In this section I am going to be giving you a run through on the generic recreational ski. This is going to be more of your beginner's style ski, you're going to be able to find this type of ski in your typical rental shop. And as you notice here, the bindings and everything is already on the ski, you don't have to worry about picking out all your stuff, it's going to be for your first time skiing. You're definitely going to want to try out a few different pieces of equipment to learn what size you like, what shape you like, and everything that goes along with it. So when you get up to the rental shop, everyone who works there will be able to help you out, you fill out all the information and from your skill level they'll give you a specific ski, and it's going to be able to make it, so instead of worrying about purchasing all the stuff for your first time, when you don't really know exactly what you need, like I said you'll be able to test out a few different things. See what you like and see what you have more fun with. And this is pretty much the generic recreational ski, like I said, that you would fin in your typical rental shop.
