Hello there
Are the roller skis still available and if so what kind of shape are they in, wheels bearing etc. We are rebuilding our ski program here and looking for anything that may help Thanks Jeff |

Any number of ski shops and other sites can be of help. For example:
- rollerskishop.com (word on their skates is good) - finnsisu.com (Marwe, which are very good) - gearwest.com - jenex.com and lots of others If you're looking for used, find some swaps, watch the classifieds at skinnyski.com and perhaps other club sites (NENSA). Perhaps someone else will have contacts for group deals. Also contact some of the other clubs to see what they've done.

The Russian national team uses them for training and racing. I remember buying them in Europe for ~ $120.00. |

Low cost, speed reducers on all of them, and able to take abuse. Skate skis are $145, classic are $199. Ed Despard |

I've considered doing a 650mm skate ski, and a 750mm classic ski, both
of which would be 50mm longer than my current models. The problem is that with the skate, I've only really found about 10 instances where it would make a difference, not enough to make it worth stocking another design. With the classic, I start to worry about shaft strength and fatigue, especially as it would be heavier people wanting the longer skis. For those of you in NY who would like to see/try the skis, I will be at the HFL ski swap, and would love to talk more about them. Ed Had forgotten about you among the choices. *Too bad there aren't many longer classical skis for those of us tall with with more length below the waist (vs. a common Northern European build that's the opposite;). I use Marwe combis with the extensions, which makes them ~825mm, but a speed reducer would do a lot to widen my terrain and technique range beyond double poling. Gene |
