Ski & Snowboard

Was here for Mud hero and it was great. Lots of parking and great chalet.

Extremely helpful and friendly. You can't find a better ski shop then this one.

Was helped instantly. Friendly customer service, plenty of options.

Buckman’s is the model of what customer service should be. They handled a factory warranty on a pair of boots for me. They dealt with the manufacturer and obtained a full refund on my behalf. Love the fact that they stood up for me as the customer. They’ve earned my business over the years.

Bolton Valley is unique place in USA. The Valley located high up in Green Mountains and surrounded by ridges almost by 360 degrees. It is secluded yet people live there year around and have ability to work in near by companies, including high tech startups, manufactures and businesses. It is just 30 minutes of always relaxed drive to Burlington, VT and same to Montpelier. I use to work in a company in Burlington and each time coming up to my condo, I was delighted to inhale ever fresh air of the mountains and to hear meditative music of nearby streams and waterfalls. In winter after work and quick change to ski gear, I was able to catch 2 hours of skiing. In weekends, the famous "Trap family lodge" trail (a part of Catamount trail) attracts a lot of back-country skiers for 9 miles ups and downs in the complete wilderness of green mountain ridges. In summer and fall it is rich playground for hiking and dipping in the swimming holes of Joiner brook, discovering hidden lookouts and secluded values.

DO. NOT. GO. TO. THIS. STORE. If I could give this place less than 1 star, I would. I dropped off my skis & boots for a repair/adjustment on January 4th, was told to come back on January 15th. I came back on January 23rd, giving an extra week for the repairs. I paid for the repairs on the spot. However, when I showed up to pick them up on January 23rd - THREE WEEKS LATER - I was told the work wasn't done because they didn't know I had already paid. A simple computer search was able to indicate to the employee I did in fact, already pay. I was not notified by phone or email. I was told the service would be another hour which I did not have given my skis were already there for THREE WEEKS and had somewhere to be. I attempted to call to speak to the manager more than 5 times on Sunday, and no one answered. On Monday, I finally got through to someone who put me on hold for 15 minutes while getting the manager. When I spoke to the manager, he did not have an answer for me but told me to

Easily the best place to go for anything snow sport related. Whether your getting new gear or rentals this is by far the best place to go in Killington. The customer service, expertise, prices and employees are all the reasons why.. I came up for a weekend trip, packed all my gear except forgot my boots. I was pissed but ended up going to Black Dog Sports on local recommendation (super convenient right next to Ramshed entrance) they checked my skis out saw I had a broken binding, probably saving me from breaking a leg. Unfortunately, they didn’t have the part to fix it and saw I was pretty bummed about my performance skis being broken. So, they hooked me up with boots and a set of Atomic Demo skis for the day!! They didn’t have to do this at all but went above and beyond. Can’t wait for the season next year so I can come back and buy my next set of skis and boots from here. Great prices on everything and willing to cut deals if your getting a few things. No one does that up here! These guys know what they’re talking about and will set you up with everything your looking for. Everyone in Black Dog truly just wants you to have good time on the mountain and enjoy the snow. I wouldn’t go anywhere else, 5 stars! Thank you Black Dog Sports!

Good beginner and intermediate mountain. A handful of advanced trails as well and a gigantic section of the mountain devoted to terrain parks. However, the one drawback, being a southern Vermont ski area, is the large crowds of people. Amazing how crowded some of the trails get.

Amazing experience at this shop. Jim had a wonderful selection for ski rentals and was very knowledgeable. My family has been renting skis from this shop. I love it there, you will too!

I love in Maryland but have been going to Darkside for all my gear since I first found out about them 4 years ago. These guys know their gear and always have the inside track on the latest and greatest. If the darkside guys read this, thank you for all your help. I have never had customer service this great.

Je ne suis pas encore aller mes j espère qu'il y a plein de pièce de trottinette freestyle parce que si il y en a pas chui dessu surtout les bar Apex

Great local sports store, knowledgeable, friendly staff, fair prices good selection for most sctivities

We have gone to this ski shop to rent every year for 3 years and they provide excellent service, are friendly and go above and beyond. Definitely worth renting from them.

Great people and snowboard shop define a must stop;

Beautiful setting, with fun, adventuous camps for the kids (ages 7 and 11). They come back exhausted but excited to go back at the end of each day of camp. Lots of hikes, activities and places to explore. My youngest (5) enjoyed the playgrounds, pools and splash areas, as well as the walks through the woods geared towards families with young children. The condo is roomy, clean and a short walk to most of the activities.

Great for ski racers
