Brand
Wide range, thin listings
Alpine skis, ski boots, poles, snowboard bindings, snowboard boots, snowboards and a touring ski.
Breadth, and one good exception: the pole names its alloy — 5083 — and its 50 mm basket diameter in the same listing, which nothing else on that shelf manages.
Almost everywhere else the numbers are absent or hidden. The women’s alpine set publishes only the brake width of its binding. The men’s boot is sold on four benefit sentences with one number hidden inside the size code. The snowboard is described in five sentences and measured in none. The snowboard binding gives a flex index of 3 with no scale beside it. And the touring ski — the dearest ski on this site — is sold flat, with no binding, which makes its real cost higher than the page shows.
Reverse camber all-mountain board, described as a first board
A beginner board described in five sentences and measured in none — sold explicitly as an affordable way into the sport.
Best for: A first board bought on price, by somebody who will get the length from the seller
≈ £292 / €242
158 cm women’s set with Joy 9 GW SLR, brake 85 mm
A women’s set at 158 cm whose only published specification is the brake width of the binding — which is, at least, the figure a replacement would need.
Best for: A skier replacing a known pair, who wants the set mounted and ready
≈ €341
163 cm sold flat — no binding — level stated as expert
The dearest ski on the shelf and the only one sold without a binding, which makes its real cost higher than the page suggests.
Best for: An experienced tourer who already owns the binding and wants a light ski under it
≈ $799 / €745
Strap binding, flex index 3, EVA pads, tool-free adjustment
A soft strap binding that describes four components properly and then gives a flex number with no scale.
Best for: A rider who wants a soft, forgiving strap binding and will set it up themselves
≈ $170 / £207 / €152
BOA Coiler dial, flexible cuff, size 270
A dial-closed boot sold on comfort, with a size written the way ski boots write it.

5083 aluminium, 50 mm racing basket, star tip, automatic strap

Men’s boot, size 275, comfort liner, flex in the model name
A beginner’s boot sold on four sentences of benefit and one number hidden in the size.

≈ €168
The live figure beside a product went and asked the shop for it the moment this page opened; any amount written into the text has not moved since the sentence was drafted, and it is the first of the two that counts.
