Ski Choices
In our tests a Jr.
alpine race ski (150cm) with our light weight
bindings out preformed X/C Skis (180cm) in glide
rate, lift, stability and turning. (same amount
of surface area) To make the
sled turn and glide you need a flat ski with edges.
Alpine Jr. race skis, Twin tips or Back country
skis are light weight and work the best.
I asked myself
what am I missing, why do all the X-C Sleds on
the market use X-C Skis so I asked some of the X-C
guys on the ski team why they used X-C Skis and I was told
"That's what the stand up people use..." or
" Alpine skis are too heavy and wont fit in the X-C
track" Alpine ski fit fine and with our bindings
are about the same weight as X-C skis. By the
way, none of the people I asked have ever tried
an alpine ski... Try it
and decide for yourself.
