Re: Fischer BCX 8 75mm

Yes, I would say that Fischer Nordic boots are smaller than the stated size, based on my own experience with BCX675 as well as an NNN BC boot. I normally take size 44 in street shoes, sports shoes and outdoor boots. With the Fischer BC boot I had to go to 45 and also 45 with the BCX675. However, th...

Fischer BCX 8 75mm

Do you guys know if these boots fit small? Like you need a size up? I tried the earlier version years ago, and the size 40 seemed small for me (compared to Alpina 40 that fits me well). Thanks.

Thanks for the lead. Looking for parts as opposed to a whole setup, but I’ll keep that one in mind.
I've got some parts, older style... I'll take some pictures and send them... Here? Or do you have a mail? PM me. I won't be able to do so until next week.

Re: Style

From the vid I saw of you skiing, you are certainly getting there... pretty good. We can also have fun fine tuning our technique... but, again, it is not a panacea... I was skiing tele mainly backcountry years ago... I decided to take a class — CANSI style. Then I got «sidetrack» to ski mainly resor...

Re: Atomic RT86: Persevere or Explore a New Setup?

I never cared for the RT-86. To me they had no character, they were just planks. It's the skis! But I remember that, in an interview, the late Steve Barnett himself liked the ski (RT86). It is all a matter of personal preferences... but I am not saying that it is not important, on the contrary... Y...

Re: Style

Styles, and schools too... If you look at how the Americans, the Canadians, the Germans, the Australians, etc teach tele-skiing, you would see as many differences. Each year, there is a tele-get-together to exchange ways and pedagogy—it's called «Inter-ski telemark tech». You could find some info on...

That's a bummer Rod. Do you think switching to a non 3pin cable binding like a riva or chilli would prevent it?
It might be a solution... but my GF prefer Rotte ST or Voile (without cables)...

Good for you! If you can find some snow up north... I'll have to do the same.
