Do you ski or snowboard with your children? If you head out on the slopes this year, make sure you and your children are dressed well and have the appropriate gear (as well as know the rules).
Before your kids venture out to the slopes, it’s essential for them to have the right gear and know how to use it.
You can also get equipment like a boot bag that will make your life easier but they aren’t essentials. Boot bags make it a lot easier to keep boots dry and safe, you can learn much more about the Salomon original boot bag by following that link.
Not only do they need skis, boots, and poles, they will also need warm clothing, protective eyewear and helmets intended specifically for skiing or snowboarding.
Sport Chek has you covered in every area needed to keep them warm and safe.
