Update:
The open day race is officially on, with Loveland Ski Resort aiming for an opening date of mid-October or early November. So now is the time to start dreaming about the ski season and get ready with the latest equipment.
Gordon Wade of Christy Sports shares what you need to know to prepare for the season, as well as some of the latest and greatest equipment you might consider upgrading.
There are new technologies and new equipment that we are excited about this year:
If you haven’t upgraded your boots lately, now is the perfect time. They now incorporate gripwalk on the soles to make walking easier, safer and more comfortable.
The Googles have also come a long way. It’s easier than ever to change the lenses on your glasses depending on the weather.
Wearing a helmet in the mountains has really become a must for everyone. This technology has also come a long way with multidimensional impact protection systems, which allow safe movement inside the helmet.
If you’re new to the area, new to skiing or snowboarding for the first time, or have kids ready for the slopes, the best way to prepare for the season is to check out vacation rental packages. .
