Answer 1

I don't anything about surf wax but if any tree resin will do. plum trees produce loads.Just make cuts in the bark and you will get big blobs of it forming within a couple of days.Hope this helps.

Answer 2

Organic Surf Wax

Here are the ingredients:

    * Beeswax

    * Coconut Oil

    * Tree Resin (cool water wax only)

For Sticky Cool Water Surf Wax :

The mixture now is 3 parts Beeswax, 1 part coconut oil and 1 part tree resin. Make in the same way adding the beeswax coconut oil and tree resin together and stirring well.

(Tree resin can be bought in the form of granulated incense (as used by the Catholic Church) but can work out to be quite expensive - i.e. buy wax from a shop and save money - but can also be taken at the source - i.e. straight from the tree.

Answer 3
