Why buy a compact ski?
If you live in an apartment, or simply don't have the space, you'll have no trouble getting your compact ski into the elevator or stairwell, then storing it at home. It also fits perfectly in the trunk of a car, on public transport or in a travel bag for easy access to the ski slopes.
Classic 150 Compact cross-country skiing, the ski for beginners!
If you're a beginner and you'd like to discover classic cross-country skiing in a more leisurely mode: walking/sliding to observe nature and recharge your batteries without too much physical effort,
This is a wide, stable and easy-to-handle ski that will enable you to get started easily and discover the joys of classic cross-country skiing!
Size
The ski is one size 185 cm with universal camber.
Separate ski size: 93 cm
Hook
The grip of a cross-country ski corresponds to the zone located in the center of the sole (underside of the ski).
It provides "grip" so as not to slip on ascents while guaranteeing fluid gliding on the flat or downhill.
There are 3 systems: scales, retaining wax or skins.
The 150 Compact ski is equipped with a combination of scales and skins that provides excellent grip so as not to get into difficulty on ascents.
BASIC auto bindings, simplicity at your fingertips!
All our skis are sold with Rottefella bindings compatible with NNN, Prolink and Turnamic standards.
The 150 crown skis are equipped with the Rottefella BASIC AUTO binding, perfect for beginner skiers.
It's easy to use thanks to its "step-in" function, which allows you to put on your skis automatically with a simple press of the forefoot and take them off by pressing the button on the front using the tip of your cross-country ski pole.
Waxing, the secret of resistance!
When you buy your skis, we recommend that you prepare the base of your skis properly to achieve their optimum glide level. We recommend several consecutive waxings to "nourish" the base.
To maintain the performance of your skis, don't forget to wax them regularly!
To wax your skis, discover our tutorials on our You Tube channel Inovik or make an appointment in your workshop Decathlon.
LEXICLE = Building a ski
Our skis are designed using a "sandwich" process: superimposing different materials at the heart of the ski and across its entire width.
The final product is assembled with a press.
CORNER = core of the ski: wood (solid or with channels) or composite (honeycomb or Nomex®)
BOTTOM = part in contact with the snow, made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), sintered or extruded.
ACCROCHE = retaining zone located under the ski
EDGE LINES = width of a ski in tip, runner and heel.
