Description: One Authentic Bar of: "SURVIVAL" Surfboard Wax - In its Original Packaging These old bars of wax are becoming super rare! I have been collecting wax bars since the 1980's, and now I have decided that it is time to let them go. In my collection I have over 50 vintage bars, each one different. I will be listing each one of them in the next few weeks. Old surfboard wax has become a rare and sought-after collectible due to its nostalgic value and the evolution of surf culture. In the early days of surfing, wax formulas were often handmade or locally produced by small surf shops and enthusiasts, each with its unique blend and branding. These old bars are becoming symbols of a bygone era in surfing. Over time, as mass production and new technologies took over, many of the original brands and formulas disappeared, making vintage surfboard wax a rarity. Surfers and collectors alike now treasure these pieces of surf history, often seeking out old wax tins or bars as memorabilia from a simpler, more grassroots time in the sport's evolution. The origins of "Waxx On" surfboard wax trace back to the early 1960s, when surfers needed a reliable grip to keep them steady on their boards while riding waves. Developed by a group of pioneering California surfers, "Waxx On" became an iconic staple in the surf culture, known for its distinctive blend of natural beeswax and coconut oil. As the sport of surfing evolved, so did the formula, enhancing its durability and stickiness to meet the demands of bigger waves and more complex maneuvers. Today, an old bar of "Waxx On" is a nostalgic reminder of the early days of surfing, cherished for its vintage label and surf community legacy.
