EQUIPMENT

BEFORE YOU ARRIVE AT THE PERISHER CROSS COUNTRY CENTRE YOU WILL NEED TO ORGANIZE SOME EQUIPMENT.

XC skis and boots are light weight and comfortable. You can choose to use a super fast track ski, or light to heavy touring options.  XC ski equipment can be hired from a number of local businesses (link to suppliers). Look for the heading "RETAIL/ HIRE/ LESSONS/ SERVICES". The experts at these businesses will be able to guide you on what ski equipment will be right for you.

The Interschools Cross Country Skiing Information Guide, produced by NSWXC, is a good place to start for basic descriptions of XC equipment and other useful information.
