Tips for Skiing

We finally it is winter and we can dedicate ourselves to a sport that we could hardly do at other times. Skiing White Mountains, snow shelters, often we need to focus on a weekend or even a single day our performance on the slopes and we have no time to lose and even money.

How can we best prepare?

We try to follow some tips to get the most out of our day 'white' or the weekend 'white' in anticipation of the upcoming holidays. Some may seem trivial, but never take things for granted.

Physical preparation.

If you spend your time on the couch, do not plan to be prepared for skiing. Moderate physical activity and following a proper exercise is what we want.


The goal and the time

First of all, perhaps it is a platitude, but choose the destination first, if ever going to decide in the morning, it is always risky.

Food

Just maybe go to eat 'later' to exploit the early morning hours of light, so then you can also decide to return.


Clothing

Bring always a jersey escort and a pair of Spare stockings, You never know.


Equipment

Consider whether it is more convenient rent skis because if yours are old because they do not skied for a long time, if you just started and not have them already bought, unless you have a car 'equipped', it is often convenient, of course, if the cost is reasonable. They are the most important boots that are 'personal' that do not ski, so pay attention to those that need to be 'right' or larger (if it is not used thick socks), close it.


Other regimens

Always a sun-protection cream, To be placed in exposed areas. At high altitude is even more dangerous and even if there are clouds. And for the eyes, always wear glasses.
