Blast From The Past



A couple of Nordic skiing ads from the late 1970s. Do you remember when you got your first pair of fiberglass Nordic skis, or when you had your first pair of non-75 mm bindings? Do you remember the wave of excitement around Bill Koch's Olympic silver medal? My first pair of non-wood Nordic skis were the white pair of Fischers pictured in the ad, and yes I did own a pair of the 38 mm Adidas blue racing boots.
