Poster: A snowHead
|
I've been into Ellis Brigham and sussed out what kit I want, I just don't want to pay that much for it all. They have said that they will price match if it's a proper shop. So that could be an option.
I'm after some Nike Vapen boots, Union Contact or Burton Custom bindings and a Nidecker Score board. Is there an online shop that offers any/all of these cheaper than EB? I also need some other bits like a board bag and crash pants. If I can get it all cheap enough, then I want to kit the Mrs out too.
Any help would be appreciated!

If you've got a really particular idea of what you want, your choices will naturally be more limited e.g. not sure how much UK market there is for Nidecker decks. I think you'll have a hard time finding many of them on sale domestically (they're 2 a penny on the mainland though).
A good first port of call in any case to do a Google 'Shopping' search on the things you want.
As another starting point, Granite Reef have a sale on at the moment. I've used them. They're good.
Robin Hood Watersports also have quite a bit of clearance stock. I've used them too.

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

Head over to SCUK (Snowboard Club UK), sign up for a years membership (£15 IIRC) and you can get a discount at quite a few places (they're listed on the SCUK website) including some of the smaller indy shops as well as TSA.

Have a look at absolute-snow.co.uk
Bought some stuff through them before and they're pretty good if you're on a budget.

You'll need to Register first of course.

If it's all current-season kit you want, then you're unlikely to find any significant discounts.

bluetomato.com normally have sales and discounts and would probably have most of what you want, everything apart from the board would be available much cheaper across the pond, set up a shop and ship account and it gets delivered fast and cheaply as well

Oooh, that could be an option. Not heard of that SnS service before, cheers. My wife won't like you, but my credit card will!
Same question then I guess, but for US websites?!

SS20 is 40% off Forum boards an boots from 11/12 season you probably could cut a deal if so inclined on a large purchase .
I have some gear you mentioned to shift, PM for a ph number if good used gear is a option although its alot easier to just buy new with a onestop shop and get it delivered.
