Having the right skiing and snowboarding gear can be a deciding factor between a comfortable day of riding or a painful, frustrating ordeal. When choosing the best skiing and snowboarding gear, finding the best selling gear is generally a safe way to go. The best selling skiing and snowboarding gear is generally more popular because of its link to well-known brands trusted for quality.

Burton Women's Feather Snowboard

Burton's Women's Feather snowboard is Altrec.com's best selling snowboard. Designed as an entry-level women's snowboard, the Feather features a mix of lightweight and dense woods distributed throughout the core to provide support while keeping the board lightweight, and Burton's Lightspeed Vision base gives a speedy ride.

Burton Men's Moto Snowboard Boots

Listed as Altrec.com's most popular snowboarding boot, Burton's men's Moto Snowboard Boots sport heat-moldable liners for a custom fit, a shock-absorbing EVA midsole, and the Speed Zone Express Lacing System, allowing wearers to tighten and fasten their boots with an upward pull. The Motos also feature interior lacing to provide a precision liner fit, as well as ice-spiked soles for traction when not boarding.

Nordica Men's Enforcer Flat Skis

Designed for powder, Altrec.com's best selling skis, Nordica's men's Enforcer flat skis, can handle turns on groomed trails as well. The Enforcer's sidecut digs into hard snow, allowing consistent turning without skidding. In addition, the Enforcer features a wood core reinforced with titanium laminate, which provides solid float in deep power.

Nordica Men's Hot Rod 105 Ski Boots

Altrec's best selling ski boot, Nordica's Hot Rod 105 ski boots are stiff enough to provide solid power transfer, but feature softer plastic in comfort areas to give comfort for long days on the mountain. The all-mountain boots also sport the Full Shock Eraser rear spoiler to absorb vibration when riding at high speeds.

Dakine Heli Pro Snow Pack

The best selling ski and snowboarding pack on Amazon.com, Dakine's Heli Pro Snow Pack, features 20 liters of storage space, a vertical snowboard carry, diagonal ski carry, and hydration bladder compatibility. The Heli Pro also sports a fleece-lined goggle pocket, a snow tool pocket for adjustments on the mountain, as well as sternum and waist straps for stability.

One of the best selling snow goggles on Amazon.com, Bolle's Shark Goggle, features double polycarbonate lenses, coated to protect against fogging and scratching.
