There are also all the fun aspects of the practice of winter sports that put the spirits back to the spring.

How to organize your skiing holiday

The good equipment for the good person

The size of a ski is chosen according to the size of the skier and the ski program. As a general rule, for a freeride ski, one will choose a skiskin of its size. For all-mountain and freestyle skis, a ski 10 to 15 cm shorter than its size is ideal. For all-mountain ski or multi-purpose ski, as the name implies, the versatile ski is an all-terrain ski that can be used in all types of snow, be it tamped, bumpy, broken or powdery, and therefore alternate descents on track and off-piste passages. The first criterion for choosing the size of your skis is your level. Indeed, the shorter the skis, the easier they are. This is why beginners can choose skis 10 to 15 cm shorter than their size. Heavy skiers can move towards larger skis.Skiers with a higher level will prefer longer skis for more lift and stability. These very different technical characteristics are one of the reasons why you put all the chances on your side when you reserve your equipment in advance by being able to ask all the necessary questions to the ski rental professional.
