Roll your own rollerskis
I would like to try rollerskiing, but absolutely cannot handle the off-the-shelf ones. For various reasons, I need ones a couple of metres long, with ratchet wheels on the front and a REAR braking system operated by moving my calves. There doesn't seem to be any easy way of getting components (affordably) to build my own. I would probably use wood for the bearing member, or possibly aluminium section - very light weight and elegance aren't needed. Has anyone done this, or got any useful information? Regards, Nick Maclaren. |
