I have been renting from Ski Base since they were open. Not only are they friendly, helpful and filled with knowledge, they are caring. Over the years, they have encouraged me to try different skis, improve my ability, and get to know the mountain with a variety of skis. If a ski doesn't fit my needs, I just ski down the mountain and change it out. Takes about 10 minutes to do. I feel they have helped me improve my skiing through their encouragement. I wouldn't go to any other ski shop in Vail, and I encourage everyone to go to Ski Base. They are locally owned and all of their employees are avid skiers who really get it. By the way, their head tech guy has been with them from the beginning and they wax and service your own skis until they are done each night. Sometimes, that is very, very late if they are busy. Don't go anywhere else in Vail!! If you see a negative review, just don't believe it. From Peggy Hamilton in Brown Summit, NC.
