Rollerski Wheels

Classic Rollerski Wheels vs. Skate Style

This category offers an extensive range of rollerski wheels and fenders. The initial consideration when purchasing wheels for rollerskis is the style. There are two distinct styles for rollerskiing.

• Classic style, where leg movements are parallel
• Skate style, similar to inline skating, where feet are positioned in a fishbone layout

Classic style rollerski wheels are designed wide for central rolling. Conversely, skate wheels are slimmer and crafted to allow a smoother edge-to-edge transition.

Distinct Front and Back Rollerski Wheels

Each rollerski requires just two wheels. This arrangement closely replicates the sensation of using traditional cross-country skis.

The rear wheel only spins in one direction, while the front wheel spins both ways. This configuration emulates the forward movement akin to cross-country skiing.

Wheel Hardness and Terrain Considerations

When selecting rollerski wheels, it's crucial to think about the type of terrain you intend to ride on. For gravel paths, opt for softer wheels to enhance comfort and grip. If your preference is solely asphalt, wheels with increased hardness are ideal. A harder wheel generates less friction on asphalt, helping to conserve energy over longer distances.
