Description

Here is the complete translation in clear, professional English:

HEAD Race Short: Performance and Protection

The essential accessory for training and competition warm-ups.

This short is designed to offer complete freedom of movement while providing reliable protection against wind, snow, and the severe cold of mountain peaks.

Technical Features

  • Durable Construction: Made from stretch softshell featuring an IAM 20/20 membrane (20,000 mm waterproofness / 20,000 g/m²/24h breathability), creating an optimal barrier against the elements.

  • Full-Length Side Zips: Equipped with full-length lateral zippers. This allows you to strip off the shorts in seconds right before your race start, without needing to take off your ski boots.

  • Adjustable Waistband: A wide elastic waistband with a Velcro adjustment system ensures a precise fit, even over a thick race suit.

  • Lateral Protection: Features light padding or reinforcements on the hips to absorb potential impacts from slalom gates.

Practical Details

Feature Specifications
Material Softshell with a light fleece lining
Fit Ergonomic (pre-shaped for speed tuck position)
Design Iconic HEAD "Worldcup Rebels" logo
Sizing Available in Junior and Adult sizes

Why Use It?

"The Race Short maintains optimal muscle temperature. A warm muscle is more responsive and less prone to injury during explosive efforts like a Slalom or Giant Slalom start."

  • Comfort: Anti-slip silicone leg grippers prevent the shorts from riding up during movement.

  • Versatility: Also ideal for free skiing in spring weather, when a race suit alone is too light but full ski pants are too warm.

Sizing Advice

  1. Waist Measurement: Measure around the narrowest part of your waist (just above the belly button).

  2. Hip Measurement: Measure around the widest part of your hips. This is the most critical measurement, as the shorts must not restrict your range of motion in a speed tuck position.

  3. Between Sizes? If you plan to wear bulky hip padding underneath your race suit, it is generally recommended to size up.

  4. Adjustability: Keep in mind that the waistband is adjustable via Velcro straps, allowing you to fine-tune the fit if you fall between sizes.
