  • Page 9: Points Before Starting

    Highway Code / normal road traffic! Avoid skiking on roads where there is vehicle traffic. Use routes that are reasonably free from other traffic. Skike at the side of the track / road and in single file. Select only routes, terrain and surfaces that correspond to your actual riding skills! Start on solid, flat, clean and dry surfaces.

    D.2 First steps Before you can use your new skike you must first insert and lock in the wheels supplied. Please follow to the following instructions carefully. Installing the wheels is completely straightforward and easy to do.
  • Page 11 (threaded bolt), up against the tension lever. Insert wheel into the fork From the outside of the skike (i.e. the side which will have the outside of your shoe), push the quick release spear through the shaft hole in the frame, then the wheel and lastly through the axle hole in the frame at the other side.

    Then firmly push the lever all the way down until it rests as flat as possible on the skike frame or fork. By adjusting the wound up postion of both the nut and the lever, you can finish with level being locked firmly in place.
  • Page 13: Equipment And Clothing

    Best footwear is usually running or walking shoes. A wide splayed out heel may be hard to fit into the skike. Note: If the muscles in the ankles are weak or in need of support, it is recommneded a high cut shoe be worn that provides ankle support.
  • Page 14: Clothing

    Protective sleeves worn around knees and elbows are recommended so that even when falling at higher speeds, sufficient protection is provided. Skike protector sets are flexible and have Kevlar sections over the joints, designed to protect against abrasions. Note: The use of elbow and knee protectors or pads is recommended, especially for beginner skikers, children and extreme rider safety reasons.
  • Page 15: Poles

    Just like skikes can be fitted to different shoe sizes, skike poles can be adjusted to different length people and activities.
  • Page 16: Screws, Nuts, Quick Releases, Joints

    Regularly check the correct position of the hinge screws. Never replace only one joint, always replace both joints at the same time on a single skike! The replacement of only one joint on a skike places a resulting much greater burden of both joints and therefore inevitably leads requiringmore frequent changes of both joints.

    ( see brake adjustment section: D). The skike has a wing nut on one side (5.c). By loosening the wing nut and moving the heel strap (6), the position of the foot is also changed.
  • Page 18: Straping In And Unstraping

    Beginner and less experienced skikers should start by sitting down to put the skikes on. Begin on flat ground. First, slide the foot below the two over foot straps when the skike is on the ground, then slide the foot backwards into the heel strap (6).
  • Page 19: Unstraping

    Manual-English F.2.2 Unstraping Unstraping takes place in reverse order. Note: Optimal is a sitting position. If this is not the case, make absolutely sure the calf shell is undone last! Front retaining strap (3.a) undo it until it is fully removed from the slot at the tightening end Middle strap (3.b) undo it until it is fully removed from the slot at the tightening end...
  • Page 20: Orthotic Adjustment

    Take a normal upright and relaxed posture intuitively feel, how vertical the skike feels with this setting. ( Is it vertical or rolling onto a wheel edge?) Repeat step 2, but push the calf shell completely to the right and quick release (5.a) tighten slightly.
  • Page 21: Braking Technique

    Tip: Imagine, you want the skike to slide forwrd under you body - this automatically ensures proper weight transfer of the body to the rear.
  • Page 22: Skike Techniques

    - regardless of season, weather and terrain. The skike v8 LIFT now provides a free heel for skating, as is done on XC skating skis.
  • Page 23: Braking Exercises

    Braking (see section Breaking Technique) J.5 Skating or skike techniques Once you can safely control the rolling skike, can brake effectively and have learn how to change directions whilst moving, then skating techniques used in cross country ski skating should be learnt and mastered.
