Snowboarding Exchange

The ski and snowboard equipment rentals business, just like any other enterprise in Vail, has flourished alongside the resort’s boom.

Competition and the increasing demand for more services that would better suit Vail’s prestige as a top notch skiing destination has resulted in the ski rental business evolving into an all-encompassing full service facility that offer different packages for testing, renting, and selling equipment, and exploring new business opportunities unheard of before.

No wonder more and more skiers and vacationers are leaving their skis at home and are instead opting for the more convenient gear rentals. After all, lugging ski equipment around especially when traveling in groups and by plane can be pretty cumbersome.

Ski rental shops nowadays do not merely lease out ski equipment. They offer a whole lot of other services as well that can make your skiing holiday hassle-free.

Online Reservation – Most rental shops found in Vail also have an online presence. This is to ensure that once you get there, you already have your equipment waiting for you. In the meantime, you can spend as long as you want choosing the gear that you would be most comfortable with.

Rental of All Types of Ski and Snowboard Equipment – Gone are the days when availing of rentals meant being content with sub par equipment. Now you can actually rent good quality skis and snowboards at reasonable rates. Choose from a wide range of brands, colors, styles, and sizes to suit every member of your party.

Free Ski Storage – Enjoy a day on the slopes and check out the shopping areas, restaurants, and bars later. How to make the seamless transition from skiing to relaxing to partying? Leave all your bulky equipment at the rentals shop where you got them. Most shops are in close proximity to the lifts so you can just pick them up again first thing the following day.

Equipment Delivery – For those who don’t want to be bothered having to visit shops and want to make the most of their time in their cozy accommodations, skis and snowboard rentals can be delivered right to your Vail doorstep. Some rental services are even on wheels so they can be on the go all the time.

Convenient Locations – One common feature of rental shops is being easily accessible. Many are just a few steps away from the lifts, others are just off the I-70, some have well-situated slopeside locations, and there are even those which claim to be “closest to the slopes”. Wherever you go in Vail, there’s sure to be a rentals shop just nearby.

Tuning Up and Waxing – Whether you intend to race down the slopes or just take a relaxed slide off the mountain, quality ski tuning is a must for a guaranteed fun run. Waxing services are also available to make sure your skis are suitable to the current conditions of the mountain.

Discount Coupons – Promos for all sorts of rental packages are available for all Vail skiers and snowboarders. Incentives are especially guaranteed when you make advance online reservations – for some, even just 24 hours earlier. Discounts for as much as 10 to 25 percent are up for grabs, as well as free pick up and delivery, free kids’ rental, and even discounted lift tickets.

Demo Packages – You have the option to try out the top of the line ski equipment the shop has to offer. If you decide to purchase the gear you tried out after a day or two of use, the price for the demo session will be knocked off the ski price, in effect letting you have a free demo package.
