The innovation machine in the ski industry never stops - even in skiing. Ski manufacturers are constantly inventing new technologies, building prototypes, and testing them extensively. Once everyone is convinced, these innovations are first introduced in racing and, after a few years, make their way into online shops, ski walls, and the shelves of ski stores.
This process brings a wide range of new or redesigned ski and ski boot models to the market every year. Even for us, it’s sometimes hard to keep track: Which innovations are out there? Which new products are truly groundbreaking, and which are just old models in a fresh design?
To help you stay on top of things, we’ve put together some highlights that we believe bring something genuinely new to the slopes—true innovations or at least significant improvements to well-known concepts.
