Part 2 is here! with Jim Hemmingway, Head of Rentals at NZG Ski — and if you caught Part 1, you’ll know Jim brings a huge amount of knowledge and experience from the snow sports industry. ❄️
In this episode, we dive straight into why understanding equipment is so important. The right gear plays a massive role in how people learn, progress, and ultimately enjoy their time on the mountain. Jim breaks down what equipment works best for beginners, how ski systems have evolved over the years, and what really makes a difference when fitting out guests for success.
We also go behind the scenes of rental operations, what it actually takes to service thousands of skis and snowboards in a short window of time, and how that impacts the overall guest experience.
Thanks for your patience while we’ve been busy. We’re excited to be back recording and bringing you more episodes like this. Enjoy!
