Equipment

Should I buy or rent equipment? +

We generally recommend that you buy your own skis/snowboard – it’s preferable to have your own setup and it’s usually more cost effective too. Renting options may be suitable for shorter trips or if you’d like a specific ski or snowboard for a particular day. For example, you might want to rent a powder ski for a deep storm day.

Equipment

I'm planning on buying new equipment. Should I wait until I get to resort? +

If you need to buy new equipment for your course, it might be worthwhile to wait and purchase in resort once you arrive. You’ll get the best advice – specific to local conditions – be able to demo gear, be covered by the local warranty if anything breaks, and lastly, you won’t have to travel with it on your outbound trip.

 

Additionally, in a few local shops, Nonstop riders may receive a discount of circa 10-15%.

I already have skis / a snowboard. Will they be suitable? +

If you already have your own skis or snowboard, you are welcome to bring these along. Each course and resort varies, but a versatile all-mountain ski/snowboard will work for most riders.

 

Speak to one of our team and we can advise on whether your current setup is likely to be suitable for your course, or if you may need to consider a new setup.

Do I need to bring my own equipment? +

Yes. You must provide all your own ski or snowboard equipment, protection and outerwear.

Can I rent equipment? +

You can opt to rent equipment, but this should be balanced against cost. We generally recommend that you have your own equipment for any trips 2 weeks or longer.
