I was here for the "exclusive" locals sale last Saturday and came away with a pair of demo Deathwish Skis at $399. I wanted made in the USA skis in general, and local ones in particular. I also added a pair of Solomon bindings (20% off), with a future discounted boot purchase somewhere on the horizon. When that's done, I'll bring them all back for Moment staff to mount the bindings and adjust the settings. That part and how they ski for me next season may be the subject of a future update. Last season was my first in over 25 years. I enjoyed myself enough at Heavenly (the Boulder parking lot is 20 minutes from my house in Genoa) that I figured that I could financially do better with my own equipment rather than rentals. Of course, I lot has changed equipment-wise in all that time, and I appreciated the friendly and patient Moment staff giving me concise sizing and model advice that I could use and trust immediately. When I arrived just before 10 AM, there was already a line into the demo tent, including folks who were here a lot earlier. After maybe a 20 minute wait, I arrived with previously obtained model and size information (via email and inside) written down. The guy helping me had a couple options, and after weighing the features, I made my choice. As a Senior Intermediate skier (think groomed blue), I'm sure I was outclassed by many of the downhillers here, but Moment staff quickly put me at ease. The background music, plus free foot longs, chips, and sparking water was a nice bonus. read more

Best experience fitting new plug ski boots ever! Moment ski boot-fitting shop has ability to perform all types of high-level custom work like footbeds, punches, grinding, lateral and fore/aft alignment, and even calf width and forward lean modifications. During the assessment process I was actually able to describe my technique improvement goals to Reid and he translated them to modifications that needed to be done to my boots. There was absolutely no marketing hype, just very personalized recommendations based on deep technical understanding of different skiing techniques. Highly recommend, especially for racers, ski instructors, and other people looking for continuous improvement. read more

above and beyond customer service, the guys they have working the shop take their time and treat the skis they're working on as if they are their own. the team is also very knowledgeable on all the products they have which is a great guide to navigate your next purchase. All in All love the locality and craftsmanship of moment skis and will definitely back their products. S/O Bryce read more

Review to follow, wanted to upload the pics Quality/Quantity - 5 stars, and handmade locally. They give you a tour of the warehouse and facility!! Love the local craft beer collaborations with Revision, Battle Born, etc. Discovered this brand while on the chairlift on day 1 at Mt Rose. The person next to me shared how great these skis were and how it is made locally. As you know, I like to support the locals. Atmosphere - See pictures, including all the pictures I took during the tour. Cool and a very spacious shop. Dog friendly. All the customers were drinking beer while shopping... Open 4 days a week from 8am to 6pm Tuesday to Friday. Nice long weekends to ski...? Limited parking, but still able to get the last space. Service - 6 stars. Tyler, the front of house manager, was so professional and patient. He offered us a tour and we gladly accepted. We discussed my skiing preference, and he made a few suggestions. Then he gave us an independent magazine "Blister" so we can read more on their skis and bindings. Free demo days starting in January. I believe he mentioned lifetime tune ups/adjustments on the skis/bindings? As long as you buy from them and are the original owners. Price - Starts at approximately $749 for skis and $99 for bindings. The skis and bindings I was looking at were more on the $1K side... I do not need new shoes, so I did not price them out. Owner Comment - Congrats on your 19 years of success since 2003 and now being the #1 Largest US ski manufacturer?!?! Going to study more and save up; see you soon. read more

Came into to look at some new skis and came out with a brand new pair mounted and ready to go. The folks over at moment are amazing. All super great people who clearly know their stuff when it comes to skiing. Once I bought my beer I got handed a cold beer and a nice chair, almost bought another pair because of the treatment. Plus their skis look sexy and ride even sexier. I am definitely a lifelong moment fan after my time. read more

Moment Skis - Ski & Snowboard Shops Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Fantastic place to demo and shop for skis. The service is above par. The employees, in my case Gunner, know the equipment they sell. The key is to work with one employee, they will get to know you, your likes and dislikes. I had the best performing skis of my life the other day. Take the time, demo a few pair, you'll be happy buying the best skis of you life. read more

I do want to preface the fact that I do not own any moment skis (hopefully one day ) but I went to their season opening/brew night. It was a great time and they truly put in the work and art into their skis. The event had two food trucks, daddy's tacos and potluck and other vendors came too such as Deso, arcade belts, mount rose, UNR's ski club and a couple other ski vendors. The beer vendors that came were all the best local brews such as lead dog, revision, Schussboom, and Fat Tire. They showed guests a behind the scenes tour of the making if the skis and you can tell the precision, the knowledge and the care that goes into these skis is phenomenal. The staff are super nice and know their stuff. They even had a raffle and played some beautiful home movies of people shredding the mountains. read more

