Swix

Swix

With a history dating to 1946, Swix has earned a reputation for providing top-quality clothing for cross-country skiing, Nordic skiing, long-distance running and just about any outdoor aerobic exercise. Swix’s Swedish founder, Martin Matsbo, originally created a series of ski waxes that could be used in any snow conditions; in 1948, all Winter Olympic gold-medal winners used Swix wax. A natural evolution for Swix was to move from ski gear into ski clothing, and eventually into generalized windproof clothing for almost any outdoor aerobic activity. Swix windproof jackets, soft shell jackets, wind pants and Nordic ski pants emphasize comfort, warmth and moisture management. Whether you need a lightweight wind jacket for cross country running or trail running, or are looking for sleek Wind Guard tights for Nordic skiing, the Swix product lineup covers the gamut of active wear for all seasons.

I use these pants for winter cycling they are totally wind proof and on wet rainy days they haven't water leak through. They are extremely lightweight and with a pair of long underwear they have been warm enough for the coldest days so far this year. Great buy!

Swix Ultimate Alpine Ski Tuning Kit
 
Great starter kit
By RPVerified Reviewer from Ontario, Canada on 11/05/2009
Pros:
Complete Kit
Best Uses:
Downhill
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
Have been boarding and skiing for years, but have always relied on my local ski shop to tune my equipment. Figured it was time to learn a new skill and take a bit more pride in my hobbies. This kit seems to have everything you need to get started. Iron, vices, wax, file and holder. Kit is meant for alpine skiis, not boards, but will try and make it work. Also will probably be too narrow for fat skiis.

This jacket was purchased as a top layer for nordic skiing. It is ideal for this - comfortable, lightweight and warm. Fit is good - my husband is tall and slim and the L is perfect. It has been out and about in fairly bad weather and was up to the task, although it probably wouldn't be suitable for a really wet day.

Great: fit, quality, flexibility, style. Could improve: warmth. Unlike my Sporthill 3SP pants, these really need a base layer for colder weather. However, if you don't use them in windy or below-25 conditions, they're great.
