Skate skiing buyers' guide for men

Are you looking to buy a pair of skate skis with bindings? Glisshop's skate skiing packs for men are made for exactly that purpose! Nonetheless, do you still need guidance to achieve your objectives? Don't worry - this buyers' guide will explain everything and, if you still need more support, our experts have even prepared a specific tutorial that covers choosing cross-country skate skis, so don't hesitate to take a look at that as well.

What kind of skier are you?

When choosing the right pair of cross-country skis, it's vital to evaluate your requirements. Effectively, skis that are aimed at maximising performance are much less tolerant than those that are designed for leisure activities. To help you choose the right pair of skis, we have created three different categories: Race/Expert, Sports, and Leisure.

The Leisure category is aimed at skiers who are just starting out. These easy-to-use and easy-to-handle cross-country skate skis are the perfect way to start to experience the sensation of gliding over the snow and maintaining you balance. It's worth noting, however, that these skis are not designed to maximise performance. In effect, you have to bear in mind that you will encounter technical limitations very quickly, and their flexible camber will be less effective on compact or frozen snow. They are a perfect choice for occasional skiers, but we generally advise skiers who want to make rapid technical progress against choosing these skis.

Then there is the "Sports" category: skis for enthusiasts that offer a good standard of performance, while remaining more accessible than competition models. These skis feature the technology that is necessary for a more long-term approach to the ski skating technique. These skis offer lots of room for growth while remaining accessible and tolerant of minor technical imperfections.

As for battle-hardened skiers, they will be delighted with the skis that we have categorised as Race/Experts: skate skis that have been developed as a result of the racing efforts of prestigious brands in high-level competitions. Here, we are dealing with distinguished skis with exceptional gliding qualities. This range of skate skis might seem like a dream come true, but to appreciate them in full, we recommend that you have a solid technical basis and the will and the desire to perform at the highest level.

What size of skate ski for men should I choose?

Despite what you may think, the length of a ski is not determined by skiers' height, but by their weight. This is due to the fact that cross-country skis are manufactured with a camber to offset the force applied by the skier's mass. The longer the ski, the greater the camber and rigidity.

Here is a size table for skate skis.

- 40 to 47 kg = 165 to 170 cm

- 47 to 57 kg = 170 to 175 cm

- 57 to 65 kg = 175 to 180 cm

- 65 to 75 kg = 185 to 190 cm

- 75 kg or above = 190 cm or above

What kind of binding should I choose for my cross country skate ski for men?

There are two aspects to take into consideration when choosing a binding.

First of all, you need to ensure compatibility with your ski boots. Look underneath your boots to see if there is one bar or two.

- If you only have one bar, your boots are compatible with the NNN and Prolink standards.

- If, on the other hand, you have two bars, your boots are only compatible with the SNS Pilot standard.

The next step is choosing the binding model: just like skis, some bindings are designed for performance and others to add comfort or safety for the skier. The choice is made depending on the type of ski you select. You will appreciate that there is no point in putting an ultra-high performance binding on a leisure ski, or vice versa. That's why our experts have already selected bindings to match our range of skis, and therefore you only have to choose from a few bindings once you've identified the standard - and you're done!

A tutorial is also available covering the topic of binding standards.

Your mens ski skating pack is assembled by our technicians!

Once you have chosen your skis, in the right size, and a suitable binding, your work is done. Our technicians will then take care of attaching your bindings to your skis, so all you have to do is put on your new kit and soak up the kilometres on the pistes!

Buying guide for a woman's skating ski pack.

Winter is coming. Are you interested in acquiring a woman's skating ski pack with compatible bindings, but you just don't know where to begin to make the right choice? Don't worry, Glisshop will help you!

First of all, we suggest you read this little tutorial on choosing your skating skis. The experts from Glisshop will explain everything to you, from A to Z.

Which skating skis to choose for women?

Il faut savoir que les marques ne font que très rarement la différence entre homme et femme pour des skis. C’est pour cela que vous retrouvez bien souvent les mêmes skis que dans la catégorie homme. Mais pas de panique ceci n’a aucune influence sur votre manière de skier. Pour vous aider à faire votre choix, vous avez la possibilité de trier les skis dans 3 catégories.

The "leisure" category includes easy and stable skis. These are ideal for beginners or very occasional skiers who are looking for support and wanting to learn how to skate in the best way possible.

The second category is for those slightly more "sporty" skiers. These people are seeking sustainable skis that will support them in their efforts to improve their skating technique. The skis highlighted here have a good glide and a camber that responds very well to give you precise and direct support.

And finally, there's the Race/Expert category. There you will find the most powerful skis on the market. These top of the range skating skis allow committed skiers to reach their full potential thanks to the great accuracy and excellent response of the camber.

How to choose the size of your woman's skating skis?

The size of the skis is an important factor in choosing your equipment. Cross-country skis, and skating skis especially, are both arched. This allows for a better transfer of energy for efficient coasting. The longer the skis are, the more arched and consequently rigid they are. To find the most appropriate skis for you, you'll need to consider your weight.

Here is a size grid for women's skating skis

- 40 to 47 kg = 165 to 170 cm

- 47 to 57 kg = 170 to 175 cm

- 57 to 65 kg = 175 to 180 cm

- 65 to 75 kg = 185 to 190 cm

- 75 kg and + = 190 cm and +

Which woman's skating binding should I choose?

The choice of binding is important. But don't worry, our experts have already pre-selected a table of bindings based on each pair of skis to make your choice easier. However, you'll first need to make sure that the binding you choose is compatible with your skating boots. To do this, have a good look at the norm of your boots. If you're not sure, here's a useful way of finding out: Simply look underneath one of your boots and count the number of clips.

- If there are two clips, then you'll be skiing using the SNS Pilot norm. Your boots are only compatible with bindings of the same norm.

- If you can only see one clip, then your boots will be compatible with all other norms (NNN and Prolink)

But be careful! Contrary to what you may believe, the norm does not necessarily match the brand. For more information, don't hesitate to check out our tutorial on binding norms.

Your woman's skating ski pack is put together by our technicians.

Once you've ordered your skating ski pack, our technicians will take over. They'll take care of fixing the bindings to your cross-country skis. All you have to do is put them on and start covering all of those kilometres of pistes with your new equipment!
