Guide to buying skis

Skis are the most popular tool for getting down the mountain, and when you really want to geek out on skis, a wealth of topics, categories, and specifications open up that you should be aware of. It is a great advantage to have your own skis on the ski trip – you know exactly what you are getting year after year, avoiding having to get used to new profiles and turn radii often associated with rented skis. Below you will find an overview of what you should pay attention to when choosing the right ski, as well as which brands and types you will find at One Open Sky.

The benefits of having the right ski

Having your own skis gives you significantly better control and confidence on the mountain. When you know your skis and their reactions, you can develop your technique and take your skiing to new heights. Rental skis often vary in quality and characteristics, which can hinder your progression. With your own skis, you can adapt to their unique riding characteristics and choose exactly the type that matches your ambitions – whether you love precise turns on the slopes, want to challenge yourself with race skis, or dream of doing tricks in the park with twintip skis. The most important thing is to choose skis that match the conditions you most frequently ride in and your personal style.

Types of skis

Skis come in many shapes, stiffnesses, and types. Here's an overview of the most popular ones:

Piste skis

Piste skis are designed for groomed slopes and are characterized by their narrow profile, making them easy to maneuver and fast in turns. They have a pronounced sidecut, which provides a solid grip on the snow and makes them ideal for precise, quick turns. Piste skis are often stiffer, offering better power transfer and control at high speeds, but also require more experience to handle.

All mountain skis

All mountain skis are versatile and manage both slopes and off-piste. They are wider than piste skis and often have a softer flex, making them easier to handle in varying snow conditions. With a combination of rocker and camber, you get both float in powder snow and edge grip on hard slopes. All mountain skis are the perfect choice for those who want to explore the entire mountain.

Freeride skis

Freeride skis are designed for deep powder snow and off-piste adventures. They have a wide waist, pronounced rocker, and often a lightweight construction, making them perfect for floating on top of the snow and maneuvering in uneven terrain. There are several types of freeride skis – from versatile everyday skis to the wide 'fat skis' that are indispensable on big powder days. Free touring skis combine lightness with freeride features and make it possible to climb the mountain to find untouched snow.

Park skis / freestyle skis

Twintip skis, also known as park skis, have rockers at both tip and tail, allowing for reverse skiing and performing tricks. They are symmetrical and wider than regular piste skis, making them easy to maneuver and forgiving for skiers who want to learn new tricks. Twintip skis are versatile and can be used in the park, on the piste, and in some powder snow.

The perfect guide to buying skis

When choosing the perfect ski, it is essential to start with your preferred skiing style and the conditions you most often ride in. All skis can handle the mountain, but there is a big difference in how well they perform under different conditions.
