As the 2024 winter season approaches, it’s the perfect time to take a close look at your gear. While some skiers and snowboarders are happy to ride with last year’s equipment, investing in an upgrade can significantly improve your performance on the slopes. At Alpine Haus Ski & Snowboard Shop, we’re here to explain why it might be time for you to refresh your gear.
Improved Technology in Skis and Snowboards
Every year, manufacturers release gear that incorporates the latest advancements in materials and design, making skis and snowboards lighter, more responsive, and easier to control. For 2024, brands like Salomon, K2, and Rossignol have focused on creating equipment that balances speed and maneuverability while offering enhanced performance in various snow conditions. For instance, the new Salomon Stance series is designed with versatility in mind, providing skiers with stability on groomers and excellent control in powder.
Snowboarders, too, can benefit from new designs like the Ride Warpig—a shorter, wider board that gives riders unmatched stability without sacrificing agility. With so much innovation in the market, you’ll find gear that’s tailored to your riding style, whether you’re into carving, powder, or park riding.
Stay Comfortable and Protected with the Latest Apparel
Upgrading your outerwear is just as important as upgrading your equipment. The right jacket, pants, and base layers can keep you warm and dry, making your time on the slopes more enjoyable. This season, Alpine Haus is offering gear from Arc’teryx, Spyder, and Columbia, with options featuring advanced insulation and waterproofing technologies. For environmentally conscious skiers, look out for brands like Picture Organic Clothing, which combines eco-friendly materials with high-performance designs.
Boots and Bindings: Don’t Overlook the Essentials
While skis and boards get the most attention, boots and bindings are crucial to your setup. A snug, comfortable fit ensures better control and responsiveness. This season, Alpine Haus has new models from Tecnica and Burton that prioritize fit, heat moldability, and foot support. Don’t let poorly fitted boots ruin your day—our expert boot-fitting team can ensure you find the perfect pair.
