Pre-Season Check Testing Ice Safety Gear Before First Frost

Pre-Season Check: Testing Ice Safety Gear Before First Frost

Ah, the first frost of the season has finally arrived, and you’re looking at that pile of winter gear in your garage like, “Okay, buddy, where did I put the snow shovel” If you’re planning on braving the cold this winter—whether you’re hitting the slopes, exploring the Arctic tundras, or just trying not to freeze to death—then it’s time to do a little pre-season check on your ice safety gear. Because, let’s face it, no one wants to be the hero who starts their day by testing if their gloves actually keep hands warm.

1. Check Your Gloves: The Hands-on Guide

No gear is more crucial than your gloves. Without them, you’re basically a walking Popsicle. Start by making some weird-handed gesture (minus the freezing part) and see if your fingers can move freely. If there’s any restriction, it’s time for a upgrade. Also, check for any wears or tears. One thing to note: if your gloves smell like last season’s intentions, it’s probably time to toss ’em.

2. Bend, Stretch, and Squat for Your Skis or Snowboard

Nothing says “I’m ready for winter” like doing a pre-season squat while holding your skis like they’re your kids (you don’t have kids, but still). Get out there and bend, stretch, and twist as if you’re trying to imitate a yoga pose, because your body is going to be doing a lot more of that once winter hits.

3. Skincare for the Face and Extremities

Winter winds can be as brutal as a middle school bullies. Protect your skin before it’s too late. Slapping on some sunscreen might feel like a drag, but trust us, your face will thank you. Plus, no one wants to look like a wanderer from the Bering Sea after one day on the slopes.

4. Test the Waters: Because You Might Drown in It

If your adventure of choice involves water (hello, ice fishing!), make sure your waterproof gear is up to the task. Stick your phone in a waterproof pouch and pretend you’re airing out issues (get it, “waterproof” and “airing out” Classic pun, but it’s got a ring to it).

5. The Art of packing like a Pro (Minus the Rumors of You Being a Pro)

Once you’ve got your gear in order, it’s time to pack like you’re the real-life MacGyver—but without the macgyvering. Use a checklist, because if you’re anything like us, you’ll forget your own jacket. And don’t even get us started on the whole “layers” thing.
