Rollerskis with brakes push the boundaries in cross-country skiing, especially in terms of safety. They are the first rollerskis on the market that allow effective braking and speed control.

How it Works

The brake is activated by pressing the heel on the rear part of the aluminium plate, to which the binding is attached and by lifting the front part of the foot upwards, towards the knee.

The braking mechanism operates on the drum brake principle, where the brake pad presses against the inner part of the wheel, which is coated with stainless steel. This design offers superior grip and reliability even in wet conditions and works completly progressively.

1. Start by positioning your body upright and centered over your base.
