Wax Your Surfboard With the Surf Grooming Kit Noir

Surf boards need love and care after riding those waves. They need to be waxed and groomed just like your hair does. Well, not exactly. But anyways, we bet those of you who really love your board want to treat it with something a little special. That’s why the folks at The Make Co., Archive, and Ethos came up with the newest edition of their Surf Grooming Kit collaboration that originated in 2013, the Surf Grooming Kit Noir edition.

They decided to change the packaging, encasing the goods in a powder coated steel and gold case, but don’t fret, they promise that you are still getting “The most sophisticated maintenance kit for your surfboard on the market.”

Inside is a waxcomb cast from bronze and inlayed with Macassar Ebony, a black cotton cloth, a bar of wax and a small bottle of methyl hydrate to clean off any residue left behind by the wax.

The waxcomb features standard comb grooves, a scraper, and a bottle opener, just in case you want to pop open a cold one after all that surfing. There’s also a lanyard so you don’t lose it. Attach it to your keys or your jeans so you won’t forget it.

Wax your surfboard in style with the Surf Grooming Kit Noir edition, and prepare your board to catch those waves.

Because it's still a relatively new streaming service, and because it didn't come into existence with a back catalog, Apple TV+'s library is thinner than most. Even so, the streamer has managed to build a subscriber base in part by investing heavily in quality shows, and specifically in quality shows with a sci-fi twist.

Severance is one of the best shows on television, and it seems like a guarantee that it will be heavily awarded at the next Emmy ceremony. Severance is one of my favorite shows, too, but it's far from the only sci-fi series on Apple. We've pulled together a list of the best shows available over there if you're looking for great science fiction:"

In the first trailer for Predator: Badlands, a predator named Dek is exiled from his clan, only to meet a humanoid-looking life-form played by Elle Fanning. The two of them team up to take on something that "can't be killed," and a long the way, we get some pretty incredible looks at the homeworld of the predators.