Best skis and made in the USA. They have a killer variety, and they all rip, I've currently got 6 pairs. I've hit a ton of rocks and they are bullet proof. I highly recommend visiting the factory. Oh! And Fasa is the man for boot fitting, he's super knowledgeable and patient which is huge for dialing in boots. I'm pretty sure you can still go in and check out skis to demo before you buy which is awesome. So cool to have the best skis made right here in Reno. read more

I visited Moment Skis shop and factory last week to demo a pair of their skis. From prior communication via their online customer chat representative, I became interested in trying out a pair of their Sierra ski model for all-mountain. Moment does not charge for demoing their skis. You must contact them to make sure they have the model and length of your choice on hand for the day that you want to demo ski. They'll take down your drivers license #. You then go to one of the ski resorts of your choice. Mt Rose is close by at about 32 miles away. Ski and test them on snow. Bring them back at the end of the afternoon. I was impressed by the knowledgeable service. If you're looking for some exceptionable skis handmade locally, do find time to come by Moment and see the fine skis manufactured here. If you decide that you want to purchase a pair,they have bindings that they'll mount right onto your new skis while you wait! No need to run them to another sports shop to get them slope-ready. They will also tune and wax any skis that buy from them...just drop them by (Now ~that's~ good service!) Their shop also sell other ski accessories that aren't made by them. You can find some ski boots, socks, gloves, beanies, and assorted cool knick knacks made by Dakine and other familiar snowsports gear makers. read more

Hands down the best ski company I have ever dealt with. I have been riding on old Moment Tahoe's for a long time and grew out of them. On Black Friday this year, I decided to pull the trigger on new Wildcat 108s. I purchased them online, and instead of shipping them I just decided that it would easier to pick them up in person since I am local. I came to the facility on a Saturday to get them, and the staff told me they'd be happy to put my bindings on for me but said if I come back during the week they would be able to give me a full tour of the place. So I came back today, gave them my skis to work on, was offered anything I wanted to drink and then taken on a full tour of the facility! When they say hand crafted, they really mean hand crafted. No machine production lines or anything like that..it was one person doing their job at each station. Incredible to learn the whole process! Afterward, sat around chatting with a couple of the employees. They are the most down to earth people and love to talk about anything snow related! I will definitely be a life long customer! Thanks for everything Moment read more

Today I went to Moment ski manufacturing facilities to buy a pair of ski boots. Yeah that's right ski manufacturing facility to buy ski boots. I had the best, most professional, ski boot fitting experience of my life. I am convinced that no one on the face of this Earth can do a better job of fitting ski boots than Jake. Unfortunately the brands that he carried we're not a good match for my feet. So rather than just saying a goodbye he wrote down that manufacturer and model number of ski boots that he felt would resolve my problem. He then told me where to go to purchase them or he could order them for me. Wow! I then took a tour of the manufacturing facility. They are truly hand-built skis with quality materials. I couldn't believe all the steps required to manufacture a pair of skis. Later this year I plan to demo a pair. read more

Since dropping by and skiing on there PB& J model last year. I purchased a set for myself. I'm so impressed not only with the ski's but the entire company. These are great people, everyone I've interacted with has nothing but a absolute pleasure to talk with. The Ski's are just flat out fun, in every respect. I think my new PB&J might be the best All Mountain I've ever owned. I'm considering another model from Moment for the upcoming season. I'm trying out a few pair this season. There Demo program is like no one else's. Just come by and check out a pair. No cost. Oh by the way with a purchase of ski's come lifetime care. Tuning, waxing, including edge sharpening. There community leaders minded, in fact. These dudes sponsored David Wise, before he won Gold at his first X Games and later of course in the Olympic's. He still skiing and winning on Moments. If your interested at all in Skiing then, you owe it to yourself to stop by and meet these guys, am positive you won't be disappointed. As well as amazing ski's, they have a full service ski shop. Custom boot fitting, bindings and Moment Ski Poles. Sweet Ski Gear Too featuring brands like FlyLow, brands that are designed for ski and snow board people by folks that have a need for functional gear on the mountain. read more

Hands down the best ski company! I have had on going troubles with ski boots for years, some days I couldn't bare to ski more than 2 hours without being in excruciating pain. Fasa and Luke dialed in my gear better than I've ever experienced in my lifetime of skiing. I purchased a whole new set up including skis, bindings, boots and poles. The service was quick and extremely professional. I would recommend moment to anyone!! read more

