Research and Markets - Global Ski Equipment Market CAGR Growth of 1.19% by 2020 - Trends, Technologies & Opportunities Report 2016-2020 - Vendors: Newell Brands, Graf, Franklink Sports

DUBLIN, October 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Ski Equipment Market 2016-2020" report to their offering.

The global ski equipment market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 1.19% during the period 2016-2020.

According to the report, as the ski has more recreational players than the professional skiers, the rule of wearing protective gear like helmet is not compulsory in recreational sports. For example, in Canada, ski helmets lack mandatory Canadian safety rules.

The helmets used by the skiers in Canada aren't governed by any mandatory Canadian safety standards. However, there is a growth in number of helmets used by the skiers. In Canada, the usage of helmets increased from 30% in 2003 to 85% in 2015. Such growth in the helmet is a key driver for market growth.

Further, the report states that lack of snowfall during the winter is a major challenge for the ski equipment and the market as the sport entirely relies on the snow. Such lack of snow has reported across the globe. In 2015 in Japan, the lack of snowfall in Japan has led to many ski resorts closed.

In December, more than 60% of the big 54 big resorts in Hokkaido, one of the most prominent places for ski in Japan, cancelled their ski services due to lack of snowfall. Temperature in such prominent ski areas remained above 32°F during the December, which is the peak time for ski.
