My husband and I just retired and were ready to buy downhill ski equipment after renting for years. Our first stop was Ski Pro. Andy T spent a lot of time with us explaining the latest technology and answering our questions. He didn't try to oversell us and in fact steered us to some discounted equipment. We didn't feel hurried or any pressure. We bought all of our equipment there. Whether you RENT or BUY we highly recommend giving SKI PRO a try.
