Explorer Cross-Country Skiing Boots

How do you select your cross-country skiing boots?

You must select your cross-country skiing boots based on your use of them.



It is a matter of choosing between performance in descent (i.e. support and rigidity) and comfort in ascent (i.e. low weight).



It is a question of balance.



For multi-purpose boots (freeride, freerando or even multi-purpose downhill), the 4 buckles offer greater support and precision.



Weight becomes very important when used in the mountains. The 2 buckles are therefore more suitable.

What is the Resort Touring

The Resort Touring is our definition of cross-country skiing in ski resorts.

Use the routes and circuits that are marked out by the ski resorts for going up the mountain and come back down comfortably using the groomed ski slopes.

This practice provides an introduction to cross-country skiing and an understanding of the basic techniques of the sport.

It is also useful for sportsmen and women who need a set training piste or route for improving without a problem.

What is Mountain Touring

The Mountain Touring is our definition of cross-country skiing in the mountains.

Go for it, create your climbing route far away from the ski resorts.

Go back down to where the snow looks better and the slope is less exposed to avalanche risks.

Authentic cross-country skiing.

Given the wild nature of the mountainous surroundings, you must have good technique, prepare your outings and have a good understanding of your avalanche safety equipment.

Do not go out by yourself.
