USA Skimo will employ one exception to the ISMF regulations for the 2024/2025 season:
Ski brakes are the preferred system for preventing a potential runaway ski. In lieu of ski brakes, leashes will be allowed. If leashes are used, they MUST be in use everywhere except in sections of the course marked specifically for travel on-foot.
If you are purchasing new equipment this year, think ahead for these future requirements.
