Sports Equipment |
| Each destination has a sports shop offering equipment rentals.
Skis and boots or snowboard and boots prices vary from area to area. An advanced skier needs stronger more stable equipment to grip better on steeper icier snow. Advanced equipment is more expensive to rent. Children’s equipment and cross-country ski equipment are usually somewhat cheaper. |

| If
you wish to purchase ski equipment (Austrian made skies, etc.),

| Rental for more days: Ski or Snowboard rental for just 1, 2, 3 or 4 days has to be day by day. However, for 5 or more days, a deal with the sports shop can be arranged through your Snow Shuttle guide to avoid renting skis on a daily basis. |
