We offer a few tips for newbies and professional skiers to aid you enjoy the sensation as much as possible:
Remember about the gravity. Never choose the most straight route as is not always the easiest and the most pleasant way. You must always be able to steer and stop when needed.
One more important idea is balance. It's not that easy to balance when slidingflying down a slope. You shall get used to your own stance which is enjoyable enough and steady on the move.
You shall observe certain dress code in order to stay warm. Keep you eye on the weather prediction every time before you put the clothes on to make sure you'll be hot for the rest of the day. It is also necessary to mention that a well-equipped skier or snowboarder has to wear sunglasses or goggles. Safeguarding your face when skiing and snowboarding on the slopes is important to avoid snow blindness. Try to delect the best quality goggles you can buy for maximum safety.
Remember that cotton under layer is not the perfect choice. It's a lot better to wear a thermal layer next to your skin. Put on layers of clothes instead of warm jackets and have only one pair of socks. In addition make sure to have a waterproof outside layer.
Protecting your skin from sun, cold and wind is also important. You do not feel the sun's rays reflected by snow which makes them more dangerous and powerful. Some sun cream can protect you from rays and at the same time stop wind and cold.
