  1. Guide to Renting Ski and Snowboard Equipment

  2. There are copious amounts of ski and snowboard equipment or gear on the market. In fact, there are so many choices that novice skiers and snowboarders may not know what to buy, how to buy, or where to buy. However, ski and snowboard equipment can be too expensive for the average buyer.

  3. So, the key to buying this equipment is not to buy it – it’s to rent it. But most people don’t know what equipment to rent or how to rent that equipment. Below is a brief guide on renting ski and snowboard gear.

  4. Rent the Right Equipment There are certain things you’ll need to make your ski and snowboard trip a fun, eventful one. These things include a great location, like Whistler, ski and/or snowboard clothing, and ski and/or snowboard equipment. The gear you’ll need for skiing and snowboarding includes:

  5. A ski jacket, snowsuit, and/or ski or snowboarding pants • Specialty ski socks • Long underwear and a turtleneck and fleece or sweater • Ski and snowboard gloves • A helmet liner or hat • Snow Googles

  6. Snowboard or ski boots • A helmet • Skis • A snowboard and bindings • Ski Poles

  7. Even though this clothing and equipment seems simple, it can be expensive. Top-quality, protective clothing and equipment is especially more expensive than others. Fortunately, most novice skiers and/or snowboarders won’t need high-end gear.

  8. But, no matter what type of gear you want, most ski resorts in Whistler and beyond offer affordable equipment rental prices and packages. These packages will include everything you need to have the perfect Whistler snowboarding and ski trip.

  9. Rent at the Right Place Although you can buy ski and snowboard gear almost anywhere, there are truly only two places where you can rent it: a local ski shop or a resort ski shop. If you rent your equipment from a local ski shop, you can order it before your trip.

  10. On the other hand, if you rent from a Whistler resort ski shop, a special equipment package and fee will be included with your vacation package and the gear can be stored onsite and be readily available and accessible. Equipment can also be rented online and delivered to your resort.

  11. Search for the Most Affordable Rental Rates Whistler ski rental ratescan vary, but they’re mostly affordable. Plus, the rates often depend on how long your renting the equipment, where you’re renting it from, and the type of equipment you’re renting.

  12. Rates typically range from $20 to more than $100 per day with damage insurance included. While most resorts require damage insurance for equipment rental, it typically costs less than $5 per day. But if you want the best rates, reserve your ski and snowboard gear a few weeks before your trip.
