Product detailed description

YOKO YXS Optigrip 3.0 Black-White, 175cm

Almost maintenance-free classic cross-country skis for recreational to sporty skiers with revolutionary Optigrip technology. No need to apply grip wax. Suitable for skiers with a height of 150 cm - 170 cm.

We recommend purchasing the Rex AntiIce liquid product to prevent fresh snow from sticking to the base.

With Yoko Optigrip cross-country skis, you no longer need to spend time applying grip waxes. Yoko has solved this with Optigrip nanotechnology.

Yoko YXC Optigrip 3.0 Cross-Country Skis

Optigrip® is a sensational concept for classic skiing. These are skis for classic skiing that make skiing easier thanks to this technology.

Optigrip® is aimed at both performance and sporty skiing. We offer active or occasional skiers the option of completely maintenance-free skis. In some cases, race skis with Optigrip technology can be used instead of grip waxes.

Skis with Optigrip® technology are based on a layer of water that forms under the base, and in combination with nanotechnology, creates a large amount of adhesion and very little friction. Adhesion allows the skier to kick, while friction allows glide. The differences between the ski's grip and glide are continually enhanced by the development of new Optigrip coatings.

How to choose the right ski length?

Skis with the complete Optigrip® coating are designed as maintenance-free skis. They are slightly softer and lower in profile.

The ski's stiffness does not affect performance, as the ski uses its entire length for kick and glide. Choosing the correct length is the only factor for selecting and ordering functional Optigrip® skis.

These skis are usually chosen 5 – 25 cm above the skier's height, depending on their abilities.

Select the correct ski length: 5-12 cm above height (beginner) and 13-25 cm (sporty, hobby)

How to care for the skis?

It is good to place the skis on snow when they have the same temperature as the air, which enhances the ski's properties. If you place the skis on snow directly from the car trunk, the snow under the ski will melt and freeze onto it. All you need is a cleaning liquid to clean the base occasionally when it is dirty from grip waxes or dirty snow.

At temperatures around zero or on new snow, we recommend using Rex AntiIce to prevent icing.
