Madshus Nano SKC Men’s Skate Ski Boots

Top of the line skate ski boots are not all created equal! Rarely does a single boot offer great comfort, high performance, and lightweight in a single package. That was until the Madshus Nano SKC was born. With a very comfortable, performance fit right out of the box for low and high volume feet, and amazing torsional rigidity from the fully anatomical carbon fiber cuff, this boot is designed to perform.

Fischer RCS Carbonlite Skate Boot
MSRP: $379.00
You’ve seen a lot of skiers on the World Cup using them this season – the black with the ‘Fischer yellow’ is hard to miss. Fischer has put a lot of thought into their new boot with carbon flex cuff, snake lacing, good arch support and neoprene sock construction. The truth is we all have different sized and shaped feet you have to try on your boots before you get them. If you fit into these new boots better then other brands, do not hesitate to get them.

![Fischer RCS Classic Zero](http://images.fasterskier.com/2009/01/fischerrcsclassiczero.jpg" "Fischer RCS Classic Zero"){kind=small}
Fischer RCS Classic Zero
MSRP: $504.00
The Fischer RCS Classic Zero has a special material in the kick zone to be roughed up and used as “hairies”. This ski is very fast around freezing and is spectacular when it is on. Like most zero skis, however, it has a pretty limited range, so it is definitely a specialty ski.
When conditions call for these skis, they almost always dominate the top of the results list.

Marwe Classic Roller-skis
MSRP:$349.00
If you have never been on a pair of Marwe Classic Roller-skis you need to give them a try. The way the shaft flexes under your foot is as similar to skiing on snow as we can hope for. Even though winter is in full force this would be a welcome gift to open up this holiday season.
. In the past I have used a variety lamps — halogen, LED, rechargeable halogen. This is the first time I felt I could really open it up on downhills. It is easy to pick out obstacles in the trail and road — the light throws a beam well down the trail, providing plenty of reaction time. </p>
<p>Mila claims a 250 meter beam length, with a 30 degree beam width. I’m not sure how the length is measured, but that seems like an extremely long distance. What really matters for skiers, trail runners, and bikers is the area within 20 meters or so, and the Mila is exceptional in this area. The width of the beam is important as well, as it allows you to pick up potential obstacles on the edges of the trail. </p>
<p>On the snow, the lamp is just as good. Full speed downhills, attacking corners, there is no hesitation — I have skied on lit trails that are significantly darker than using this headlamp. Depending on the conditions and the trail, it is possible to use one lamp for two skiers — it really is that good.</p>
<p>As an added bonus, the Mila works great for all sorts of other uses — working in the garden, finishing the roofing project, fixing the sump pump — plenty of light for detailed work.</p>
<p>The lamp has two bulbs and a switch with two settings — the user can activate either a 10-watt bulb or a 20-watt bulb, allowing for longer battery life if maximum lighting is not needed. I often use the 10W bulb, and switch to the 20W on descents. It is rated at about 300 lumens. The 3.5 inch reflector provides an extremely wide beam, though it does mean that it is a little more difficult to stick the lamp in your pocket. It is worth noting that the switch is fairly small – given its location, it can be challenging to activate it when wearing heavy gloves.</p>
