Ski, Snowboard and Boot Hire

 

We can pre-book your skis, snowboard, boots and childrens’ helmets, so that it’s all arranged for you and you won't have to worry about paying once you arrive.  We have selected Sport 2000, which ensures that only the highest standard of equipment and service will be provided for all levels of skiers: regularly waxed and edged skis, boots disinfection between each rental and bindings adjusted by a qualified technician in the resort.

 

With over 300 outlets in France, it allows us to offer you a very wide range of shops and we are able to provide equipment hire in all of our resorts. In most resorts, the nearest shop will be in a maximum radius of one kilometre from your accommodation, although only a few hundred metres in many cases.

 

We advise that you pre-book your equipment in advance, so that:

 

Your equipment is reserved and waiting for you

You save precious skiing time

You don’t have to worry about transporting bulky heavy equipment from the UK

In addition to keen prices, you are assured that the price you pay at the time of booking will not change once you get to the resort

 

We have four categories of equipment:

(We have listed here some of the most common examples of skis you will find. Please note that we do not offer the basic ‘Green’ category as these are generally inadequate skis even for beginners)

 

BLUE For first time and recreational skiers looking to improve their technique

1. Dynastar D’Stinct R1, Salomon X-Wing 500  or Equivalent: stable skis for easy  

    progress

2. Salomon Snowblade Mini-Max or Equivalent: mini-tools from maxi fun

We are confident that most adequate equipment will be provided and adjusted when you arrive at the shop. However, the technicians will be happy to re-adjust the bindings, swap your boots or skis if you require after a few hours or days skiing. If you wish to exchange skis against snowboard mid-week, this will be possible in most shops, at a supplement, payable locally.

 

Please note that during peak periods, it may be difficult to exchange equipment, but the staff on site will be happy to assist you the best they can; so please do not hesitate to ask.

 

We recommend that children under 13 years wear a helmet for their safety.

We can arrange all hire for any duration (minimum 3 days), please call us for details.
