The ideal racing ski clothing for successful ski competitors
If you want to take part in skiing competitions, you not only need FIS racing skis and equipment specially designed for alpine racing skiing, such as ski boots, bindings and ski poles, but also professional clothing that is adapted to the competition conditions and guidelines. In contrast to alpine recreational sports, racing ski clothing differs in terms of the materials used and the design in order to not only provide the best possible protection against the cold, but also to minimise air resistance and thus achieve maximum speed when skiing downhill. Discover highly functional racing clothing such as racing suits and racing gloves in our XSPO Ski Online Shop and start your next ski race perfectly equipped!
Racing ski clothing for professional competitions combines maximum speed with a high level of comfort
While the main focus of normal Skibekleidung is on protection from the cold, Skibekleidung is designed for racing to ensure optimum protection from the cold, high breathability and sufficient aerodynamics to achieve maximum speed on the piste during the competition. In contrast to recreational sports, highly functional and tight-fitting racing suits are therefore worn in professional ski races instead of the usual Skibekleidung in several layers, which are an essential component of optimum racing equipment and downhill performance. Special racing ski clothing such as skin-tight racing suits and racing gloves therefore have properties specially adapted to the competition conditions and differ from ordinary Skibekleidung in terms of the material and design used. In our XSPO Ski Online Shop you will find a large selection of clothing, gloves and accessories that have been specially developed for alpine racing.
The highly functional, close-fitting racing suits, which cling to the skier's body like a second skin, are mostly made from synthetic, elastic yet tear-resistant materials. This ensures a high level of comfort and maximum freedom of movement without constricting the racer or being uncomfortable against the skin. Breathable materials are also used in the manufacture of ski suits to ensure ideal temperature regulation during the competition. To ensure that all ski racers are exposed to the same conditions during competitions, racing suits for professional ski races must fulfil certain criteria. For example, the air permeability of a competition suit is specified. Not only the materials used, but also the design of the racing suits are specially designed for competition conditions, with aerodynamics playing a particularly important role. In order to minimise air resistance, ski suits are designed to be streamlined and close-fitting in order to minimise air resistance on the descent and achieve maximum speed and acceleration. Although most racing suits have a brushed inner surface, which keeps the racer's body warm even at low temperatures, it is advisable to always have a warming ski jacket to hand to provide the best possible protection from wind and weather.
