Mr. Zog's Sex Wax Quick Humps Review

Quick Humps is the Sex Wax range built around six numbered formulas, 1X through 6X, each tied to a published water temperature band. Sex Wax states each bar works as a single coat or as part of a basecoat and topcoat system, and ships in recyclable paperboard packaging.

The numbering is the whole system. Sex Wax publishes a temperature band for each formula, from 1X for water at 14°C and below through to 6X for water above 26°C, with overlapping ranges in between so surfers in changeable conditions have a choice.

The official guide also states the formulas can be combined, using a harder bar as a basecoat under a softer topcoat, which is the standard approach for keeping bumps in place through a session.

Pros & cons
  • Six published temperature bands covering below 14°C to above 26°C
  • Official guide states the bars can be layered as basecoat and topcoat
  • Recyclable paperboard packaging
  • Clear hardness ordering from 1X softest to 6X hardest
  • No current consumer price published on the official product page
  • No verified independent review score for the range
  • Six formulas means matching the bar to your water temperature before every trip

How it surfs

No independent numeric review score for Quick Humps was verifiable, so the score here is an estimate based on the published temperature system and layering guidance rather than an average of external ratings.

For method rather than product selection, the Surfex waxing guide covers basecoat and topcoat application and when to strip a board back.
