A ski podcast hosted by Dom Killinger publisher InTheSnow and Rob Stewart and owner Ski Press.

In this episode, Rob Stewart, our regular Podcast Host, is joined by British Olympian Emily Sarsfield to look at the do's and don'ts for buying your first pair of skis .

Rob talks about your ability level, and being honest about it and making sure you visit a store rather than just buy online.

Are you looking for a piste ski, an all mountain ski or freeride skis?  Or maybe something racier?

For piste skis they recommend the likes of the Elan Wingman 88 for a review of this ski, visit here or the Atomic Cloud 9 which is a women's ski.

For a more off piste ski, the Salomon QST 99 (99 under foot) or for a review see here and for a womens specific freeride ski, the Black Crows Captis Birdie also reviewed here.

For an all mountain ski, the Volkl Kendo is reviewed here or for women the Blizzard Black Pearl are also great options.

So:
> Know your ability 
> Know what type of skier you are 
> Think about what type of ski you would like
> Visit a decent ski shop
> It's always best to buy in store rather than online.
