Yes. Rollerskis are safe when stability, braking, wheel grip, and vibration damping are properly engineered. FF Rollerskis are designed to reduce loss of control—the most common cause of rollerski accidents.

Most rollerski accidents are caused by instability, poor grip on wet asphalt, vibration, and lack of controlled braking—not speed. FF Rollerskis address these issues through geometry, damping, and integrated brake systems.

Yes. Integrated rollerski brake systems like the FF Brake System allow controlled speed reduction without disturbing balance or technique. Making downhill training significantly safer.

Yes—if the wheels and stability systems are designed for it. FF Flow and V-Track wheels are engineered for predictable grip and control on wet asphalt. Where many traditional rollerskis lose traction.

A helmet, gloves, and high-visibility clothing are essential. For added safety on descents, FF integrated brake systems are strongly recommended.

FF’s braking systems are integrated into the ski and activated naturally with the pole, allowing smooth and controlled deceleration without technique disruption.

No. FF rollerskis are designed to brake predictably, and with integrated brake systems, speed control becomes intuitive and safe.

Rollerski stability depends on wheel geometry, contact area, vibration damping, and directional control. FF Rollerskis combine Floating Fork damping with controlled wheel tracking to maximize stability at all speeds.

Yes. Vibration damping reduces harsh road feedback and allows smoother weight transfer, closely mimicking the feel of skiing on snow. FF’s Floating Fork technology absorbs high-frequency vibration before it reaches the skier.

Traditional braking systems often disturb technique. FF’s pole-activated brake systems allow speed control without changing body position or skating mechanics.

Instability at speed is usually caused by rigid frames, narrow wheel contact, and lack of damping. FF Rollerskis are engineered to remain predictable and calm even at high speeds.

Classic rollerskis focus on diagonal stride and stability, while skate rollerskis prioritize speed and lateral movement. FF enhances both with stability-focused geometry and damping.

Rolling resistance is determined by wheel compound. FF offers synchronized resistance levels designed to closely simulate real skiing conditions.

FF Rollerskis feature frame suspension, V-Track wheels, and integrated brake systems, all developed to improve stability, safety, and ski-like feel.

Rollerskis closely replicate skiing movements and muscle use. FF Rollerskis are engineered to maximize technique transfer from asphalt to snow.

Yes—when stability and braking are prioritized. FF Rollerskis are designed to give beginners predictable control, confidence on descents, and a forgiving ski-like feel.

Beginners benefit most from rollerskis with high stability, vibration damping, and optional braking systems. FF models with integrated brakes and controlled wheel geometry are ideal for safe progression.

Yes. When rollerskis preserve natural ski movements, balance, and timing, transfer to snow is very high. FF Rollerskis are designed specifically to maintain ski-like technique year-round.

For skiers, yes. Rollerski training builds skiing-specific strength, balance, and technique, while running lacks direct transfer to ski movements.

Roller skiing trains legs, core, arms, back, and shoulders simultaneously, closely matching the demands of cross-country skiing.

Yes. FF Rollerskis preserve natural ski movements, resulting in excellent transfer to snow.

Standard classic skis limit skating, but the FF V Pro Classic allows limited skating due to its rounded wheel design.

FF Rollerskis are FIS-approved and highly recommended for stability, innovation, and ski-like feel, alongside a few traditional brands.

Basic inspection and cleaning should be done regularly, especially after wet or dirty sessions. Proper maintenance ensures predictable rolling and braking performance.

Yes. Worn wheels, contaminated bearings, or neglected brakes reduce control and increase accident risk. Maintenance is a direct safety factor in rollerski training.

Wheel lifespan depends on surface, braking habits, and maintenance. FF wheels are designed for even wear and long durability under real training conditions.

Wheel lifespan depends on surface, braking habits, and maintenance. FF wheels are designed for even wear and long durability under real training conditions.

Clean after use, dry thoroughly, inspect wheels and bearings, and store indoors. FF recommends annual full service for optimal performance.

Yes, but they wear faster and are warmer. Dedicated roller ski boots offer better ventilation and support.

Classic poles are typically shoulder-height, while skate poles reach eye level. Adjust for comfort and technique.

Most skiers prefer 85–90% of body height for double poling, balancing power and control.
