    Boots are always the critical piece of equipment, get a pair that fits properly. The brands are all good or they would be out of business very soon. This is a competitive market that eliminates a poor manufacturer, and challenges weak marketing structure in a few short seasons.

    Nordic skiing is much more energetic than Alpine. Dress lighter, you will generate plenty of heat as you ski.
