These waxless backcountry Nordic skis bridge the gap between touring skis and telemark skis.

  • Offering shorter lengths and a wider waist, this ski initiates turns quicker and easier; great for on- or off-track skiing
  • 3/4-length metal edges provide the bite you need, without excessive weight
  • Wood cores with air channels provide the right amount of torsional rigidity combined with reduced weight
  • Fiberglass reinforcements and ABS top and sidewalls boost strength and durability
  • Waxless Posi-base provides traction for striding uphill and a smooth surface for gliding downhill

Sizing charts are a general guideline designed for the average skier. When selecting a size, please keep in mind that there could be additional factors that can affect which size would best suit your needs. If you have any additional questions or concerns regarding ski sizing, please contact us at 1-800-426-4840.

Imported.

Comments about Alpina Discovery BC Backcountry Skis:

These are the first pair of skis that I've owned but so far I love them. I know they are slightly on the heavier side and I've only used them a few times for a day but they seem like they will be a great multi-day touring ski.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    I love these skis. Very versatile work great in and out of the track. They are also my first pair of skis but I would definitely buy them again. They got me hooked.
