Buying a Snowboard

Snowboarders should look for an all-mountain snowboard suitable to all conditions. A freestyle board is too soft and unsuitable for a snowboard instructor course. The Krypto Magtek, Templar Magtek and Circuit Magtek are all-mountain boards available on the Rossignol website.

Buying Skis

The best skis for level 1 and 2 ski instructor courses can be seen in the all-mountain range. However, having the right skis is essential, and park skis (including twin tips) are unsuitable, making instructor training more difficult.

When choosing skis, the number in the name represents the width of the ski in mm underfoot, and a wider ski performs better in the powder.

The Experience 77, 84 and 88’s are slightly stiffer skis and are great for men. However, the Experience 88Ti W NX12 and the Experience 84 Ai W Xpress W 11 GW B93 White Sparkle aren’t as stiff and good for women.

The Hero Elite ST Ti SPX 12 Konect GW B880 Black is Ideal for anyone taking our level 3 course.

Buying Ski Boots

Whilst it can be tempting to purchase boots in the UK at a discount, we advise buying boots in the resort. You will require a tight fighting boot that can be adjusted. Previously, we’ve had customers purchase incorrect boots in the UK. Then they cannot be modified in the resort – it often results in additional purchase.

Whilst we do our best to advise purchasing ski and snowboard equipment, we recommend doing your own research and getting the right gear for you.
