Gear

In the snow, you need a face mask, gloves, shirt, sweater, thin well-sealed jacket, and no, I'm going to go on and on.

The whole point is not to get cold when you're skiing.

And the gear you actually need : skis, ski boots, a helmet a pair of goggles to protect your eyes , poles (optional) and weights (optional).

All the gear is really just to keep you safe.
