How long does a tune take?
Our rotation times vary through the season depending on volumes, but we have an average turnaround time of about one week. Unfortunately, due to the nature of our equipment, we are unable to do tunes on the spot.

What age group are the season lease packages for?
The best age group for our season lease packages are those between 3 and 12. We do not recommend season lease equipment for children over the age of 12 as the foam core skis are not designed to handle more aggressive skiing.
Our smallest skis are 70cm and our smallest boots are a 15.5. This roughly correlates to a child who is 36 inches tall with a kids size 8 shoe.
Our largest skis are 150cm and our largest boots are a 26.5 which roughly correlates to a child who is 5 feet 2 inches with a size 8 women’s or a size 9 men’s shoe.
What happens if my child grows during the season?
We understand that you can’t stop feeding your child just to prevent inevitable growth spurts. If your child outgrows their boots, or if they are uncomfortable for any reason, bring your equipment back to us and we will trade it out for you.*
*NOTE: You must bring in the skis with the boots so that the bindings can be adjusted to the new boots.

Boots
What brands of boots do you carry?

What types of boot work do you do?
We punch out shells, grind, expand toe boxes, and insert pads to make your boot have the best possible fit. We also do repairs on buckles and boot soles that may get worn down over time.
What is the best boot model that you carry?
All of the boots we carry are of high quality, but each boot has a different fit and stiffness that will suit each individual differently. We carefully examine the shape of your foot, your arch, and your calf as well as inquire into your preferred skiing style to choose the boot that is best for you. The boots that your friend raves about being the most comfortable things they have ever put on their feet might not be the pair that suits your needs. We strongly discourage ever trying to purchase a pair of boots online. Our boot fitters are trained to choose the best boot and make sure that you will be skiing with comfort and confidence.
What if I don’t like my boots after skiing on them?
We recommend a three day break in period for new boots. If there is any discomfort after this time, we will do work on the boots to adjust them accordingly. If your boots still do not work for you after this, we have a Boot Fit Guarantee and will credit your boots towards another pair within the first year of use.
