JUNIOR SEASON RENTAL

Our season rentals are great for growing kids and first time skiers and snowboarders who want to try it out before getting their own equipment. Currently, our seasonal fleet is only for Junior sizes. We ensure the high-quality of our rentals by paying close attention to their condition. We put all of our season rentals through the shop for tuning, binding, safety checks, and wax.

*Please allow 1 week for tuning & setup after sizing. We have a large season rental fleet. As we get further into the season sizes do become limited and we may run out. Ask about our junior trade-in program.

DAILY RENTALS - ALL AGES

Our daily rentals are for all ages. Please make a rental reservation online before coming into the store. As with our season rentals, we are diligent about the care and quality of our skis and boards. All daily rental equipment goes through the shop for tuning, binding safety checks, and wax.
