Bare cross-country skis Skating
If you're passionate about cross-country skiing and are looking for a dynamic experience, Skating barefoot skis are for you. This technique, also known as "skater's step", originated in the 1970s and is ideal for those who like speed and physical effort. Using gliding movements similar to those of ice skating, you can reach impressive speeds while enjoying a fluid glide over the snow.
Why choose skating cross-country skis?
Buying bare cross-country skis requires careful attention to technical details. Unlike classic skis, skating skis have rounded tips with no anti-kickback feature, making them easier to glide. At Alpinstore, we offer a wide selection of models to suit all levels and budgets. What's more, our cross-country ski packs are available at great prices! Whether you're a beginner or an experienced skier, there's a model to suit your needs.
How to choose skating cross-country skis?
The choice of skis is crucial to your comfort on the snow. To select the right skating skis for you, you need to take several criteria into account: your technical level, your physical condition and your size (height and weight). In general, skis should be 15 cm taller than the skier. If you're hesitating between two sizes, a longer ski will offer better glide but will be less maneuverable. For beginners, we recommend a slightly shorter model for better control.
The best brands for your skating skis
To optimize your experience on the slopes, it's essential to invest in brands recognized for their quality and performance. Among our top sellers at Alpinstore are Fischer, famous for its technological innovations; Rossignol, synonymous with excellence in sports equipment; and Madshus, renowned for its durable, high-performance products.
