Rollerskis.

Rollerskis are the old stand-by. Reliable and true, they are always there for you in the lean times. Although you may lust for their stone-ground cousins, rollerskis are much more versititle. They can be used in a multitude of conditions, from scorching summer heat, to cold spitting rain. There is no wax. There is no worry about scratching bases. There is no need to hot box. Rollerskis have been there for us all along. They have been patient with our foolish desire for snow. It is time to give them their due. Rise up, children of the beast, it is time to embrace rollerskiing! (by the way, conditions have coerced me to just buy a new pair of rollerskis from www.rollerskishop.com . good price ($229 w/bindings) and free shipping!- see you on the road!)
