Herman "Jackrabbit" Smith-Johannsen is a Canadian ski legend.  Born in Norway a long time ago, he emigrated to the United States, and eventually settled north of the border.  He was a phenomenal skier - by some accounts he was able to ski the entire length of Canada, on just a king can of Labatts and one of those leaf-shaped maple candies, in less than a day.  IN JULY. 

In later years Jackrabbit lent his name to a two-flavour kick wax line that worked in almost all conditions - including that pesky range around 0C.  As a result, undercover agents from the major ski wax brands of the time, who saw a threat to their goal of squeezing even more rent out of nordic skiers with niche products such as "extra special gold klister-vax", KIDNAPPED poor Herman and TORTURED him by making him watch soccer non-stop for 24 hours.  The ruse failed, and Johannsen lived to the ripe old age of two-hundred-and-fifty-something.

Only part of the above is true, but the wax we're selling is for real!  The dry/red product *may* have been used a tad but you can hardly tell - we factored that into our lowLowLOW price.  But are you really going to use it?  This stuff smells AWESOME.
