For Nordic skiers who like to take care of their own equipment, convenience is often more valuable than fussing about having the world cup level tools. A base brush to work on the glide zones after initial scraping, for example. Starting with one brush, then looking around for where the next brush to be used but getting frustrated becaushe it is misplaced, or left at home. This combination hand brush from Rex has one half with brass bristles to be used as the first brushing, and the other half with stiff nylon bristles for the finishing touch. Simple, easy to use, and better than killing two birds.

• Hand sized combi brush for ski base work
• Half stiff nylon, the other half fine brass bristles
• Brass is best for initial brushing of glide wax, nylon for finishing
• Grooved edges assist with a solid hand grip
