Poster: A snowHead

Hi All,
About 4 years Back you could hire skis in the UK and collect at the airport, this saved us loads of money and time in resort. We used Edge to Edge, from the look of the website it doesn't look like they are doing this anymore, anyone know of anyone else??
Thanks

Don't know about hiring but sport pursuit are selling skis for about the same as hiring.

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

snowbum1971, why would you want to hire skis in the UK, then pay the extra ski carriage charges vs hiring in resort?? I'd understand if you were driving and the hire was cheaper in the UK..............

snowbum1971, Edge 2 Edge went bust which might tell you something about the business model.

I dunno, if the gear was cheap enough I would think about it and I suppose it depends on the gear. Any run of the mill gear it's not worth it but if it was higher end stuff then maybe people would take it?

We hired 5 pairs of decent skis, only needed 2 extra bags to get them on the flights to the US, saved about £100 pp! Hire for decent skis in the US and Canada are expensive, I've bought skis this year in the Snow & Rock sale but the other 4 need skis to hire

I believe Captains cabin hire skis still. But they are in Canterbury Kent so I doubt that will help you much.

Nevisport in Glasgow hires skis, or at least they used to when I was their ski tech about 15 years ago... geeeez was it REALLY that long ago!?

I would never hire from the UK, unless perhaps I was driving
