- Contrary to common belief, your ski
boot size should correspond to that of your normal shoes.
Boots which are too big for you causes chaffing
and blistering which in turn will cause discomfort and imbalance.
- Always fix the clips on your boots at the end of the day.
Never leave them to dry on a radiator as they
will melt and deform.
- Woollen socks are est to wear with ski boots (only wear one pair).
These should be pulled up all the way to above
the boot.
- Your bindings should be adjusted according to your weight, height
and build.
- It is dangerous to ski with poles which have lost their disks.
Please do not hesitate to change your poles
at the ski shop, should you have this problem.
- Remember that you’d rather be too warm than too cold in altitude
where, generally one’s body heat drops rapidly (especially children).
Drink lots of water continuously as we dehydrate
quite easily while we ski.
- We highly recommend that children wear helmets.
- Before you leave for a day out skiing, always ensure that you,
as well as your children, are equipped with a pair of sun glasses,
warm gloves, woolly hat, warm, dry clothes and sun protection cream,
even in cloudy weather.
- If you’re planning a long day out skiing, always tell someone
where you intend to go and what time you plan to be back.
