Installation & Maintenance
Is the installation of the Bindings included?
Bindings s are installed free of charge with any pair of skis purchased at the same time as Bindings s on zagskis.com
What information do I need to provide for the setup of my Bindings ?
Your skiing ability, age, height, weight, and the shell length of your boot in millimeters (the Mondopoint size or standard shoe size is not precise enough to ensure an optimal fit). This information is used to calculate the release value (DIN) of the Binding.
Can I buy just the skis and have them mounted somewhere else?
Yes. Proper installation is essential for both safety and efficiency: always have it done by a professional repair shop.
How often should you maintain your skis?
It all depends on how often you use it. Regular maintenance is essential. For more information, visit our dedicated page at https://www.zagskis.com/pages/instructions-de-montage-entretien
How do I care for my sealskins?
Let them dry at room temperature after each use, with the adhesive exposed to the air. Store them flat or hanging in a dry, temperate place. If they lose their adhesion, you can reapply adhesive.
Do you need a protective net to store ZAG skins?
No. Most skins on the market require a mesh between the adhesive sides; the adhesive on ZAG skins allows them to be folded directly, skin-to-skin, without a mesh.
How do I care for my Bindings ?
Depending on the model, as shown at Bindings , it is possible to lubricate and replace certain wear parts. Please contact your authorized service center to have these services performed.

PRODUCT Selection
What are the ZAG ski lines for the 2026–2027 season?
Four product lines. AROC and MATA for all-mountain. SLAP for all-mountain and freeride (SLAP 92, SLAP 100, SLAP 112). UBAC for Touring , and freerando (UBAC 89, 95, 102, 110).
How do you read the dimensions of a pair of skis, such as 129 × 100 × 115 mm?
These are the widths in millimeters at the tip, waist, and tail. The waist width largely determines the ski’s performance: below 90 mm, the focus is on grip on hard snow and lightness; above 100 mm, the focus is on float in deep snow.
What are camber and rocker?
Camber is the natural upward curve of a ski when it lies flat: it provides grip on hard snow and helps you regain speed in turns. Rocker is the opposite curve, at the tip and tail—the parts of the ski that don’t touch the snow when the ski is flat. It makes it easier to pivot, provides float in powder, and offers greater forgiveness on uneven snow.
What does Titanal contribute to a ski?
Titanal is an aluminum alloy that is incorporated as an insert or plate under the foot. It provides grip, stability at high speeds, and energy return when exiting turns. On the other hand, the ski is less playful and less forgiving at low speeds. The ZAG MATA Ti features a titanal plate on a Heavy Duty "
" construction.
What's the difference between all-mountain, freeride, and freerando?
All-mountain skiing stays connected to the resort: on-piste, off-piste, accessible backcountry, and
, typically with a waist width between 80 and 100 mm. Freeride skiing breaks away from this connection: unsecured natural terrain, a waist width of 100 mm or more, and pronounced rockers. Freerando adds skinning to the equation: wide but lightweight skis, mounted on an insert- Bindings .
Are there women's sizes available in the ZAG line?
The UBAC 89 and UBAC 95 are available in sizes labeled women's (W), unisex (W/M)
, and men's (M). The UBAC 102 and 110 are available in unisex sizes. The AROC and MATA Ti range from 153 to 185 cm, a range that suits both female and male body types.
Can I try out the skis before I buy them?
Yes, you can try out ZAG skis before buying them. There are several options:
You can check out our page dedicated to ski tests, which take place throughout the winter at various resorts. (I'll add the link later)

Safety
What safety equipment is required when venturing outside the marked area?
The avalanche safety kit—consisting of an avalanche transceiver, shovel, and probe—is mandatory as soon as you leave the designated safe area. Not just recommended—mandatory. Knowing how to use your avalanche transceiver is just as important as carrying it. Training sessions are organized at the start of each season by clubs and guides.
Is a helmet really necessary when riding off-piste?
Yes. The risks of impact differ from those on the trail: trees, rocks, and falls on steep slopes. ZAG offers the SEND MIPS for freeriding and the STEALTH 3NORM for Touring , and mountaineering.
Brand
Where are ZAG skis manufactured?
The skis are prototyped at the ZAG Lab in Chamonix and tested in the terrain surrounding the workshop. The process can be summed up in four words: Build – Test – Learn – Repeat. Production skis are manufactured at our partner factories in the Czech Republic, Slovenia, and Poland.
How long has ZAG been around?
ZAG has been designing skis in the Alps since 2002, the year of the BIG, followed by the GOLD in 2004. The SLAP was introduced in 2008, then the UBAC in 2012—the first wide, lightweight ski that marked the dawn of freetouring.
What is the ZAG Lab?
The ZAG Lab is the brand's prototyping workshop in Chamonix. Each model is designed, shaped, tested, refined, and then rebuilt there until form and feel become one.
Who manufactures FORGE Bindings ?
The FORGE[Tour] and FORGE[Pro] are developed and manufactured in Italy by ATK Bindings.
Shoes
Where can I find the size of my ski boots in millimeters?
This information is printed on the inside or outside of the heel of your shoe. It refers to the shell length in millimeters; do not confuse it with the shoe size or the Mondopoint size.
