Every year we say it can't get better. Every year, it does. 🤯

Thanks to everyone who took part in the sale this year - especially those who braved the rain on Friday morning! Whether selling your skis, buying a new pair, or both, we hope the event delivered something that got you excited for winter.

➡️ Sellers: To see if your skis sold, and for more information on next steps, check the link we texted you when you dropped off your gear.

And just like that, we're onto dreaming about cold temps and low-pressure systems. Are you doing your snow dances yet?! ❄️

It's been epic watching everyone score on gear the last few days. 🤘

Just a reminder - if you haven't made it out yet, there's still time to get in on the sale - we still have great skis and bikes left, all at killer prices. But today's the last day - so don't wait any longer.

We're here until 6 pm. Last chance, let's gooo! ❄️

SALE STARTS TOMORROW ⛷️
And the set up is looking stacked 👌

Set your alarm - we’re meeting here at 8am (lining up early 👀) for the ski sale of the year. Skis on skis on skis, all at incredible prices. 😱

You’ve got tomorrow (Friday, September 4) through Sunday (September 6), 8am to 6pm, to swing by and snag some great deals.

A few pro tips:
➡️ The line forms before 8am for first pick. If you want the early selection, treat this like a powder day and hustle over.
➡️ If you’re buying for more than yourself - looking at you, race parents 👀 - jot down everyone’s sizes and ski lengths ahead of time.
➡️ Know what you want before you get there. If you hesitate on a sick pair, you’ll probably lose out. Spot it, grab it.

We’re looking forward to the BIG day.... See you at the shop! 🤘

We caught up with Stan to show you a little bit of what you can expect to find this weekend … but this is just the tip of the iceberg - on Friday morning, our parking lot will be filled with skis. Hundreds of pairs (Stan estimates 800 in fact). 😳 Backcountry setups, powder skis, race, all-mountain, park, and everything in between. Epic deals on bikes, too. Guaranteed FOMO (fear of missing out) if you don’t come take a look. 👀

Quick tip ➡️ the line starts forming before 8 on Friday. The early bird gets the worm, as they say.
