Answer 2

Most surfboard wax comes labeled with a water temperature range that it is ideal for. Wax used in water colder than its rating will become hard and not provide the stickiness needed to stay on the board, while wax used in water warmer than its rating may melt. Im not to familiar with the water temp. for texas.

I usually lay down a thin base coat of a high temperature wax, usually labeled for tropical water. This will not melt off. Then you put the temperature appropriate wax on top of that. This ensures that as you change your wax for different temperatures, you will not end up with cold water wax on the board directly, which will melt off in sheets while you are surfing.

standard temps are:

Tropical 23°C and above

Warm 19-24°C

Cool 16-20°C

Cold 16°C and below

Answer 3

I haven't been at Padre Island for a lot of years. I would recommend shuffleboard wax for the shuffleboard table in a nice taproom. there sure aren't any waves there.
