I have been using these for over a month now, and the feel and performance is very good. My previous 100mm rskis were a bit rough and impaired due to poor local asphalt (many large, deep cracks that become more difficult to slower I go and the less I unweight). Fork Flex Elite are lighter, better balanced, and smoother for me. Pursuit's order support has been very good.
These are awesome skis! They were a little slow to start out, but have broken in nicely! I couldn't be happier with them. Clayton was wonderful to work with and I received the skis in a very quick fashion. I will continue my business here for any future rollerski purchases!
Absolutely love skiing on the Elite Fork Flex! At the beginning of quarantine I upgraded from the prior Fork Flex model, and I have really noticed the improved stability. The 110 wheels are amazing, they feel super stable and I can roll right over small twigs and rocks and cracks without any drama. After using the T6004 for many years, then the original Fork Flex, and now the Elite model, this is by far my favorite.
Very satisfied with this r-ski. Even though the weight is similar to other brands, the Pursuit's weight is distributed more towards each end of the ski, it gives the feeling of being longer than it is, more like a ski I guess. They track very straight, ride height is low, thus very stable. I like to think the 110mm wheels are more able to handle cracks and debris than 100mm wheels on other models. The brake add-on is a nice perk. In terms of additional weight, I don't notice it at all. Excellent product.
Not living in a roller ski community or having any friends that can offer advice can make it tough for this purchase.. But with one phone call it was all cleared up! Offered suggestions for the best equipment Comparing cost performance. Completely satisfying experience with a professional. Many thanks
I am absolutely thrilled to own them. The roller skis test my technique, and recreate the snow skate experience. The staff was very helpful in fulfilling the order, and steering me to the correct product. I am having fun in Wausau Wisconsin, and thinking there may be some citizen competition in my future, without shame.
Kids really like these, great to use on chip seal roads, lessens the vibration
I wanted a rollerski that allows me to get better on snow, means that it has to feel like a snow ski, not only a shaft with two wheels, but a flex that makes me feel I'm improving even without snow..! From a simple activity that allows me to keep the technic fresh when there's no snow, I'm about to adopt it as a real summer sport because of these rollerskis, stealing some cycling time..!
The Fasterskiers review convinced me to give it a try, and made my move because of Clayton Keim, owner of Rollerskishop quick responses to my emails an accomodation and expertise..!
Out of the box, the Pursuits looked well made, light and solid, and felt it when clipped. I was surprised by the smoothness of the 110mn(108) wheels. At 6'3" (185lb.), although a little under the weight limit, I didn't feel the flex right away, but when I started pushing harder, and harder, there I was : 'this flex', what I was looking for, and on downhill : keeping the line, (better than on a friend's Marwes last summer), and step turns felt light..!
The brake is simply light and effective, though if I set the rope too tight, the ski slaps the heel when pulling back from a push, and due to my long legs (37"), I had to raise the handle, and if I had to do it again, as a tall guy, I would go, and probably will, for the same rollerski, but longer shaft (670mn.)..!
The only downside to me I find, is not about the product, but probably a technical matter from my part to correct, and it's not about swingweight, but when I push (V-ing), I feel a little more pressure on the front wheels, otherwise : superb handling, I'm happy with my choice..!
