Dominator Elite Series – Maximum Racing Performance without Fluorine
The Dominator Elite Series represents the manufacturer's most powerful fluorine-free racing wax technology. Developed for World Cup, FIS races, national race series, and the most demanding snow conditions, the Elite line relies on patented polymer technology, advanced nanomaterials, and highly specialized snow tunings. The goal: maximum water repellency, lowest possible friction, and highest speed – completely fluorine-free.
While the FFC series was designed as a high-performance training and racing system, the Elite series is aimed at racers and service teams who want to squeeze out every last bit of performance in any snow situation.
What is the Dominator Elite Series?
The Elite Series is Dominator's high-end racing program for modern, fluorine-free competitions. Unlike universal racing waxes, Elite is based on precise tuning for different snow types, snow crystals, and moisture levels.
The system includes, among others:
- Elite NS series (New Snow)
- Elite OS series (Old Snow)
- Elite Overlay products
- Elite Rub-On and Paste products
- Special products for wet snow and extreme conditions
Each product has been developed for a precisely defined area of application and enables significantly more precise tuning than classic temperature waxes.
The Advantages of the Dominator Elite Series
Maximum Race Performance
Elite waxes were developed to deliver maximum speed even under the most challenging conditions. Especially in competitions where hundredths of a second are decisive, the series plays to its strengths.
Specific Tuning for Snow Types
In modern racing, the type of snow is often more important than the pure temperature. The Elite series therefore differentiates between:
- new snow
- old snow
- transformed snow
- aggressive artificial snow
- wet spring snow
This significantly reduces friction.
Patented Polymer Technology
Dominator replaces classic fluorine additives with special polymers that offer excellent water repellency and dirt resistance. This technology enables FIS-compliant performance at the highest level.
Completely Fluorine-Free
The entire Elite series meets the current requirements of international racing and was specifically developed for the fluorine-free era.
Elite NS – For Fresh Snow
Elite NS (New Snow) products have been specially developed for fresh snow crystals.
New snow has sharp crystal structures, which place different demands on the wax than old or transformed snow.
Advantages
- optimized glide on fresh crystals
- high acceleration
- maximum speed in racing
- excellent water repellency
Ideal for:
- new snow races
- fresh natural snow conditions
- cold winter days
Elite OS – For old snow
The Elite OS (Old Snow) products were developed for transformed and older snow.
Particularly hard and rounded snow crystals produce different friction values than fresh snow. The OS series has been precisely matched to these conditions.
Elite OS1
For very cold, aggressive old snow and hard crystal structures.
Elite OS2
For medium conditions and the most common range of use in racing.
Elite OS3
For warmer old snow and transitional conditions.
The gradations allow the serviceman to precisely tune the skis to the current snow development.
Elite Overlays – The Last Percent of Speed
In addition to the base waxes, Dominator offers special Elite Overlays.
These products are applied as a final layer and serve to:
- increase water repellency
- improve acceleration
- further reduce friction
Especially in competitions with tight time margins, overlays can make the decisive difference.
Elite W – Specialist for Wet Snow
Elite W was developed for very wet and warm snow conditions.
The product works similarly to the well-known Dominator Butter, but has been designed to be completely fluorine-free. It reduces water film formation and significantly improves glide on wet spring snow.
Ideal for:
- Spring skiing
- wet artificial snow
- rain races
- temperatures above freezing
Why Racers Choose the Elite Series
The Elite Line is aimed at athletes, coaches and service teams who want to precisely tune their skis to the current conditions.
The main advantages:
- maximum race performance
- precise snow tuning
- patented polymer technology
- fluorine-free competition approval
- high water repellency
- professional race service quality
While FFC is often used as a training and universal system, Elite is primarily used where the last hundredths of a second are crucial.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions about the Dominator Elite Series
FFC is a simply constructed racing and training system with very high performance and easy application. Elite is much more specialized and allows for precise adaptation to different snow types and race conditions.
For racers, service teams, ski clubs, associations, and ambitious athletes seeking maximum speed in competition.
Yes. The entire Elite series is based on modern polymer technology and is completely free of fluorinated compounds.
NS stands for "New Snow."
OS stands for "Old Snow" (i.e., transformed snow).
This classification allows for significantly more precise wax selection than mere temperature ranges.
NS products are used in fresh snow. OS products are suitable for older, transformed, or technically snowed conditions.
An overlay is an additional high-performance layer applied after the actual race wax. It optimizes water repellency and glide for maximum competition performance.
Elite W is a fluorine-free high-performance overlay for wet and warm snow conditions. It has been specially developed to reduce water films on the base and increase speed in wet snow.
Yes. Those looking for maximum gliding performance or regularly participating in races will benefit from the Elite Series. However, for many recreational riders, the FFC Series already offers more than enough performance.
The durability depends on the snow type, track length, and application. As hot wax, the Elite Series offers high durability, while overlays have been specifically developed for maximum race performance.
The crystal structure of snow often influences friction more than air temperature. The Elite Series therefore specifically takes into account the characteristics of new and old snow, enabling much more precise race tuning.
Conclusion
The Dominator Elite Series is the uncompromising high-end solution for modern ski racing. By combining patented polymer technology, precise snow tuning, and completely fluorine-free performance, it offers optimal conditions for athletes who want to make no compromises in competition. Whether it's fresh snow, transformed old snow, or wet spring conditions – with the Elite Series, the right high-performance wax is available for every racing situation.
