We are excited that gear is starting to arrive for the winter, but we know this season will be different from prior years due to global manufacturing challenges for certain products and shipping delays.

I know what I want, can I purchase it over the phone/online?
Some of our inventory is online and available for purchase and these items can be purchased online then either picked up in store or shipped to you.
However, we do not sell certain items online - specifically skis and boots. We believe the fitting process is very important and appreciate the opportunity to go through that with you so that you get the right equipment. If you are unable to come into the store, please contact us and where possible we will assist you remotely via the phone or via email.
What additional COVID related measures are in place?
In line with the announcements from the Alberta Government in September 2021, we are limiting the number of people in the store to 1/3 of fire code capacity. Additionally, you are required to wear a mask while inside the store (unless you have a medical exemption). We are wearing masks and have partitions in place in the ski fitting. We ask that you respect the physical distancing requirements while you move around the store where possible.
We continue to support shipping and curb-side pick up for those that prefer not to enter the store. If you are looking for something that is not available for purchase on our website, please email us and we will do our best to support you with remote shopping.
If you do want to come into the store but are looking to avoid as many people as possible, please come in early in the as this is generally the quietest time of day. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings are generally the quietest times of the week.
