Cold Weather Recommendations

Cold Recommendations for Safe Racing:

Wear competition glasses or goggles. Corneal frostbite can cause permanent vision loss.
Cover up exposed flesh. Absolutely cover the ears as frostbite is extremely common here.
Buffs are a great way to cover necks and exposed skin. Balaclavas can lend another layer of protection
Remove exposed metal jewelry. Metal freezes faster than skin and then freezes surrounding
tissue.
Wear windscreen briefs for male genitalia.
Frostbite on genitals should obviously be avoided.
Use moleskin cut-outs on cheeks to prevent frostbite. Vaseline is used by some skiers, but is not proven to reduce risk.
Help other skiers by pointing out areas of whiteness that may suggest frostnip or frostbite.
Stay hydrated and fueled
Ensure ski boots and poles straps are not too tight as this can restrict blood flow.
Seek shelter and medical attention should you get frostbite.
Avoid refreezing frostbite once it occurs, as this makes the injury significantly worse.
