Note: These are general ski recommendations based in part on current USSA and FIS requirements. The intent of this sizing guide is to assure athletes are on the correct size/radius of equipment specific to their age and the level of
competition they plan on participating in.
Athletes who only intend on competing in local and Divisional USSA events should follow the Local - Divisional recommendations. Athletes who intend on competing in both Divisional and Regional events should follow the Regional recommendations. Athletes who intend on competing in any FIS event (International Children's event, Regional, National or International FIS) in the current or future seasons should follow the FIS guidelines. The best sizing recommendation will always be that of the athlete's coach - the person most familiar with his/her skiing skiing. Athletes who choose to use or purchase equipment outside of these recommendations should only due so after consulting with his/her Head Coach. Athletes who use equipment that falls outside of the current USSA or FIS rules may be disqualified and/or not allowed to start at an event.

Boot Flex RecommendationsNote: These are general recommendations based
strictly on an athlete's weight. If an athlete is a very aggressive skier and or tall for their age they may want to go with a slightly stiffer boot for more support. Remember you can always make a boot softer (reduce rating by 10-15) by removing screws and/or cutting the shell but it almost impossible to make a boot stiffer. Buying boots is a balance between comfort and performance. A boot that is too big may feel very comfortable initially but it will not allow the athlete to perform to their best and/or learn new skills as easily.
Ski Pole Length RecommendationsNote: These are general recommendations based strictly on an
athlete's overall height. It does not take into account if an athlete has disproportinatly long legs or short torso. Remember you can always make a pole shorter by cutting it down but it is impossible to make a pole longer. When sizing poles keep in mind that an athlete will be standing on skis/lifters and boots.
Poles that are too short will hinder an athletes performance and ability to make an effective pole plant/SL block.
