Binding Installation Info

I AM LOOKING AT BUYING SKIS & BINDINGS ONLINE, DO YOU MOUNT THE BINDINGS FOR ME BEFORE THEY SHIP?

Skis with Bindings purchased online do not get shipped with bindings installed.

When we supply both skis and bindings, binding installation and adjustment is free of charge. However, this procedure cannot be completed prior to shipping as the binding adjustment must be done with consideration to the skier’s boot sole length, weight, height and skiing ability.

This procedure will be performed free of charge by our licensed technicians at any one of Kunstadt Sports locations.

In case visiting a Kunstadt Sports facility is not practical, bindings will still need to be installed and adjusted by a local licensed technician. This policy is mandated by regulations to assure skier’s safety.

Description

When it snows, be ready to go. Skiers who like to leave home for the open snow whenever possible look to Backcountry skis to make every winter day a Nordic ski day. More adventurous skiers know beyond every uphill there might be a sweeping downhill or yet another uphill. When it’s time to climb, Easy Skin models mean easy gliding skis can also handle the hills. Reliable, traditional length Backcountry skis are designed to give confidence in any conditions to local tourers as well as Polar explorers.

The lightweight TRANSNORDIC 59 Twin Skin Xtralite is a trusty travel partner for ski tourers who like to get away from it all on extended backcountry outings. The classic narrow sidecut allows easy forward progress in moderate terrain. Basic downhills are handled easily with the help of solid steel edges. For the uphills, easy-to-mount Fischer Twin Skin adds secure grip.

Lightweight design and construction
Excellent gliding ability
Twin Skin for reliable pushoff even in hard or icy conditions

Nordic Ski Sizing Guide

Nordic Ski Size Guide/ Info

Your height and weight are both important factors when selecting the correct nordic ski for you. To find the best ski you should begin by determining the height of the ski you should be skiing on. With this information, you will have multiple skis to choose from. Using the chart below, you should choose the ski that best suits your weight at the correct height.

Ideal Height

Classic Skis: The ideal classic ski will be 10-30 cm above the skier's height.

Skate Skis: An ideal skate ski can range from equivalent height to the skier to 15 cm taller.

Why you may want a ski on the short side for your height:

You are a newer, less experienced skier
You want to be able to easily maneuver your skis and turn quickly

Why you might want a ski to be on the long side for your height:

You are a more advanced skier
You want your skis to be faster and do not need extra maneuverability

Race Skis

We recommend that all race skis be purchased directly through our expert nordic staff to ensure correct stiffness in the ski.

Junior Skis

Many of the same rules apply to junior skis as they do adult skis. The main difference when sizing junior skis is that they are going to be shorter than adult skis, when compared to the skier.

Classic Skis: Between 5-20 cm taller than the skier.

Skate Skis: Between 10 cm shorter than the skier and 10 cm taller.
