Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Snowboard hire in La Tania

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
Hello everyone, first post <bows>. Sorry to start with such a mundane topic, but does anyone know of a good hire firm in La Tania? I suspect there won't be many, as snowboard hire in general is patchy, and La Tania is tiny, but I thought I'd ask. Would consider anywhere nearby too. Thanks!

Prcp Sarl
Résidence Les Folyères

you will have a load more choice over in 1550, or a the very bottom of the hill in Bozel theres a decent hire shop. (which is also WAY cheaper than anything in resort)

Online skiset site states you can pre book snowboard, boots and helmet, you can select/deselect boots and helmet giving a starting price of from 80euros for 6 days starting this sun(as an exams)
There are different levels of board to chose from.
I have No idea if this is reasonable or not, but includes a 30% discount doing online.

the biggest problem with Tanie is that there is no wher else nearby. Tania is stuck on the edge of the resort. its a free bus ride up to 1550 or 1850 if you want to go look in the main resort for hire shops. bus takes about 30 mins.

There are at least 3 hire shops in La Tania that I know of, and they all do boards, though my only direct experience is hiring skis etc:

1) Intersport (I booked ski hire here recently through Alpin Resorts for my family, which was very cheap, and fine) which is the one is Les Folyeres mentioned by mini.mansell. There's usually a discount code for Alpin Resorts that knocks a bit off the price. They're right in the centre of the village, next to the cafes that front the beginner ski area.

2) Ski Higher. Also right in the centre by the bridge. Probably slightly better equipment/service, but also I think slightly more expensive.

3) Snow Retreat have a ski hire service, which may be available to people in other accommodation (not sure - you could ask):

My group used them last year for maximum convenience (as we were staying with Snow Retreat) and they were fine too. I used them this year to service my skis after some rock damage and they did an excellent job (overnight on Christmas Eve no less).

Vinerower - Ski Wave, which is where the Skiset site will direct you, rent out boards. My son has hired one for the past few years. They are right in the middle of La Tania and are freindly and efficient. Good luck.
