Want to get started

Ive been skiing 18 years doing some lite bc for 3 and I want to get into racing, Ive got the avalanche gear and some skins, im riding mantras with baron bindings and alpine boots(i know). Im looking to start next season but want to start training now and maybe get a new pair of skis when everything goes on sale in a few weeks, any suggestions for gear and off season training would be awsome! Thanks!

Race Tips and Techniques

Want to get started

Hi Mike,
I am going to be, and have been, posting a lot of info on this very subject over at our site: DolomiteSport http://www.dolomitesport.com
You can visit the site and click on the Ski Rando Racing category.
In the coming weeks I will post a How To video and begin collecting info from other athletes.
Feel free to keep in touch, I hope to be more active on this site.
