However, there is a wide variety of boards, so you will have to choose between the following ones <strong>according to activity<\/strong> that you usually practice:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>If you usually do <strong>rapid promotions <\/strong>it is recommended that you have some <strong>light skis <\/strong>so that you don't accumulate too much fatigue. The most common sizes of this type of skis are the following: 65 to 75 millimetres of skate, 95 to 110 millimetres of tip, 79 to 110 mm of tail.\t<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>If you are looking for more enjoyment from the <strong>descents <\/strong>than for ascents, you will need a more versatile ski. Thus, the\t<strong>stability and buoyancy <\/strong>on snow will be increased. If you are looking for a multi-purpose ski, the width of the skid should be between 70 and 95 millimetres. Freeride models are 95 to 120 millimetres wide.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In the following article we explain <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/ski-touring-boards\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"In the following article we explain how to choose your ski touring boards (opens in a new tab).\">how to choose ski touring boards<\/a><\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pieles_de_foca\"><\/span>Sealskins<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Seal skins are skins that are placed on the soles of skis so that they only slide upwards. This makes the ascent considerably easier. You can find three types of skins:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Synthetic hair<\/strong>are the most versatile skins and have a very good grip on hard snow.

There are various types of bindings that are suitable for different activities. On the one hand, there are the competition bindings, an example of which are the ones available in the <strong>Dynafit brand<\/strong>. They are very light, but the price is usually quite high. On the other hand, there are bindings that are more versatile. As a general rule, these bindings make it possible to pivot the foot to move forward on the skis. In addition, they are equipped with a heel lock to facilitate calf rest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Botas\"><\/span>Boots<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Fijaciones-para-esqu\u00ed-de-traves\u00eda_by-Simon-Pixabay_800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Ski touring bindings \/ Photo: Simon (Pixabay)\" class=\"wp-image-11958\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Fijaciones-para-esqu\u00ed-de-traves\u00eda_by-Simon-Pixabay_800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Fijaciones-para-esqu\u00ed-de-traves\u00eda_by-Simon-Pixabay_800x600-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Fijaciones-para-esqu\u00ed-de-traves\u00eda_by-Simon-Pixabay_800x600-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Fijaciones-para-esqu\u00ed-de-traves\u00eda_by-Simon-Pixabay_800x600-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Ski touring boots and bindings \/ Photo: Simon (Pixabay)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There are four characteristics that differentiate ski mountaineering boots from alpine ski boots:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>They are\t<strong>lighter<\/strong>.
