Why Freestyle Skiers Are Turning to CORESHORTS Ahead of the Winter Olympics

As the Winter Olympics approach, the world’s best freestyle skiers are pushing harder, jumping higher, and training longer than ever. With the intense demands of moguls, aerials, big air, and halfpipe, one piece of performance gear is becoming essential on the mountain: CORESHORTS®, the compression short engineered specifically for hip stability, injury prevention, and peak power output.

Whether you’re an elite athlete or a weekend skier, CORESHORTS is quickly becoming one of the most talked-about innovations in winter sports performance gear.


The Demands of Freestyle Skiing: Why Stability Is Everything

Freestyle skiing places extreme stress on the hip–pelvis complex. Athletes face:

  • Hard, high-impact landings

  • Rapid direction changes on variable snow

  • Explosive rotations on jumps and in the air

  • Repetitive strain on hamstrings, groin, and hip flexors

These forces make freestyle skiing one of the highest-risk sports for groin strains, hip instability, hamstring overload, and core compensation injuries. That’s why Olympic-level skiers are searching for gear that doesn’t just support performance—but helps prevent injury before it happens.


What Makes CORESHORTS Different? The X-Band Technology Explained

At the core of CORESHORTS® is our patented "X" Activation System, a biomechanically engineered design that mimics the body’s natural muscle slings to reinforce the pelvis and hips.

This isn’t traditional compression.
This is cross-stabilization engineered for athletes who rely on explosive, multi-directional power.

How the X-Band Supports Freestyle Skiers

CORESHORTS help skiers:

  • Increase hip and pelvic stability during landings

  • Reduce groin strain and hamstring stress during absorption

  • Maintain rotational control for spins, corks, and flips

  • Improve movement efficiency for faster recovery and reduced fatigue

  • Protect the kinetic chain during high-impact competition runs

For freestyle skiers training for the Winter Olympics, stability and injury prevention are major performance advantages.


Why Olympic Skiers Are Wearing CORESHORTS This Season

With athletes performing more complex tricks and pushing amplitude further each year, the risk of soft-tissue injuries has never been higher. That’s why CORESHORTS are becoming a staple layer for elite winter athletes.

Skiers report benefits such as:

  • “Locked-in” hip control

  • More confident landings on moguls, jumps, and rails

  • Reduced soreness during multi-day training blocks

  • Greater power transfer in every turn and transition

  • Improved consistency in technical trick execution

When medals are decided by tenths of a second or a cleaner landing, gear that stabilizes the foundation matters.


Perfect Under Layer for Cold Weather Ski Training

CORESHORTS® are designed to perform in cold winter environments, making them ideal for:

  • Mogul training

  • Aerial skiing

  • Slopestyle sessions

  • Backcountry jumps

  • Halfpipe progression

  • On-snow conditioning

Moisture-wicking fabric and durable compression maintain structure in low temperatures, ensuring consistent support no matter the weather.


Freestyle Skiing Injury Prevention Starts with the Hips

Search interest in “injury prevention for skiing” and “best gear for winter sports performance” skyrockets every Olympic year—and for good reason. Most common skiing injuries begin with poor pelvic control or overworked soft tissue. CORESHORTS targets the exact areas that need reinforcement.

By stabilizing the hips and core, skiers experience:

  • Fewer pulls and strains

  • More balanced landings

  • Better kinetic-chain alignment

  • Improved power output in every phase of the run

In a sport where athletes repeat impact stress thousands of times throughout the season, this support is game-changing.


Trusted by Athletes. Proven by Performance. Ready for the Olympics.

As we head into the next Winter Olympic Games, more freestyle skiers are adding CORESHORTS to their daily training gear—not just for performance, but for longevity, recovery, and confidence.

Whether you’re an aspiring Olympian, a competitive skier, or someone who wants to ski harder with fewer injuries, CORESHORTS delivers world-class technology used by the best.

Train with the same technology helping athletes land the biggest moments of their career.
