Are skis included? What type do I need?
No, ski equipment is not included. There are a variety of hire equipment retailers in Queenstown and Wanaka.
Wide-body powder skis or all-mountain skis are the preferred choice for your heli-ski trip. This style of ski allows you to handle a wide range of snow conditions, faster, easier and with more stability. All of the guides use these and they’re wonderful for those wanting to go longer and harder in more advanced terrain.
