What is bigfoot skiing?

Bigfoot skiing is a snow sport that uses compact, wide skis known as bigfoot skis. These shorter ski blades are designed for agility, tricks, and easy manoeuvrability, making them popular with beginners and playful skiers alike. Their distinctive shape provides greater control on the slopes, offering a fun twist on traditional skiing.

Do I need travel insurance for bigfoot skiing?
