Tip: On the first couple of runs of the day, ride with slightly loose ski boots so that they can warm up and adjust to your feet - instead of blocking your blood flow early and making your feet cold and/or in pain. Your first runs are often the most casual and easy runs where you get warmed up and back into the ski feel, so you won't lose any desired control from the loose boots. As the day goes and your feet and boots get warmer, you can tighten them up bit by bit until they have a perfect fit, and are ready for your best lines.

If people plan to ski hard from early morning, then they should definitely disregard this tip, at least to some extend. In that case just buckle your boots at 70-80% instead of 100.

@6 6 Granted I ski very hard myself, but this doesn't have anything to do with that. The thing is, ski boots are not made to fit perfectly under all conditions. They shrink and expand, and mold around your feet, and especially in cold weather the ski boots will easily tighten up early in the morning before you get some heat into them. Even a comfortable fit at first can later result in cutting off blood flow, because while the boots are not super tight, they still don't have the perfect fit with your feet, and can tighten up even more in the cold. But aside from that, it is always good to have your boots somewhat tight fitting, in case that a hazard appears and you need to make a quick maneuver. snugly tightened boots might be the difference between twisting your leg/ankle, or skiing out of it without trouble. I've seen it happen a few times. And it's just advice anyways, people can do what they want, who cares if something is "overhyped" or not.

@Real_MisterSir

5 жыл бұрын

@6 6 Yes that is also what I do, at least when I just ski casually. And opening your boots whenever you are in lifts etc is also a good way to get some blood circulation through - but I figured that this is common practice anyways and not something people would not know/think about. I very rarely have my buckles in an uncomfortably tight setting, but that's mainly because my boots have had time to take shape after my feet and are so snug that a tight comfortable fit is tight enough for even the gnarliest runs. If ski boots are relatively new they might not have taken the full shape of your feet yet and that can cause tight buckles to be uncomfortable too.

Avoid the busy trails by going in the woods and getting lost. Less time on the lift, more time on the hill.

*TIP TO GET POWDER TO YOURSELF FOR AN ENTIRE DAY:* If you are into riding sweet powder, and the weather just delivered a huge dump - DON'T go to the big and famous resorts. Instead, go to a nearby small and local resort, because chances are that all the eager pow hunters will be flocking to the big resorts and run the place dry in hours, while you will have the entire small resort to yourself because locals and families normally don't go skiing when its snowing a lot. Personal experience: Was staying in Chamonix a few years ago with some friends, and after many dry days we finally got a huge dump of fresh snow. I advised my friends that we should go to the small local area Les Houches instead, and we had the entire area almost to ourselves, riding in fresh powder every single run for the entire day because everyone else went to Chamonix as expected. Best decision ever! I've done this many times, and it always works :)

If you're an experienced skier and if you want to try all of the slopes, always go to the steepest/hardest slopes first! At the end of the day there will be a lot of snow heaps and you won't be having a lot of fun. Since you are the fittest in the morning and the weakest in the afternoon you should adjust your style and the slopes you ride in order to prevent crashes and have the most of fun :)

I just go with what my body says. The easy slopes are generally most crowded...so. 1. Beat everyone out to the easy slopes, Do 2 hot circuits on the easy runs to warm up. 2. Once the easy slopes are filling up, then jump over to the black diamonds. 3. Once everything gets crowded, and you are a feeling a bit tired from the harder slopes, move to the intermediate, which are commonly least crowded mid-day on. After lunch, all the people who find intermediates challenging are moving to the easy slopes (making them even more crowded). 4. If you still have motivation left, finish on the easy slopes after everyone else has started giving up for the day.

Here are some of mine: 1) Don't put ski socks on until you're ready to put your boots on. Wear normal socks on the drive to the mountains. 2) use Gold Bond powder on your feet right before you put ski socks on. It will keep your feet from sweating - and wet feet = cold feet. 3) When lift lines are bad, that's the time to do any runs that involve hiking or traversing. Spend more time on the snow and less in line. 4) If you carry a backpack, keep a spare set of extra warm mittens and a second balaclava/facemask in there. It's nice to have spares when yours get wet or it gets too cold 5) Get a voile strap for your skis - it will prevent your edges from getting dinged up in the car, and make your skis easier to carry. 6) pay attention to snow conditions on the lift ride or drive to the mountain. If one side of the trees or rocks has more snow on them, ski slopes that face the same way. 7) If you have an old helmet, bring it as a spare. When a friend forgets theirs, they have no excuse to ski without one. 8) Keep a small bottle of Advil in your jacket pocket. Altitude and cold sometimes brings headaches or achy knees, there's no reason to suffer when you could be skiing comfortably. 9) Stretch before or after your first run.

Video quality is so much better this season! Keep it up! I’m coming to Laax next week, can’t wait!!!

The best ski hack I have got is when you are queuing for those massive 100-200 person ski gondolas. They usually only activate the gates for you to go into some sort of holding pen (before the gondola arrives), then deactivate gates when they know it will be full. At this point you either want to be right at the front before the gondola arrives, or the last ones on and position yourself by the doors (either side of the cabin). That way you will be the first ones off when you arrive - not to mention you can actually look out the window rather than be squeezed in the middle looking at someone's back.

Gear hack: learn to use your gear (seriously). Put your ski pants over the boots once you tighten them. Use the snow belt in your jacket. Learn how to use loops on the poles. Learn how to adjust each piece. I've seen so many people using their gear wrong and not realizing it. Also - wear the full suit at home a week before the trip. You'll quickly find if it still fits, if you did not forget that large hole in the pants from last year and if you still have all the pieces. Do it earlier, so you have time to solve any issues.

Great Hacks! I use the tippy-toes to 360 down stairs every chance I get!

I wax my top sheet with liquid hi-gloss auto wax. Shiny skis and the slush just beads right off.

1. buy some foam pads for inside the boot to create a most custom fit for your boots, 2. buy super cheap boot heaters and plug them in the car as you drive there. 3. Always scream "close your pockets" after the lift, no one can stand the grumpy friend that lost his new Iphone 4. when its foggy as fuck go near trees the wll give you some reference where the ground is and if there dense enough will not let the fog come so low 5. if you are doing daily trips >2h drive make sure to have playlist that will keep you relaxed in the beginning the last 30mins grab some food and let the music gradually become more motivational. Watch out the speeding cameras and always tell your friends that u will pick them up earlier (30mins for southern europeans)

Since i spent half of my childhood in drag lifts, best way to relax there, is to put your poles between the bindings and the boots and place the handles under the armpits and lean on the poles. If you are lifting alone you can fix the t-bar of the lift with the inner pole so you can relax most.
