They will also remove positive posts at random because they think the posts are not legitimate. To Yelp every negative review is legitimate and every positive review is suspect.

The employees were helpful, informative, and friendly. The store was well-stocked for a resort storefront. I will be back.

I was really excited to purchase a merino wool pullover from East Slope Outfitters in Big Sky Town…read moreCenter. It was performing well, so I went back the next day and purchased a second one. Unfortunately, the first pullover started developing pulls almost immediately. One particularly long pull in the front snagged on something as minor as my cuticle--something that shouldn't even be possible. I also noticed additional pulls on the back, even though I had been careful with it. When I went into the store to discuss the issue, an employee was empathetic and directed me to the manager. However, the manager--a brunette helping a customer with ski goggles--was completely dismissive. When I explained the situation, she responded with, "Oh, it must have pulled on something." I acknowledged that it caught on my nail, but I was shocked that such an expensive pullover would be so fragile. Rather than offering any assistance or even engaging in a conversation about product quality, she quickly shut it down, saying they couldn't do anything since I had already had it for a few days. For a store selling high-end outdoor gear, I expected better durability and customer support. Spending around $130, I at least hoped for a discussion about quality assurance or a possible exchange. Instead, I was met with indifference. It felt like they cater more to tourists passing through than to customers who actually care about their purchases. If you're looking for durable gear from a store that stands behind its products, I'd recommend looking elsewhere.

When I picked up the board, they had not only performed the previously discussed repairs, but they also did a bunch of p-tex work on the base and a wax, and still charged me the previously agreed upon price. I'll definitely be back here next time I need tuning work done.

Sure wish I could leave zero stars. Where to begin…read more First, when you are paying for a "butler" ski rental service, you would expect that upon providing rider information as requested by the company, it would provide clients with the setup appropriate for their specific parameters. Nope. Instead, my wife got a board that was the wrong size, with missing binding screws, and bindings that didn't even fit the board or the boots she was provided. It took three separate visits to resolve, wasting multiple days on the hill. Second, given the above errors, you would expect the problem to be resolved quickly and professionally. Also nope. Instead, my wife was told "maybe your husband has the right screwdriver." I generally don't travel with a set of Phillips heads, obviously. Then, when a rude and unprofessional manager named Vanessa came by to deal with the problem, my wife asked what the solution might be for her being set up with a board that -- according to this same manager -- was inappropriate. Vanessa's helpful response was to suggest that we "buy your own rig." We were also told that snowboards are sized solely based on weight, without regard to foot size, which is of course absurd in addition to being wholly incorrect. In short, this is a ski rental business that suggests its clients buy their own equipment when they are called out for failing to provide the right gear. That should tell you everything you need to know.

This place was awesome for renting our snowboarding gear! We had Kevin (KP) help us out with fitting our boots and boards - as beginners he took the extra time to talk us through how the boots should fit, ensuring we had the correct size. He also took time to set up our board specifically for how we would be riding (universal for dad, regular for me, goofy for my friend) and to our shoulder size. He couldn't have been more helpful, and the prices couldn't have been more reasonable! Unfortunately, we did have one bad experience when we came in a few days before our rental was up to add an extra day on the end. The employee - Raleigh - was beyond rude to myself and my father, charging us more than any other employee in the store and getting visibly agitated with our questions about clarifying why the price had increased so much. It's a shame that such a wonderful place had such a bad attitude, but thankfully the other employees were friendly and helpful and made us feel comfortable! Despite the bad experience, these guys still deserve 5 stars - we felt like family by the end of our trip! read more

After paying $240 for three demos I decided on a pair to buy. Unfortunately, by that time they were out of stock on the pair I wanted. I was told they would get them in the fall. Late in the fall I called to ask if they had them in stock. They said yes. I said great. I will come in and buy them. " I get $240 off of the purchase price, right?" They said wrong! That was only for last year's models. I explained that last year's model I wanted to buy was out of stock and I was told you would have them in the fall. They refused to honor the deal. Btw, my wife and I both bought our ski boots here and we are happy with them. The young guys here that work the floor are great. The decision not to honor the discount came from management. I will never shop here again.
