Default Wood skis from Sweden

Some traditionalists may be interested in these birch skis made in
Sweden. Also their "EPOK" binding can be used with normal hiking boots.

In English even! :

PS I've even seen a picture of a guy using the EPOK binding
with hiking boot on free-heel ice skates:

David,
Do you have any idea what these skis and binding come out to cost in US
dollars. It's hard to tell if they ship to the US.

Just checked my archives, and found that that the same company
was mentioned here Nov 18 2003.

I couldn't see anything about shipping to US. A price estimate
is about $300 for skis and $70 for binding.

The r.s.n expert would be Greg Fangel:
