My sister and I wanted to rent some Skigear for one day since the one I usually went to was closed (Ultimate Sports). We went there not expecting a lot and the guys upstairs were really nice. We went downstairs where all the rental stuff is and the worst customer service of our life started. The owner was extremely unfriendly and it was just awful. We were so close to just leave because we felt so unwelcome. I told him which size I usually wear and he kept telling me he knows better since this is his store. He tried to show and tell us that his store is way better than Ultimate just because I told him I usually go there but they're closed today. I also kindly asked if we can pay as we wanted to grab the next shuttle to Sunshine Village and he said in a really bad way: When the paperwork is done you can pay, yes. We told him we are in a little rush but he didn't care at all and kept helping other customers even though there was more staff in store. When we returned the gear (he wanted us to return everything before 5pm but they're open until 9pm or something) he wasn't there anymore and we told the other ones in store how awful he was and they started apologizing for him and that they know how awful he is. I mean? Do you really want to have a store where your staff has to apologize for their own manager/boss?! Do yourself a favor and DON'T rent anything here!!! I can highly recommend Ultimate Sports across the street. They are cheaper, have a local discount and are extremely kind, chill and funny! And you can return your gear the next day or easily call them to have them for another day and pay when you return them.

Abominable indeed. Cashier was extremely obnoxious and rude, acting like he's doing us a favor for just being there and barely doing his job. Whatever dude, you get to keep your overpriced merchandise, there's like a dozen of similar places in the sametown.

Kevin is one of the most knowledgeable and attentive people in the Bow Valley for all your ski and hiking needs. His caring nature will make you feel at ease and find the right ski/hiking boot and skiis for you. Highly recommend

Great store, friendly staff and a large range of products! Great ski rental section too. You can basically rent your skis and if you like them then you can just buy them. Such a good way to buy skis.
