Frequently Asked Questions
Does this suit run true to size for competitive youth racers?
Spyder sizes this suit for an anatomically contoured race fit, which means it's cut closer than a casual ski jacket. If your racer is between sizes or has a longer torso, sizing up is advisable to maintain full range of motion through gates.
What weather conditions does the GORE-TEX laminate handle?
The GORE-TEX laminate provides waterproof and windproof protection appropriate for alpine race conditions — hard-packed groomed courses in cold, wet, or variable conditions. It is not designed for deep powder immersion or extended exposure to heavy precipitation at rest.
How does the PFCec-free DWR treatment hold up after repeated race days?
DWR (Durable Water Repellency) treatments refresh with low-heat tumble drying after washing. The PFCec-free formulation meets current environmental standards. With proper care — gentle wash, tumble dry low — DWR performance is maintained for a full race season.
Are the knee pads removable or integrated?
The knee pads are strategically placed and integrated into the suit's construction as a built-in protection feature, not removable inserts. They are positioned for GS racing impact zones.
What insulation does the suit use, and is it warm enough for race-morning temperatures?
The suit uses both PrimaLoft Gold down blend (70/30, jacket body) and PrimaLoft Gold synthetic (60g, additional panels). The combination provides meaningful warmth for race-morning staging in cold conditions while remaining compressible enough to maintain freedom of movement.
