got questions like “what are rollerski ferrules and where do I get them”?
answers below.
There’s a lot of gear unique to nordic skiing, and many options of every piece of equipment. It can get a little overwhelming, so here’s a list of examples of what to bring. Options are listed as:
“good”: basic, versatile gear that you probably already have in your house
“better”: purpose-built entry- to mid-level gear
“best”: sport-specific, mid- to higher-end models
Do not feel the need go on a shopping spree to get ready for practice - most of us have accumulated our gear over a long period of time. This is just a starting point to fill equipment gaps as they come up. If there are any urgent equipment needs, don’t hesitate to get in touch with a coach - we’ll help find what you need.
