I am about to go skiing (snow allowing) and would like to buy a new pair of boots. Since I use orthotics for running I guess that I should be using them as well for skiing. What do you think?

The guy at the sports center just sold me some wax for my skis. He never asked what kind of skiing I did and I assumed that it did not matter(I'm new alright?). So I went ahead and paid $16 for the wax and cork and waxed my skis thourohghly. Now I find out that this is not the right wax, what do I do?

I am an intermediate skier and have been skiing for about 10 years. I am looking into buying skis and I wanted to know the difference between free skis and alpine skis becuase I am more interested in the choices with free skis but I do a lot of downhill. Is there a real difference or would I be okay with both? I ski mostly at small resorts but have been and plan to go again to Big Sky and Lutsen...if that helps :-) Thanks!

I'm female, 5'10", 135 lbs. intermediate/advanced level skier. Mostly groomers, some powder/backcountry, no trick skiing. I'd like something fairly fast & aggressive. My current sticks are 4 seasons old (Atomic BetaRide) and 180's, but I've heard shorter is the new trend. Any advice?

I just joined my ski team and its time for me to but knew skis anyway so i was wondering if i should invest in a pair of slalom racing skis. Ive never raced before and im nervouse that they're are going to feel very different than regular skis. What is the difference betweem them? Will it feel wierd skiing just for recreation?

It seems like the ratio between snowboarders and skiiers is 5:1, and there keep getting more! they also dangerously snowboard RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, which i find is quite dangerous. I'm not saying they all do, but many. Whatever happened to skiiers being the most "dominant"??

I wear medium-weight ski socks, but when the temperatures drop to below about -20 C / -4 F, the cold affects the feet (especially the toes). I know there are air-activated heat pads for the toe area, and I've seen battery-operated electrically heated socks (but these are usually designed for hunting or wading). What's the best solution for keeping feet warm whilst skiing in very cold temperatures? Thank you.
