Rent Skis/Snowboard for the Season?

You just moved to a place that finally has some elevation and you’ve had one of the most exciting summers of your life exploring the Rockies. Yet, with every passing day, you hear more about the approaching legendary winter. Between ski sale events and season pass promos, for the first time in your life, you’re starting to use “excited” and “winter” in the same sentence. You simply can’t wait to see if all the hype surrounding skiing and snowboarding at Breckenridge is worth believing.

However, the move out here wasn’t cheap and you’re starting to notice lift ticket prices. The price of an individual ticket makes you cringe at upwards of $145 at Breck. You also have the option to spend big all at once on a season pass (choose this option, trust me). After doing the math, purchasing new equipment might be difficult. On top of the cost, you’re not sure whether skiing or snowboarding is your true calling, and you don’t want to make a long-term commitment to either without trying them first. What to do?  There are so many new style skis and boards that who really knows what they really want without trying them out, and not just for a day.

Have you considered a season ski or snowboard rental from Elevation Ski and Bike?

From there, take the equipment with you…for the WHOLE season! The convenience doesn’t stop there. If you have an issue with any of your equipment, whether it is the fit of your boots, a ski pole that didn’t make it into the car or a malfunctioning ratchet on your snowboard binding, Elevation has you covered.  Just stop by and we will fix it, or switch out your gear.

Here’s another advantage to renting gear for the season. Say that you grab skis in November, and by mid-January you’ve already put some serious mileage on the sticks. Drop into a Elevation Ski and Bike and get your ski rental gear tuned at no charge! Getting ski wax on your landlord’s carpet is probably not on your to-do list, which is why the friendly and experienced staff at Elevation Ski and Bike location is happy to get your rental equipment mountain-ready again.

Remember how I said to splurge and buy the season pass, even though you still need equipment? You can afford it, and here’s why: a season rental package starts at just $150 for an adult and $100 for a junior! That’s everything you need: boots, bindings, poles and a pair of skis or a snowboard. It’s yours from the day you pick it up until Mid-April 2016. Not to mention you can switch between skis and a board as many times your heart desires, and Elevation Ski and Bike even provides a free mid-season tune for your rental gear.  Everyone else reading this is thinking the same thing, which is why you need to hurry in and pick up your ski rental or snowboard rental for the season. 

If you thought summer in Breck was fun, just wait until the snow starts to pile up! Any negative feelings you have about winter will be replaced with happy thoughts of slashing powder during the day and learning the true meaning of après at night.
