See below for models and prices

Swenor Skate (Aluminum)

MNC/Skirack Price: $207

This is the suggested model for MNC Juniors and rising BKL skiers. The aluminum frame is not only lightweight but also durable and resistant to breakage. Although some road vibration is normal with this model, the benefits (weight, longevity, ease of handling) generally outweigh the negatives of some road vibration.

Swenor Skate Elite (Composite shaft)

MNC/Skirack Price: $277

This is the model to look for if you are concerned about road vibration and are looking for a plush ride. The shaft has a bit of flex like a real ski, although the heavier weight of this rollerski means it is a bit less maneuverable and poor choice for smaller and/or younger skiers. The composite shaft is also prone to breaking if skied aggressively or not maintained/cleaned regularly after skiing in rain or mud..

Tristar Classic (Limited inventory)

MNC/Skirack Price: $199

This model is ideal for smaller and younger rollerskiers (115lb or less) looking to get into classic rollerskiing. This model is super light and easy to handle which is crucial for a first-ever pair of classic rollerskis.

Fibreglass Cap Classic (Composite shaft)

MNC/Skirack Price: $277

The choice for Juniors and experienced rollerskiers. Slightly heavier than your average classic rollerski, but with large wheels and a smooth-rolling composite body. Please order this model with a #2/#3 wheel speed mix if you are an MNC Junior.
