ORS Country Skis Direct adds 2011 Madshus Backcountry Skis to line up

ORS Cross Country Skis Direct is busily updating their website to reflect their 2011 offerings. This year Madshus Cross Country Skis (http://www.orscrosscountryskisdirect.com/madshus.html) will be featured. Both Karhu and Madshus brands are owned by K2 Sports and they have discontinued the Karhu XCD product line this year but are producing those same skis under the Madshus brand.

The Madshus Annum (http://www.orscrosscountryskisdirect.com/madshus-annum-backcountry-skis.html) formerly the Karhu XCD Guide, Madshus Epoch (http://www.orscrosscountryskisdirect.com/madshus-epoch-backcountry-skis.html) and Madshus Eon (http://www.orscrosscountryskisdirect.com/madshus-eon-backcountry-skis.html) formerly the Karhu XCD GT will all be available for the upcoming 2011 ski season.

Catherine Case, of ORS Cross Country Skis Direct says, "While the name change might be confusing there's no doubts about the quality of these backcountry skis. They all have full metal edges and come with waxless bases. This means they are virtually maintenance free - the only work you have to do is the kind we all enjoy - getting up that mountain or through the woods! We can't wait for snow to fly!"
