 Poster: A snowHead
|
Has anybody used these guys for rental?
They appear to be rather cheaper than the in town shops at the cost of having relatively few models and being a bus ride down the road.
Going as a large-ish group on the 14th Jan and many of the members are quite cost conscious. Mostly improvers with us, while I want a ski that will stand up to throwing myself down mainly red pistes with the occasional black. Some of the prices in town for mid range skis are hitting €140 for the week compared with about €70 for equivalent here 
Thanks in advance!

I believe I used them earlier, but not in Saalbach - As far as I can remember, they are a broker like booking.com, meaning that you don’t rent direct. I had no problems with them.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

We used them in St Anton and can’t recommend them highly enough. Great prices, service and equipment.

@itsLiamFleming, another option may be to use Hansi’s in the town….if you mention having the recommendation from Tatman’s Tours (see the Saalbach thread in Resorts), you will get a discount (10%?).
Great guy (Hansi), good range of equipment, centrally located and you may even be offered a complimentary schnapps (or two  )

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I'll check them out, a schnapps does sound mighty tempting  . Do you have any inclination how the rental categories stack up (Top, VIP, premium) in terms of suitability for more difficult pistes?

@itsLiamFleming, it was nine years ago that I used Hansi - recommended by Tatman’ Tours, so my up to date knowledge is, at best, a bit sketchy! If you pose the question in the Saalbach Hinterglemm thread in Resorts, my guess is you’d get a clear picture of the range of equipment. There are quite a few snowHeads who will have a much better, recent experience.
