Experience winter skiing sensations year-round with the new KV+ ARROW Classic Roller Skis!
Designed for high-performance athletes and dedicated enthusiasts who refuse to compromise, these skis let you replicate the feeling of snow even during summer training. Featuring lightweight carbon fibre composite shafts with subtle camber, the ARROWs offer a dynamic flex that closely mimics the natural kick and glide of real classic skis.
Compared to traditional aluminum roller skis, the carbon construction significantly reduces road vibration, resulting in a smoother, quieter ride and a more refined on-snow feel. Whether you’re training for your next racing season or simply striving for better technique, KV+ ARROWs deliver the closest thing to classic skiing—off the snow.
Choose between standard and slow wheels.

Great roller ski with excellent on snow feel! Having had a few pairs of roller skis over the years, these are the best ones yet to make the interface between feet and asphalt feel as similar to skiing on snow for me. It’s a tricky deal to get a roller ski to have flex that replicates the feeling of a classic ski without being too mushy which has been my past experience with other roller skis. There is nice controlled flex that appears to maintain torsional trueness so that the skis don’t turn off line when hitting them hard such as in a hard double pole session, or hard uphill diagonal striding. They are very stable at speed given their 71 cm length.
The wheel speed is pretty standard for #2 or medium wheel set. Not too fast to do some diagonal striding up moderate grades or steeper; good resistance for my level for fast DP intervals.
The skis and wheels do a good job of keeping road vibrations to a minimum on those tar and chip road surfaces, or other not so perfect roads. The only thing to be aware of is that with the large aluminum wheels the tires are thinned than many roller ski wheels thus not a absorbent of stones. You may find you have to adjust a bit to what you will roll over compared to plusher wheels as there could be more propensity to ‘chock’ a stone and all that entails. Definitely a great ski and a good buy.

Just a post script to the above review – these roller skis are built to last. The underside of the ski has a polyethylene (p-tex) layer to protect the carbon shaft from the inevitable scratching that happens, which can lead to deck failure. The replacement wheels are readily available from KV+ and are reasonably priced. I just spent a huge amount of time and more $ than I would have liked trying to find some replacement wheels for a pair of Swix rollerskis, which would have been a big deal if I didn’t have the KV+ Falcos to train on.
