205cm Askjem "Kurant Tur Ski" Wood Cross-Country Touring Skis - 1960sWhat a jolly pair of skis these are. A solid example of lightly used touring skis, from one of the big Norwegian wood ski manufacturers from "back in the day". Ole Askjem's factory in Stokke churned out touring, racing, and jumping skis of the highest quality. Proof of this is the fact that these skis (with bindings) weigh an identical 1,825gms each this is rare to find with wood skis. The pair is mounted with a classic pair of Gresshoppa cable

but its legacy lives on in Swix-branded ski poles

The resulting company started production in the 1930s and by the late 1960s had established the 75mm

Mfg date: early 1960s

and for us "solid" people
