Rollerskis
Rollerski for a comprehensive workout
Essentially, rollerskis are road skis equipped with wheels. Engaging in rollerskiing provides a full body workout and delightful experiences with nature. With rollerskis, you can enhance your balance and coordination while simulating the feeling of gliding over snow. Moreover, modern rollerskis closely mimic the sensation of cross-country skiing, making them an excellent way to prepare for races like the Vasaloppet if you reside in regions with limited snowfall.
Using rollerskis offers a low-impact workout option, which is beneficial if you're recovering from an injury, unlike conventional running, which can be rougher on the body. The joints benefit because you employ a more gliding technique throughout the full motion.
You'll find an impressive range of rollerskis suitable for various skill levels here, enabling you to enjoy the sensation of skiing on snow all year long.
Most cross-country boots actually fit all the rollerskis we carry, and the compatibility works both ways. This can help you save a considerable amount of money and reduce the need for extra storage space.
New to rollerskiing?
It requires practice to become accustomed to rollerskiing, so it's crucial to seek out paths devoid of vehicles or obstacles during your initial sessions. Gravel paths and forest roads are ideal for your first outings. We also suggest wearing a helmet and knee pads for protection.
Currently, numerous rollerski clubs are available where you can practise alongside other newcomers and receive helpful instructions on rollerski techniques.
