When to Start a Child Cross-Country Skiing
Kids can start cross-country skiing as early as age 1-2 -- if using the Kiddie Ski Bar/XC and Tip Lock (see KID-SKI/XC Teaching Aids) with the KID-SKI/XC Happy Skis (plastic skis & bindings). Prior to age 3, kids' feet are usually not big enough to fit into regular X-C ski boots, so plastic skis and bindings are the way to go (see KID-SKI/XC Happy Skis), using regular snow boots -- not X-C ski boots.
At around age 3-4, kids can start using regular 100 cm X-C skis, boots and poles -- all available on this website.
