What they cover here

Alpine skis, cross-country sets, bindings, boots, climbing skins, a ski bag, a lock and — unexpectedly — a street hockey stick.

Where their listings pull ahead

Numbers, consistently. The alpine ski gives three widths, a radius at a named length, an ability band and a binding with its DIN range printed. The junior binding publishes a full Z-DIN range and names both sole standards it accepts, which nothing else on that shelf does. The climbing skin goes down to the 12 kg rating of the band that holds the tail. The cross-country set prints the weight band its length was chosen for.

Where they slip

The junior boot states its flex twice, and differently, in the same listing — on the number the boot is sold by. Thoroughness is not the same as agreement with yourself.
