Narrow, metal edge, waxless, 157 cm X-country skis?
One of my wife's Fischer Adventure Revolution 157 cm cross country skis
has lost an edge. She's very fond of that particular model and size (even though what we mostly do is just shuffle along on groomed trails or backcountry forest roads -- no downhill turns), but it's no longer made, and eBay listings are thin to nonexistent. Anyone have a pointer to a narrow, metal edge, waxless, 157 cm X-country ski of any brand, new or used? Thanks. |

Sporten Foresters come in 165 is the nearest I've personally come across.

Here they are on ebay in Canada: "http://cgi.ebay.ca/New-Fischer-Adventure-The-Revolution-Skis-Length-157cm_W0QQitemZ370028386457QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_D efaultDomain_0?_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116" Also take a look at: "http://www.skirack.com/browse.cfm/4,3520.html" at 159 cm. |

Thanks very much for reply. Apparently Fischer made these skis with both waxless (fishscale) and smooth bottoms, and the ebay link is the latter. The Skirack store in Burlington seems to have very similar skis in a bunch of different brands, however. Thanks again. |
