Nordic speedskates where to buy?

Post by Merlingreef » Sat Jan 19, 2019 8:59 pm

Hi,

I have been looking to buy some nordic speedskates, I believe they may use them here as tourskates as well. In the popular shops I can only seem to find hockey skates or figure skates. Does anyone know where you can buy them?

Thanks!

They're called "retkiluistimet" in Finnish.

For what I see in the link, you can use this kind of boots for touring skating and as snow shoes. Can you also use them with ski slopes?

What I can see is that you can use them for skiing and skating. Most likely the sole is as stiff as cycling shoe and will work just as well when walking. That is to say it won't be fun to walk with them. Unless you meant with snow shoes, not as. https://www.xxl.fi/retkeily-metsastys/v ... t/c/200608
