After a couple of trips, it feels very good to ski. I haven't been able to test it in deep powder snow yet.

The best plastic forest ski available, but the longest option, 270 cm, is too short to carry in loose snow. The tip is soft enough to lift in loose snow. Skin provides grip, but not enough in loose snow. Longer stirrups may then be needed.

In the background, 10 years of forest skiing, first with genuine scale-based tower skis, then with cheap and long Ozooms. Now two runs behind with Peltonen's skin soles, one run in over 10 degrees below zero, the other in freezing weather. Slip on the soles and wax on the skins. Unbelievably excellent skis in these situations! Especially in wet conditions, riding on the slopes of hills and ditches becomes significantly easier when there is enough grip in every situation. Significantly less forceful "stick application" is needed. Edit: long winter of skiing behind me and experienced all skiing conditions from plus to minus 25 degrees. There are also multi-day hikes and long skiing days. Skis just work. I haven't been able to finish the dreaded hair getting wet.

Working games. Good: delicate tip, grip coat, snow does not stick to the top, withstood at least a couple of ditch crossings (110kg hubby), small protruding edge at the edge of the ski, light in length (270cm). Work well when the bandage is installed according to rule 455. Feet pretty suitable for this length and weight It could be better: the grip hair doesn’t hold up as well as I expected (as a reference, tarred as a tree) and there could be more width for better load-bearing capacity. I think 10cm would not be too wide. The heel of the ski should have a slightly bigger bent tip backwards, making it easier to turn the ski.

With a short experience, the skis look good. The tip is relaxed and the grip is good. It is a good idea to have some manufacturer's instructions for attaching the bandage.

The 250cm skis work in a wide variety of terrain for such a 90kg guy, and with the help of the grip, you can easily get to the top of the bigger hill without slipping. The skis fit into the Skoda Octavia easily (the tip reaches approximately where the gear stick is). It's a good idea to take anti-icing agent with you in your backpack if you're going on a longer trip.

A very good and skiable forest ski. The traction hair brings ease on the uphill sections of the terrain. The bow part is flexible and rises well to the surface in sinking snow.

Excellent grip and good glide. Quiet wilderness in peace. Flexible structure. The 210 cm long ones work excellently with a 70-kilo man pulling a hawk with a stump and also well on forest patches in Eastern Lapland.

I used the skis right away to sand them when they were new, then paraffin on the surface. After that, quick cream according to the weather. The holding hair works very well. In a steeper section, when you pedal the ski well into the snow, it holds better. Myself (80kg) was carried quite well by a 230cm ski even in soft snow, of course the limit comes up even there. The tip of the ski is flexible and rises well to the surface.

Good skis, it's good for a skier to ski. There is grip for every weather. In some weather, you lose a little on the slide to a lubricated ski. You don't have to think about grip lubrication, just slide to the tip and base. It would be good to mark the point of the bandage, from the point of view of the grip, it is essential where the grippy bandage is.

They have looked good in freezing weather. Even though they are 250 cm, yes, you can ski with them even in the rugged forests of Pohjois Savo. It won't sink for nothing.

A really good ski, especially for thinned forests, fields and lake ice. At its maximum length, it's a bit clumsy in the dense forest, but even there on the hills the grip is unfailing. In addition, the tip of the ski rises nicely on top of the snow even in thick snow.

They work well on the Kansanlatu rut and in the dead end, on the ridden track, skidding is to be avoided. In other words, the grip is too good, maybe it will give way a little over time.

The solid skins (grip coat) of the skis were not very comfortable in January in Lapland with sugar snow. There was no grip at all on a slightly steeper slope or even a small sharp ascent. Works well on smoother terrain.

I bought the hunting skis 230 long. For myself, this length is a compromise between carrying capacity and handling/transportation/storage. These hunting skis carry the snow better than traditional skiing skis, also thanks to their width. The tip is a little too stiff, so that it does not rise to the surface in deep snow. For cold winter trips, you can get a binding for hunting, where you can put warm winter boots.

Good and high quality skis, although the tip should be a little more supple. In a soft yoke, the tip does not rise to the surface of the yoke, while in Lapponia of a similar length, the tip rises nicely.

very good ski with last winter's experiences. this was a compromise in length, however. maybe the longest would be more load bearing but their carriage would suffer. I don’t know better, there certainly are, but I like this myself.

Good ski runs. Grip hair is much better in batch use than a lubricated sole or grip pattern. The hairs have enough grip on most ascents and snowy benches.

Comfortable skis for such a hobbyist! There was enough grip, maybe sometimes there could have been more gliding, but of course it depends on the weather. I used it as a new one in ski maintenance, where the skis were primed and glide lubrications were also applied to the skin part. It was worth servicing because the bottom of the ski seemed quite porous. And the wax he heard had absorbed several coats before finishing.

The grip of the hair is weaker than expected, the corresponding insoles have felt more firm so far. The hair also shows clear wear after less than 30 kilometers of skiing.

Yes, there are really good sticks. Snow in any state, under water or ice, then works. The grip hairs hold nicely and get a pedaling speed in front of even heavier leather. 230cm long by itself, 190cm / 85kg. It's good to go even in a submersible hang. It was a little unclear to myself how long it would buy it. Agility pondered. But these are so agile that even longer ones would have gone lightly. However, I ended up in lower dimensions because I have to go in between deep in hell. The only downside is the same problem as with general holding hairs; on a platform that has been driven evenly on a hard frost, eg a sled, the go is stuttering. Well that's where you can get when you jump next to a project career: D

Based on three ski runs, it can be said that there is a good grip on the fur sole, and it is not as loud on hard snow as a traditional grip sole. Good purchase!

After a short use, the feeling is positive. The skis have not been subjected to a terribly hard test due to the little snow and the short distances. Without gripping hair, gliding might be a little better, but on a practical level, there’s no downside to me. The grip is correspondingly very good. I think it's worth the price. Edit. Now, after more than a year of use, the feelings are still very positive. Only on very hard snow, the newly spun road, the ski slips sideways. This problem, too, was greatest when the dog went above a thousand and a hundred. In the skiing itself, the feel would have been better.

Super good forest ski. The skins work great. It would be a good improvement if these could be chosen as stiffnesses suitable for different weights. This doesn't really matter in a dead end, but when you fall on a sledge, for example, the holding hair may catch on the bumps.

Good skis in soft snow. The coat keeps well and is quiet compared to the former scooters. If no surprises happen then there should be skis for decades.

The location of the bandage is significant for gliding. Skis could be marked with a popular bandage location. The coat works well when projecting on skis. In immersion snow, I have not yet been able to try out the behavior of the ski. When skiing on the skin, the technique is different from when skiing on a normal traditional ski. The ski works best in front sliding with long technology. I have not regretted buying. Hi. Timo Leiviskä
