Tuning and Repair Services

We offer a full menu of ski and snowboard tuning and repair.  Years and years of experience from a well-established business means we know what it takes to enhance your time on the mountain.  We service just about any alpine ski, boot, binding or snowboard, along with Alpine Touring and Splitboarding equipment.
  • Personalized Service: Let us know what you need!  We'll help evaluate your gear and provide the best options to keep it maintained the way you want!
  • Fast turnaround:  We realize you either are lucky enough to live here and want to get to the mountain every day, or are here for a shorter time and want (need??) to maximize your time on the mountain.  In fact, we still have a sign from the old days hanging up that says "Mounting while you wait".  These days we can't promise we can do everything you need while you wait, but in some cases we can, and will!  If not, we strive to turn the work around as soon as we can so you can get back to the mountain.
  • Years of knowledge: Not everyone is going to come in asking for a buckle replacement for a 1976 Caber Alfa (if you do, give us enough time and you might be surprised), but having been around for a while we generally can quickly diagnose an issue. 
  • It's what we do:  This is our full-time job -we're focused on alpine ski and snowboard products and are committed to servicing them.

More things we can do:

  • We stock a large variety of boot replacement soles.  It's important to be sure your boot sole is within spec, and will often see boots with heels and toes worn past the tolerance allowed.  Many times, we can simply replace the sole for you.
  • Moving a binding from one ski to another? Great! Keep in mind the brake may or may not be compatible with the new ski.  We keep a variety of stock in brakes from Marker, Salomon and Look and can simply install a new brake to keep you going.
  • Hotronic testing.  We're equipped with Hotronic battery testers, infrared thermometers and are able to diagnose if there is something wrong with your heating system.  We are stocked with replacement parts (heating elements, batteries, and more) to keep you warm.
  • Replace the Ti heeltrack in a Z series Salomon binding? Yup, we probably have a few of those left in stock..
