If your ski or snowboard gear is even a few years old, you can bet there’s new technology out there that will help make good days on the snow even better. However you like to play in the snow, there are important things to consider: What is your skill level? What region do you ski or ride in the most? Powder or groomed? Do you venture out in the backcountry? Your answers to these questions will narrow the search to the best category for gear and allow you to take advantage of all the modern-day advances in technology. Regardless of your preferred playground, you will absolutely benefit from having the right tools for the job.
