Sandi is a fantastic boot fitter. She was very patient and educated us about what type of boot is appropriate for size and type of skier. I highly recommend her!

I have great deal if respect for the team here, they work hard and deal with a high volume of traffic. Anyone who lacks the ability to see a worker is busy is clearly lacking in appreciation of others. I like the service and have demo'd and purchased sets of skis here and they have all been great!

Tom and the rest of his team went above and beyond helping me find a new set of skis to fit my new boots. Highly highly recommend!
