Rule winter with ski and snowsports gear
Feel that chill in the air? With winter arriving, it’s time to get excited about the wealth of winter activities there is to do. From cross-country skiing to snowshoeing to downhill racing, there’s plenty to choose from if you happen to live by a snowy mountain. Having the right ski and snowsports gear is essential for making the most of your winter adventures, and MEC is your one-stop snow shop for everything you need. From brands like MEC Label, Patagonia, Rossignol, Salomon and more, you’ll be fully set for everything snow related.
Backcountry skiing
Backcountry skiing encompasses a variety of activities, including alpine touring, freeskiing, ski mountaineering, and randonnée (also known as skimo or rando racing). In essence, it means you're responsible for climbing up the terrain you plan to ski down, whether you're carving, floating, or racing. This human-powered ascent makes the descent all the more satisfying. It also means there are key factors to consider when you’re choosing backcountry skis, such as snow conditions, terrain and the weight of your set-up. Backcountry skiing requires more preparation than a typical day on the slopes. You'll need specialized gear, such as a waterproof-breathable jacket and pants, insulating mid-layers, warm gloves, and moisture-wicking ski socks. Don't forget goggles, a helmet, and a warm base layer to keep comfortable while gliding through deep powder. A dedicated ski backpack is essential for staying organized, offering a separate compartment for avalanche safety gear and ample space for extra layers, snacks, and other essentials.
Downhill skiing
Also called alpine skiing, downhill is what most people are familiar with, as it’s done at popular ski resorts with groomed runs. Selecting new downhill skis can seem daunting with all the different types available, especially if you're new to skiing or transitioning from powder to groomed trails. However, the process becomes much easier once you know what to focus on and how to narrow down your choices. You can learn how to choose downhill skis on our website.
Cross-country skiing
Cross-country skiing is your ticket to cruise through snowy landscapes, over rolling hills and across frozen lakes. If you’re ready to buy your first pair of Nordic skis, it’s important to know a few basics. Learn about how to choose cross-country skis on our website, and also make sure you’ve got the right layers for this type of winter activity.
