215cm Blå-Skia Wood Nordic Racing Skis - "Perma-Gli" Base - Nicely Maintained!This is a beautiful pair of mid 1960s wood racing ("langrenn") skis from Bl Skia. Bl Skia, in Norwegian, literally means "the blue ski". Bl Skia was an early pioneer in wood racing skis; its founder, Ivar Halvorsen worked early in his career under one of the first producers of laminated wood skis. Halvorsen took this knowledge and applied it to the world of ski racing, developing light, fast skis with different cambers for different snow conditions.
