DISCOUNT SKI BOARD RENTAL PORTAGE WI. 608.745.1295Charlie Gerstung “” I came in on Saturday morning of a beautiful holiday weekend with my dad and my 7 and 8 year old daughters. It was the first time skiing for all three of them. Even though the shop was quite busy, everyone was friendly, extremely helpful and efficient. While I was trying on my boots, my daughters were struggling to get theirs on. A very nice young female employee noticed right away and came over and had them both in the right size in no time. Meanwhile, my dad’s EEE wide feet were making it difficult to find the right boot, but the boot guy was very patient as he made multiple exchanges until they found the right one. The place was hoping again at return time, but the employees were again very friendly and were really hustling to keep anyone from waiting. It was a pleasure saving money and getting such great service. Thank you!!

At Sunrise Ski Resort, what size should I get of the rental snowboard boots?

Tuesday, April 10th, 2012


Last time, I got a 9 (mens?) and I had heel lift, and I’m an 8.5 womens shoe size. I think I tried on the 8 and I couldn’t get my foot in all the way. I don’t remember exactly what the sizes there were numbered as, because one guy I knew was a 13 or something and he had to get a size 18 boot. I might not have been able to get my foot in the 8, because I have slightly high arches and a slightly wide foot. Should I try the 8 again and loosen up the laces some more next time I go?

Why did I have a hard time lifting my rental snowboard with one foot strapped in? I couldn’t lift entire board

Thursday, February 16th, 2012


So I took snowboarding lessons for the first time today. We practiced with one foot strapped. I had a really difficult time lifting the board. One side of the board was always dragging on the ground. Everyone else was able to lift their entire board off the ground when climbing. I am wondering if the board I had was too long. I’m 5 ft tall and the rental board I got was up to my nose standing up. I’d debating whether or not to give snowboarding lessons another try and I’d really like to know if my board was just too big for me, or if I was just not strong enough to be able to lift the entire board off the ground, even just an inch, in order to climb up a hill. Riding the board was fun and not too difficult but dragging the board back to a higher elevation each time really made me tired really fast. Thanks for your input!

What size all mountain freeride snowboard should I buy?

Tuesday, February 7th, 2012


I am 5′ 11″ wear a size 9 UK snowboard boot and I weigh around 15 stone (about 210 pounds). I learnt on a rental 154cm snowboard which I found very manageable but I don’t think this would be the size for me to buy and was thinking 157 or 158cm? I don’t want to go any bigger than necessary but don’t want it to be too small either.
