Event-specific limits

Ski length, sidecut radius, waist width and assembled-system weight depend on discipline and race level. Junior and Masters exceptions mean there is no universal racing-ski size.

Concrete examples

The standard adult slalom minimum length is 155 cm for women and 165 cm for men. The equipment table also sets a 30 m minimum radius for senior giant-slalom skis.
