Which Rental Skis Are Right for Me?

Three questions before you choose

How do I ski today?
Think about your recent ski days: first turns, controlled parallel skiing or deliberate carving. After a break, a more relaxed choice may suit your plans.
What kind of day do I want?
Easy family outings and active carving days call for different choices. Choose for the skiing you actually plan to do.
What else do I need?
Own boots or hire boots, a helmet for you or the children: select equipment for each person. Everyone can choose a different category.

Questions about choosing hire skis

Do I need Performance skis for black runs?

Piste colour alone does not determine your category. Your ability, skiing style and the conditions matter. Performance is aimed at experienced, active skiers. If you are unsure, discuss your choice with us in the shop.

Will I get the exact ski in the photograph?

The photographs show example models. You reserve a category. We choose the model and length based on your details, the personal fitting and availability.

Which ski length should I choose online?

Enter your height and skiing ability during booking. We choose the actual ski length with you at collection; you do not need to work it out from a general formula.

Can everyone in my family choose different equipment?

Add a ski helmet for each person who needs one. Its price is included in the online total with the 10% online discount. We check the fit at collection.
