Freeride skis

Choosing the right freeride skis is crucial to maximize your enjoyment on ungroomed and challenging mountain terrain. Here's some advice to help you choose your freeride skis:

• Ski length: Freeride skis often have a wider range of lengths compared to traditional skis. Consider your height and skiing style when choosing the appropriate length. Shorter skis can be more manoeuvrable, while longer skis offer more stability at high speeds.
• Ski width: Freeride skis are usually wider to have better deep snow capabilities. Wider skis are suitable for deep powder, while narrower versions have better performance on groomed trails.
• Ski profile: Freeride skis typically have a rocker profile, where the tip and sometimes the tail is lifted off the snow. This design improves skiing on powder snow, makes turning easier and improves manoeuvrability.
• Ski flex: Softer skis provide a comfortable ride and are suitable for less aggressive skiers or those who like a playful feel. Stiffer skis provide stability and responsiveness for aggressive skiers tackling challenging terrain.

By carefully considering these factors, you can find a freeride ski that suits your individual preferences and enhances your overall freeride skiing experience.
