[Feb 24, 2023] Weekly Discussion: Ask your gear, travel, conditions and other ski-related questions

[u/AutoModerator]

Welcome! This is the place to ask your skiing questions! You can also search for previously asked questions or use one of our resources covered below.

• The guide for beginners by a professional bootfitter and tech.
• The sidebar and related ski subreddits.
• Wondering what gear to buy? We recommend you start by reading Blister's annual Winter Buying Guide. Also, consider asking any questions at r/skigear.
• For real-time chat, check out our Discord

Use this thread for simple questions that aren't necessarily worthy of their own thread -- quick conditions update? Basic gear question? Got some new gear stoke?

If you want to search the sub you can use a Google's Subreddit Specific search

This is a conversation to have with a doctor, and maybe also a bootfitter. Certainly don't take any advice from internet strangers.

Don't worry: I'm not going to take Reddit comments as gospel. I was hoping some enthusiasts might share my experience or have some suggestions that would give me some direction before I go to a shop and get sold a pair of boots I don't need. ;)
