Our view on rollerskis

We use our rollerskis every week to teach skiers in London. What we look for are high quality, hard wearing skis, which give our clients the closest feeling to skiing on snow.

Read on to see what we think of the rollerskis we sell -

 

 
Our view on Marwe 610 skis - our favourite skating rollerski. The composite construction of the 610s have a dampening effect and gives a very smooth, almost snow like ride quality on good tarmac. A popular choice of ski teams the world over.
 
   
   
   
   
   
   
 
Our view on Swenor Finstep - a great classic rollerski. The ski is made of the same material as XC skis, giving it a good ski feel. It is slightly curved over the kick zone which bends as you kick down - like a classic ski on snow. A smooth ride from ski & wheel construction.
 
   
   
   
   
 
Our view on Swenor Fibreglass - the same ski construction as the Finstep, but with slighly smaller, lighter wheels. Popular with racers due to lower weight.
 
   
   
   
   
 
Our view on Marwe SKATING / SKATING with ratchet - good low speed stability from these rollerskis, although you do sacrifice a bit of skating technique. Best choice for beginners needing to build up balance. You can do the classic technique if you go for the 'with ratchet' version. Fitted with hard wearing urethane wheels. Smooth ride from composite ski.
 
   
   
   
   
 
Our view on Marwe 100s - good rollerskis for kids / less powerful skiers. The aluminium ski and smaller wheels means they are slightly lighter than Marwe 610s.
 
   
   
         
  Our view on Marwe classic - with usual Marwe quality, these are hard wearing rollerskis and slower than the Swenor Finstep and Fibreglass rollerskis. A similar ski construction to the Marwe 610s offers a smooth ski feel.  
         
         
  Our view on Marwe Combi - Marwe's purpose built combi rollerski has extendable 'outrigger' wheels, which are lowered when classic skiing. Slightly more sophisticated version of the Marwe SKATING with ratchet rollerski.  
         
   
   
 
Our view on Swenor Skate Elite - this rollerski is a new addition to the Swenor lineup. With a ski like feel from its composite shaft, it is a stylish and more economical alternative to the Marwe 610.
 
         
         
  Our view on Swenor Equipe R2 - a fast, quality rollerski for racing. Designed for speed, this ski is a must for anyone serious about rollerski racing. Our choice for the 2007 GB race series.  
         
       

  Our view on Swenor Tristar Combi - an entry level rollerski which is especially popular with novice and youth skiers. Aluminium ski with rubber wheels, and ratchet for classic and skating skiing.
