That process refers to renting ski gear for the entire season. That can save you money if you’re going to ski often during the season because long-term rentals are cheaper than renting at the full price every day. In addition, it’s also cheaper than buying your own equipment. Long-term rentals are a good option for a single season who doesn’t want to purchase their own equipment. They are also good options for children who are part of a ski program or school that has them out on the mountain quite a bit.
Our Ski & Snowboard Services;
Skis Just like a car requires “dealer prep” to correct those little issues with vehicles just off the assembly line, skis also require some level of “dealer prep” specific to the skier. The more often you ski, the more often service is advised. Your skis or snowboard’s edges need to be clean and sharp, so your turns are efficient and easy as you shred down the mountain. If you notice any sort of rust, we recommend getting your skis or snowboard serviced as soon as possible to prevent buildup. We offer comprehensive options to help you keep your snow equipment in excellent working condition. When you bring your equipment to us, we’ll examine your edges and base structure and provide you with a free estimate of recommended work. We strive to complete your ski service quickly and accurately so that you can get back to the slopes with gear that is tuned to perform exceptionally in your preferred conditions.
Please remember; The ski factory recommends only having your bindings adjusted by a certified professional at your local ski shop. Bindings Do Not Come Mounted to Skis – Always have a certified binding technician mount and adjust your bindings.
A last season of shredding has likely left your ski and snowboard bases looking rough—either dehydrated, scarred, or both—and your edges may show wear and tear in the form of burrs, dull edges, or rust patches. While most skiers tend to wait to take care of these issues until the start of the next season, best practice is to address maintenance issues before you store your skis in basement all summer, where fluctuating temperatures can cause further damage.
WE HAVE NEW MONTANA – SWITZERLAND SKI TUNING MACHINE – THE WORLD OF EXCELLENCE … click the red click to see
This machine offers the finest in race tunes with new state-of-the-art bottom structuring patterns. Ski & Snowboard – MONTANA CRYSTAL Ski TUNING Machine. With the unique MONTANA High-Tech Tuning (HTT) system, the steel edges on the base side are tuned in a lightly hanging form at an angle of approx. 0.5°- 0.8° and finely polished. The specially developed tuning stones are set at a precisely defined angle with the dressing tool. This machine offers the finest in race tunes with new state-of-the-art bottom structuring patterns. With this special process, the skis are more strongly tuned in the wider areas, i.e. at the tips and tails, so that the edges hang more noticeably. In the bindings area, the edges are ground to be less hanging. In this way, the edge angle varies over the entire length of the ski but is optimally aligned with the width of the ski. Through Radial Tuning, the skis and snowboards are noticeably easier to turn and the edge grip under the bindings is improved considerably. The skier/boarder can interrupt a started curve at high speed without the worry of falling.
This technology is only available from MONTANA. With the PRO technology, the harmonious movement of the grinding stone follows the contour of the ski shape during the grinding process: the ski slides over the stone in the same way as it slides over the snow when skiing.

How do I store my ski & snowboard equipment at home?
Always store your skis in a dry area indoors. Do NOT store in a summer garage, or ski bag for extended periods of time—as a ski bag with leftover moisture can rust your ski’s edges. Make sure your ski boots are always clasped and locked when stored away, as unbuckled ski boots can lose their shape. After a day on the slopes, dry your ski boots’ liners to prevent a poor smell and to extend the life of the material. We recommend storing boards on a carpeted surface in the corner of a temperature-controlled room, in a closet, or underneath a bed. Do NOT store in a bag for extended periods of time, as a bag with leftover moisture can rust your board’s edges. After a day on the slopes, dry your snowboard boots’ liners to prevent a poor smell and to extend the life of the material

NEW German Engineered Step-In Snowboard Binding. Progressive design. Uncompromising performance.
CLEW® step-in snowboard bindings are fast and easy to use. They give you an outstanding riding experience and free choice of boots. You can buy in our store
Move over Burton, we got a new player in the step-in binding space and they’re German. Say gotten tag to Clew Step-In Bindings. The patented system is compatible with any boots/board combo and look easy enough to operate.
Clew offers us a brand new system of snowboard binding. It looks just like a traditional binding, but it turns out it is made of two parts: the baseplate + toe strap part and the high back + ankle strap part. After getting in a first time, you can get in and off in a matter of seconds, without using the straps. Thanks to a system that works via a lever at the back of the high back, the latter along with the ankle strap can be detached from the rest, while remaining sturdily attached to your boot. You can walk, get on the chair lift, or send a one footed jib trick, then quickly get back in simply by clicking the chassis in the binding. The main advantage of this system is that it can be used with any traditional snowboard boot and can be mounted on any insert standard 2×4, 4×4 and The Channel.

The CLEW founders describe their motivation to develop a new type of step-in binding as follows: “Buckle on and out 40 times a day? Two times should be enough […] We wanted to save ourselves the trouble of buckling and unbuckling after every lift ride, while still not giving up the unsurpassed riding experience of a buckle binding. Until then, there was no snowboard step-in binding on the market that satisfied us”. We have tested for you how close they’ve reached their goal.
This model will satisfy a wide range of snowboarders from the intermediate/advanced level who want a versatile binding to shred, yet that remains playful and above all, ultra-practical to use.
The CLEW Step-In snowboard binding works with every boot and board and is compatible with all current systems, including 4×4, Channel, and 3D®.”
We offer a variety of glove and mitten styles to satisfy any skier or snowboarder.
HAND OUT GLOVES
Nobody enjoys taking their ski gloves off for any reason. Not only do your fingers get numb, but taking gloves on and off is just a pain, especially if you prefer under-the-cuff gloves.
Hand Out Gloves are in a category all their own. They’re leather, waterproof, breathable gloves that can be easily zipped open so you can do things like take a pic or tie a fishing line while keeping your hands warm.
Aside from the clever zipper, they’re also durable gloves made to last. They’re made from leather and they have waterproof, breathable Hipora linings.

HOW TO I PREPARE MY SKIS FOR THE SUMMER BREAK?
Before you put away your skis for their well-earned break, it’s important that you clean them thoroughly. That means: Remove all dirt and debris and old wax with a wax remover, and be certain that your skis are completely dried with a microfiber cloth. Moisture is poison for edges.
HOW DO I OVER-SUMMER MY SKIS CORRECTLY?
Along with pre-waxing, take to heart the following tips for summer storage: Store your skis dry, clean and at a consistent room temperature (for example, in the basement. Below is a list of tuning procedures that can and will adjust a ski’s performance – new or used – specifically to a skier’s ability level and style. Some of this work should and can only be performed by a trained technician at a ski specialty shop having the knowledge and skill to effectively operate the most sophisticated (and very expensive!) professional tuning machinery available today. There are two timing phases of significance when it comes to the tuning of alpine skis: preseason and in-season.
Preseason: Service work that should be performed by a trained technician at an alpine ski specialty shop at the start of every season:
Have your boot/binding compatibility inspected you start your season. This is a must if you’ve changed anything in your system—boots, bindings or skis.
Swix is one of the most used wax lines in World Cup competitions. Swix has completely redesigned its ski wax line. They provide an optimal balance of water repellency, abrasion resistance, base penetration, resistance to dirt, and anti-static properties. The simplest method is to buy some of the Swix Easy Glide liquid wax and use the included applicator to smooth it over the entire length of your ski base, including the wax less pattern. Let the wax set for 15 minutes or so, then hit the trails.
