Skike have always been at the forefront of innovation when it comes to multi terrain roller skiing. Their skis allow you to explore terrain that is 'off limits' to regular roller skis, and will provide you with a very good workout.

Skikes are becoming increasingly popular with ski touring and backcountry skiers, and split-boarders. The added weight of the Skikes (compared to regular roller skis) is not such an issue with these sports.

The family of Skike V9 roller skis is designed for roller skiing on a variety of different terrain, from tarmac to hard packed dirt and gravel. They can also cope with grassy terrain, as long as the ground is fairly firm and the grass is short.

All V9 models are used with regular shoes, which are strapped in, and come with one-way ratchet wheels fitted as standard. These allow you to do both classic and skating technique.

SKIKE V9 FIRE AND TOUR, 150 & 200

The V9's come with a choice of two different wheel sizes: 150mm wheels are slightly smaller and lighter, and give a slightly smoother ride; while larger 200mm wheels allow you to tackle rougher terrain and venture even further afield. V9's also come in the simpler 'Fire' version, and the 'Tour' version with more heel articulation for better 'classic' skiing.

All Skikes come with a standard manufacturer's warranty, and a selection of spare parts is available.

Skike V9 rollerskis are available individually, or as 'packages' including poles. You can upgrade to 'Vario' adjustable poles which allow you to change pole length when you switch between techniques, or users of different height.

We would generally recommend using more robust aluminium poles for Skiking, if you plan on going on muddy terrain.

We often recommend Leki XTA Vario poles for use with Skike V9 roller skis. This is because they are 1. Strong, because they are made from aluminium; and 2. Versatile, as you can make them shorter for classic and longer for skating technique. They also feature Leki's great Fin quick change pole tips and Trigger straps and handles.
