Corduroy


The ribbed pattern left on the surface of a freshly groomed piste, resembling the corduroy fabric of the same name. It offers ideal grip and a smooth glide on the first descents of the morning, before the passage of skiers erases it. Knowledgeable skiers seek out these pristine pistes as soon as the lifts open. Mountain palaces help their guests secure privileged early access to this perfect corduroy.
