Our cross country (XC / langlaufen) skis are primarily with Classic SNS bindings. We apply grip tape to the majority of these skis at the start of the seasons so they do not need to be waxed. We also share a set of classic waxable Karhu XC skis and boots with another operator.
FYI: We have a few classic XC skis and boots available for children from 2 - 10 yrs and a decent range for age 11+.
