Ski
Low Range (Beginner Level)
Ideal if your level is zero, if you are starting out, or if you are learning to get around on blue runs.
-Injected and lightweight skis.
-Designed for low speeds and to make turning easier.
-Forgives mistakes and requires very little physical effort.
Mid Range (Intermediate Level)
Perfect for users who can already get around on all the resort’s runs (including red and black ones), but who are not yet looking to demand maximum performance.
-Wood core.
-Moderate weight and mid-high binding.
-Offer good stability at higher speed than the Standard range.
High Range (Expert / Pro Level)
Reserved for users who handle all types of terrain perfectly (ice, powder snow, moguls), seeking speed, precision, and power.
-Wood core with plate reinforcements or double titanal plate.
-Racing binding and maximum torsional stiffness.
-Professional or semi-professional equipment.
Snowboard
Snowboards have a simpler range classification, but one that also fits your progression. The final choice will depend a lot on the style you are looking for (groomers, park, or off-piste).
Mid Range (Beginner and Upper-Intermediate)
This is the most versatile equipment. It is suitable from Level 0 up to an almost advanced level.
-Wood core.
-Perfect balance between flexibility and hardness (stiffness), ideal for learning and progression.
High Range (Advanced and Pro)
For advanced riders with solid snowboard skills. These are very good quality materials with a focus on performance.
-Wood core with reinforcements and higher binding quality.
-They differ by greater stiffness (if you’re looking for speed and groomers) or greater flexibility (if you prioritize the park and tricks).
Remember: A good ski day starts with choosing the right equipment. Don’t go too high in range if you’re a beginner, and don’t fall short if you’re an expert.
