Petter Northug's perfect wax cabin

Full video: How Petter’s waxing was built

Recreate Petter’s Waxing Cabin (Tools)

Petter Northug’s dream cabin at Mosetertoppen in Hafjell had everything – except facilities to prep skis. We thought the greatest skier of all time deserved the ultimate setup for his home World Championship season. That’s why we at Swix sent a team to transform Petter’s cabin into the ultimate waxing setup completely. Enjoy!

Competition: Show us your waxing cabin and win a signed Petter Northug poster.

You can participate in two ways:

1. Post a picture of your waxing cabin on Facebook or Instagram – Tag @Swix_sport and use the hashtag #swixracing.

2. Or: Post a picture of your waxing cabin in Swix’s Strava club.


No matter where you post – Instagram, Facebook, or Strava – write a fun caption giving your waxing cabin a playful award. For example: “The Tidiest Waxing Cabin in the Country,” “The Most Chaotic Waxing Cabin,” or “The Most Stylish Waxing Cabin.”


We’ll select five lucky winners across both platforms.

These are the Products Petter Uses Under His Skis:
