After I bought my cross-country skis, I for the first time feel almost addicted and so happy and full of joy when I get to step outside, put on the skis and go on a 10km track that goes right past our house. When I look back, I remember being hesitant as with all things I buy whether I should do spend my money or not (what if I won't ski that much?), but now afterwards I am very much thankful to myself for buying the skis even if they were expensive. As we say, 100% worth it, including the good amount of experiences I've had with them so far.
