If you’re planning to ski or snowboard for the first time this winter, one of the biggest questions you’ll have is:
Should I rent equipment every time I go to the mountain, or should I get a seasonal rental?
The answer depends on how often you plan to ski; but for many families and beginner skiers, a seasonal rental ends up being one of the smartest investments they can make.
Let’s break it down.
What Is a Daily Rental?
A Daily Rental is exactly what it sounds like - you rent skis or a snowboard each time you visit the mountain. You can do this from a local ski shop (like Potter Bros) or directly at the ski resort.
Daily Rentals can be a great option if:
* You’re only planning to ski once.
* You’re on vacation and won’t be skiing again this season.
* You want to try the sport before committing to additional trips.
For occasional skiers, Daily Rentals make sense.
What Is a Seasonal Rental?
A Seasonal Rental gives you a complete ski or snowboard package that you keep for the entire ski season.
Instead of having to coordinate getting your rentals each time you go, your equipment is already yours for the winter. You can head straight to the slopes and spend more time skiing and less time waiting.
At Potter Bros, our Summer Seasonal Rental Special allows you to rent your equipment before the season begins for just $129.95 ($70 OFF our regular in-season rate).
It’s truly one of the easiest and most affordable ways to get started.
Which Option Saves More Money?
Here’s where a Seasonal Rental package really shines.
If you plan to ski several times this winter, a Seasonal Rental may cost significantly less than paying for rentals each visit. Just as important, you’ll know exactly what your equipment costs before the season even begins.
Also, while the savings are important, convenience is often the biggest benefit.
With a Seasonal Rental:
* Your equipment is professionally fitted to you.
* You become comfortable using the same equipment every trip.
* There’s no waiting in rental lines.
* You can decide to ski at the last minute without worrying about rental availability.
* Weekend mornings become much less stressful; especially for families.
The more often you ski, the more valuable that convenience becomes.
Why Families Love Seasonal Rentals
Parents quickly discover that Seasonal Rentals make family ski trips much easier.
Instead of arriving early to get everyone fitted each visit, the kids already have equipment that’s ready to go.
That means:
* Less stress.
* More time on the mountain.
* Happier kids.
* More enjoyable family weekends
