Poster: A snowHead
|
Hello I am new to the ski/snowboard sport. I used my friend's equipment to go snowboarding a week ago and I was very impressed with it. I am planning to buy some basic equipment on a budget for me and my girlfriend and rent some ski/boots to visit the ski center once more next month. I found a Nevica ski jacket and pants combo with 10.000 waterproof/breathability, at 85 euro total, at a very well known sports e shop. Are those clothes good enough for a start or should I consider buy something more expensive?

For a start - yes :: Also keep an eye on Lild/Aldi for other items (base layers/socks etc)

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

The only thing that troubles me is if they are waterproof enough because I tend to hit the snow quite often .

Padded shorts are handy if you fall on your back bottom a lot...
I believe Nevica are a brand that is now owned by that E-Retailer. Its worth checking what other brands they may have in stock. I have seen Nike, ONeil, Salomon go for very low prices also.
