Ski poles provide balance, assist with your turn-timing, improve your co-ordination and are a great way of maintaining speed along flat sections. They help keep you in an athletic and strong body position and are great for dragging along your snowboarding friend who will inevitably get stuck somewhere flat.

When choosing a ski boot, it’s essential to consider what type of skiing you are going to be doing and your ability level.

At HEAD we distinguish our skis between different segments of skiing as each has its own characteristic and style, and we want to ensure we deliver the best possible solution for each segment of skiing.

Here's our guide to finding the padel shoes that are right for you.
