 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi guys, was wondering if any of you knew anywhere that serviced skis in the uk?
Preferably as close as possible to Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, as the parents are gonna have to get it done for me as I'm out of the country until the season starts...
Any reccomendations would be brilliant.
Thanks a million,
Sn0wSt0rm

sn0wst0rm, I'm in Peterborough which isn't that far from Wellingborough. Tallington Lakes Dry Slope near Stamford do a decent job although I do my own now. Only problem is that they usually take a few days which would mean 2 visits.

If the condition Tallington keep the hire skis reflects their service I'd definately drive a few miles to avoid them!

Not trying to push service work away - but just thought I would mention you also have -
Two Seasons - Northampton
Boarders Boards - Weedon Bec (Just outside Northampton)
Can't say what the service is like at the above shops but am sure other snowheads will post if they have used them.
For us because we are based in a small country village in the middle of nowhere - if we have a racer/recreational skier bring their skis down around lunchtime - depending on workload i normally direct them to the nice cosy village pub just down the road, they can then have lunch and a drink in front of an open log fire and i give them a ring/text when the work is complete, this then cuts down on fuel costs on collection etc.
But as mentioned above you do have those other shops which will be closer for your parents but not sure what the service is like.
