Most of these are re-labeled versions of existing products, but use at the World Cup level revealed the most important conditions where they performed best and thus the recommendations for snow conditions has changed.
For each product, the original name is indicated in italics.
LCN finds these to do very well in a lot of snow conditions but tend to excel in old snow.
They do take longer to cure compared to some brands, but the finish is quite hard and durable. They respond best to brushing rather than roto-fleecing.
Red, +7°C to –3°C. Best in old wet snow. This is the only totally new product.
Pink, +3°C to –4°C. This is an exception, while great in old snow it is best in new or falling snow, especially zero conditions. New name for Pure Race LDR New Snow.
Violet, –1 °C to –7 °C. Broad spectrum, old or new snow, humid to dry. Particularly good in old, dirty snow. New name for Pure Race LDR Old Snow.
Blue, -5°C/-15°C. A must test in old or artificial snow. Resists contamination well. New name for Pure Race Cold Old Snow.
Green, -10°C/-20°C. Much like the Pink, this Green is the exception and does best in new snow. New name for Pure Race Cold New Snow.
