service , so you’ll want to be certain to get them dropped off in time to be prepped to perfection for the big race! Following are the drop off target times for Birkie race skis:
- Skis that are to be stoneground & waxed for the race must be dropped off by Sunday evening, February 18
- Skis that are to be waxed for the race, must be dropped off no later than 3PM on Wednesday, February 22.
- We will be stonegrinding as per usual on Thursday, February 23 – but the skis in that batch likely won’t be able to have a complete Birkie wax job ready for the big event.
- All Birkie race skis must be picked up by 7PM on Friday evening, February 24. We will be closed for the entire Birkie weekend (we’ll be up at the race).
