If you are heading off to a vacation filled with skiing, you will need to make sure you bring along all of the equipment you may need. One of the items you want to make sure you have on hand are of course, your skis. Most skiers advise that you purchase the alpine touring set of skis. These tend to give you the best performance for going up the mountain, along with the trip down. Most skiers also recommend that you purchase a set of skis that are a wide width.
You will also want to have bindings. Try to choose a type that are easy to get on and take off, are sturdy and durable, and include a ski brake and ski crampon. Ski boots that fit your feet comfortably are a must have piece of equipment. Some types of boots have a thermal liner for extra warmth. The more room you have for your toes the better, because this will help hold in heat. You will also want to purchase a harness that fits over all of the lower layers of your suit. Make sure it is light weight for easier walking.
Your ski pole is another have to have piece of equipment for skiing properly. A pole that is adjustable is the very best choice. Poles made of carbon fiber are lighter. Socks in a god warm material are needed. Be careful not to get them too thick though, as they might cut off your circulation. Too thin a sock will mean very cold toes.
Optional equipment may come in useful too, but isn't an absolute necessity. Some of the optional equipment you might want is headlamp.They come on small sizes that won't get in your way, but may come in very handy if any sort of accident happens, an avalanche transceiver, and a small shovel.
Good skiing equipment can be the difference between having fun or a miserable day in the cold. Always look for tips in finding the right ski equipment online.
Alpine Touring Skis Questions
US Military Issue Skis?
The local surplus place has some US Issue Military Skis. These appear to be something akin to an Alpine Touring/Randonee ski. It has a Fritzsche binding that appears it can be locked down for DH skiing. I've seen other (older?) skis that have a telemark binding but none like these before. They also come equipped with climbing skins. The guy at the surplus store thinks they are XC but I know a little more than he does about skis.
Any 10th Mountain Vets (or anyone else) have any idea if I'm right about the skis?
Also...what style boots might have been worn with them? They look like they would hold a plastic mountianeering or a AT boot, but I've never seen US Military Issue plastic mountaineering boots.
Well...I didn't know the Mickey Mouse boots were ski compatable. Thanks for that info.
I was stationed in Alaska twice, and have some knowledge of the skis. You are talking about a cable that goes around the heel. It can be run through some keepers that allows you to down hill, otherwise cross country in them. We used VB (mickey mouse) boots. They have a lug on the heel that the cable slips over. You just jam the toe of the boot in the frame. We were also issued leather Mountain Boots, but seldom wore them for the ski training. Our term for them was "suicide slats". Its not a lot of fun when your cable slips on a turn while downhilling and take a spill with a 70-80 pound ruck sack on your back.
The VB boot has a valve on one side that when closed traps air in the pockets of the boot and assists in keeping your foot warm. When released, it cools the foot. We used to joke with the new troops that if you didn't release the air before airborne operations, and the compartment depressurizes that it will blow your foot off.
You are correct about them being both for downhill and cross country.
