Gear's up

Boards: Nordica Girish, 193cm, 110mm waist, little rocker in the tip!

 

 

 

Built for:          These work the best in variable conditions, which means contest conditions. For pure powder I may use the Nordica Radict. It measures 126mm in the waist and it is a twin tip with rocker.

Lovin’:              This ski is a weapon with two layers of titanal which means a lot of stability if you go big and fast. I totally trust this ski.

Binders:           I use a normal racing binding. The DIN setting goes up to 16 and I set them on 14. They are good and that is enough. I mount them on the normal mounting position. If the ski is built the right way the tips don’t dive like they did many years ago. No need to mount them further back.

Kicks:               I ski on a Nordica Jah Love boot (130 flex) with a racing calf (150 flex). I like the hard calf for the landings. They give me more stability.

Colors:             I am wearing a bright green suit or a bright blue suit. My sponsor is Frencys and they made this line especially for me. I love to wear one-piece suites. But this season I will wear two pieces that you can zip together. I love that feature. 

Gloves:            LEVEL gloves! Yes!!! 

Vision:             Fix from Scott, love it! Especially the light-sensitive Class 1 lens!

 

 

Helmet:           Scott Roam in blue.

 

 

 

 

Pack:               Scott Air 25 in classical black. [During contests all riders wear transceivers and carry shovel and probe]. 

 

 

 

 

Poles:             Scott Team Issue in blue, 115cm.
