Classic Roller Skis
Our classic roller skis are perfect for those who want to emulate the feel of cross-country skiing on snow. They have wider wheels and a stable design that makes them great for practicing pole technique and diagonal skiing. Skigo offers both aluminum and carbon models to suit different levels and needs. The aluminum version provides robust durability, while the carbon model is lighter and more responsive, which suits skiers who prioritize speed and agility.
Skate Roller Skis
For skiers who prefer skate technique, we offer specially adapted skate roller skis. These models have narrower wheels and a stiffer construction that provides a faster and more dynamic glide. Skate roller skis are also available in aluminum and carbon, depending on whether you are looking for stability or lower weight for higher performance. The skate models are perfect for high-intensity training and the development of technique and balance.
Aluminum vs. Carbon
The choice between aluminum and carbon depends on your personal preference and training goals. Aluminum roller skis are affordable, durable, and can withstand daily wear and tear. Carbon roller skis, on the other hand, are lighter and provide a more responsive feel, making them ideal for competition or skaters looking to maximize their speed and control.
Wheels and accessories
No matter what type of roller ski you choose, the right wheels are crucial for a great experience. Skigo wheels come in different hardnesses and speeds to match different road surfaces and riding styles. A softer wheel provides better grip and cushioning on uneven surfaces, while harder wheels offer faster rolling on smooth asphalt roads. We also offer extra wheels, tips, bindings and other accessories so you can easily customize and maintain your equipment.
Safety and comfort
Roller skiing involves training on paved roads, which makes safety and comfort crucial. In addition to offering skis and accessories, we also recommend the right protective equipment such as helmets and reflective vests. Together with our ergonomic poles and gloves, we ensure that your training is both safe and comfortable.
Frequently asked questions about roller skis
What type of roller skis should I choose, classic or skate?
The choice depends on your style of skiing. Classic roller skis imitate cross-country skiing with diagonal skiing and stacking, while skate roller skis are for skate technique and provide a faster and more dynamic workout. If you ski both classic and skate, it's a good idea to have both types.
How do I choose the right wheels for my roller skis?
Softer wheels provide better grip and shock absorption on uneven roads, while harder wheels roll faster and are better suited to smooth asphalt. If you're unsure which type of wheel is best for you, choose medium-hard wheels for all-around performance.
How often should I change the wheels on my roller skis?
The lifespan of your wheels depends on how often and on what surface you ride. In general, wheels should be replaced when they start to wear out and no longer provide the same grip or rolling ability as before. Check your wheels regularly to ensure they are in good condition.
