I am having a terrible time returning these. The web site says “Get in touch with us if you have any problems” Yhea, How? No phone #, no email contact address. Very irritated. Should not say ” Kids” skis, they are tiny. Should really say, for babies. For babies, I guess they are cute, but a baby is a baby, and a 2,3,and 4 year old is a TODDLER. Not a KID.

Useless for any independent (not being held up entirely with the harness) skiing. I have tried having our 2y/o scoot around on the carpet to get the feeling of what having boards strapped to your feet is like and it does seem to help. Rent real skis with edges and enroll them in lessons if you’re serious about teaching them to ski. (It’s like the joke – Q: What’s the fastest and most effective way to break up with a girl(boy)friend? A: Teach them to ski.)

I bought these for my 2-year-old because none of the ski stores had tiny cross-country skis.
The plastic bindings will fit his shoes but do not have the same heel freedom as real cross-country skis, so I’m afraid my boy will hurt his ankle if he falls. This means I have to be right with him the whole time he is using the skis.
In any event he is not quite cooperative enough to take instructions and put them on properly, and the snow is not really sticking on the ground in New York, so I will have to wait until next year to give these a proper try.
As a concept though, it is much cheaper to buy these than to get ripped off for $200+ for a real cross-country ski set when the kid is too young to really do anything with them.

We bought these skis for our 2 year old – not to necessarily ‘ski’ but to get used to the idea of having skis on. We x-country ski a lot, and he has seen us ski, so as soon as he saw his own pair he thought they were the coolest thing ever… so we had a bit of a jump start there. They are very easy to get on and off. If you strap them down tight, they stay on very well, even through small tumbles. Having the poles are great – I wasn’t sure at first for a 2 yr old, but now I am very glad we have them. The poles help our son march around on his skis. They are just the right length for the little ones. I would highly recommend these to anyone who wants to get their very young one acquainted with skis.

I bought the skis for my two year old boy. We’ve used them several times in the snow this season and had a great time. My complaint is regarding the buckles/straps keep falling off when they are unbuckled. We have almost lost the straps several times.