Great skis, great people to work with. My wife loves her Hot Mess set up! The quality of the product is excellent and she is looking forward to many awesome experiences! Thanks to the Moment Team! read more

By far the best ski shop experience around. Jake is extremely helpful and will get your boots and feet feeling right in no time. These skis are made with care to ski the way you want to ski with top tier performance. read more

I've been skiing on Moments for years. They are hands down the best all mountain ski I've ever been on. They cut through crud, rip through the trees and smoothly transition to groomers. I needed new boot and got a recommendation to go to Moment. Jake is an awesome boot fitter! He knows his stuff and works hard to get you in the right boot. Thanks Moment for hooking me up! I can't wait for this winter! read more

If you're ever in the Reno/Tahoe area, the Moment Skis factory is a must visit. Most importantly, they make amazing handmade skis and have a wide range of offerings that will fit just about any skier's needs. But beyond that, the factory experience is great. Go take a factory tour to learn how skis are made or just visit the showroom to see their collection of new and classic skis. Fasa (Jake Nelson) is the best bootfitter that I've ever worked with and truly takes the time to get to know your skiing style and make recommendations. If you live or ski anywhere Reno, I'm not sure why you'd buy skis (or boots) elsewhere. So go demo some skis and make sure to bring them beer because somehow the services are all free. read more

Best Birthday Ever!!!! Thanks to the team at Moment for shipping skis to me just in time for my boyfriend's birthday! Great customer service! We discovered Moment at a free demo day. My boyfriend liked the skis so much he now has the Meridian and the Chipotle Banana! read more

The raddest people and the raddest skis. Seriously great showroom and a laid back atmosphere among the employees. They love to talk skiing and they're super knowledgeable and informative. Big shoutout to Fasa especially for the boot fit and advice. Might add more once I get the chance to ride these Wildcats, but I've heard you really can't go wrong with their skis. Made in the USA and worth supporting! read more

stopped by their store the other day to see what they were all about. heard so many great things about their skis. looked like they were manufacturing skis out of a garage. i found it pretty damn cool. i got a complete run down of their skis and ended up walking out with some commander 108s with look bindings mounted in 10 minutes. I was not expecting that!! read more

Just got my first Moments, awesome experience! Took a tour of the factory with Fasa and had an awesome time and can't believe I haven't been there before! Thanks so much! read more

All other ski shops in Reno/Tahoe area are irrelevant. The service and knowledge of the staff is second to none and the boot fitter Jake is telling me things I didn't even know existed about how your boots should fit. I wont go anywhere else read more

This is the factory where they press skis, and now snowboards. The showed the premier on the side of the building so it was huge and pretty differently cool, th esound system sucked though!!. I support local, handmade art; be it moment skis and snowboards, or recycled records, or erindonnellyellis.com; ALL based in reno/sparks!! read more

Bought some used skis here and had extremely helpful service and honest opinions from staff member 'Fasa'. Skis are cleaned up real well and there is a clear emphasis on customer service and supporting the local community. Wouldn't trust stepping in to any other ski. read more

Moment is an awesome local Reno/Tahoe business and the workers are super helpful! Jake or 'Fasa' was super helpful in getting us on some new meridians and taking care of the tunes, binding swaps, and waxing as well! Will always recommend and stay as a long term customer! read more

I picked up a new pair of skis at the factory today, and while waiting to have the bindings mounted Logan gave my wife and I a tour. While informal, the tour was super cool and informative. Everyone there was great, helpful and most importantly... they make the best skis on the planet. read more

Seriously you guys - this is the biggest/baddest/bestest little ski shop anywhere around. The service, knowledgeability, and hopsitality are unparalleld. If you're in the market to upgrade your setup, you should do yourself a favor and check these guys out. I promise you won't regret it. They've got an amazing lineup of models that encompass just about every skier type & snow condition. Worried about parting with your hard earned dough? They've got an easy payment plan! So there's literally no excuses to not check them out & try a pair for free! DO IT!! read more

It's awesome to buy local! These guys are loosey goosey when it comes to customer service, free mounting and waxing with a purchase, skis were done on my 3rd attempt to pick up and no wax. I understand it's early and they did sell me a pair with last years graffics for less. Sparks based for sure. read more

I demoed some Moment Underworld skis at Mt Rose a couple weeks ago and really loved them. The kids that helped me up there said they sold off their demo skis at their retail shop on Marietta. So a couple days ago I headed down to their shop and was pleased that they had a pair of skis in my size at a really fair price. They mounted a set of bindings for me labor-free on the spot. Every employee I met on the mountain and at their retail store was super helpful and super polite and friendly. read more
