YXC Mini skis, crafted for a skate style experience, are aimed at beginners who might feel a bit hesitant about starting out on longer skis. These are intentionally kept quite short, allowing for easier management. The YXC Series, designed for both Skating and Classic styles, boasts a lightweight honeycomb/PU core. With a medium-hard stiffness and reinforced carbon framework, these skis are also ideal for intermediate skate cross country skiers seeking excellent training skis with superb rebound and dynamics. They feature a stone-ground finish for cold weather skiing and arrive pre-waxed with Optiwax glide tape.
