Backcountry Ski Basics

摘要

Do not underestimate the importance of finding the perfect backcountry boot. SCARPA'S Gea and Maestrale boots (women's and men's, respectively) are medium in width and volume, affording beginners stability and flexibility. With their streamlined three-buckle design, plant-based shells, and cozy liners, the boots balance uphill comfort with downhill performance. There are backcountry skiers who have a quiver of skis, and there are backcountry skiers who stick to the VOELKL VTA 98 skis.
