Mad! Freestyle on langlauf skis. Must be something to do with too little daylight in the winter and too much in the summer that addles the brain up there

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I think you have to have used XC skis on a decent gradient before you can appreciate the sheer awesomeness of this. I put a mate who is a very good skier on mine and he stacked it 3 times down a 200m stretch of probably 10 degree gradient.
I grew up in Norway on XC skis and I thought I had done stupid things on mine by taking them down blues and (once or twice) a red just to see if it was possible but this is nuts! They are using skating skis and boots though
Scandinavians are a bit nuts, there are many of them that get pulled along at high speed by their dog and look permanently on the edge on control with people diving out of the way.

Fisher produced some specific XC skis for tricks and stuff a few years ago (called jib skate skis I think). Should see what some of the kids (sorry GB nordic team skiers) in our local club get up too/have got up to on xc kit in the past. Never mind what they do on rollerskis.
