Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi All,
A nasty bunch of hidden rocks attacked my 4 day old pow skis on the weekend and as a result I have a cracked sidewall under the foot area and a big core shot. I am not sure if the ski is repairable or not but would like to take it in for assessment to a recommended repair shop that does major ski repairs. I know sidewalls can be fixed but I am not sure if the core itself hasnt been smashed to bits around the impact area. I would like to keep the skis if poss hence call for good repair shops.
Any suggestions advice would be welcome
Cheers
Brent

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

Make that x 3. Did a lovely patch in a core-shot right on the edge just last week for me. Great shop, great service.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Good ski repair shops in or close to London for major surgery |
Not sure I'd trust anyone with a scalpel (or even a bandage) in one of those places. If you're talking about open heart surgery etc., I'd look at a London teaching hospital.

I'd still go for Bartletts. Courier each way is a PITA.

I'd go for Bartletts, because that's where I'd courier them to if I didn't live a few miles down the road.

You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net.

Another vote for Bartletts. Make sure you speak to Graham (the boss). I'm sure his staff are good, but he really knows his stuff.
If you've really trashed the sidewall you may be in trouble, but it is worth getting Graham to take a look.
