I bought new boots from A Racers Edge and was unhappy with the process. Most of the negative…read morereviews seem to be from people who didn't buy new or tried to walk-in without an appointment. I hope my input is more useful for anyone else considering a new purchase, and maybe it can help the shop owner identify some gaps in quality control. *Purchased on 4/7, follow up on 4/11. Hawx Ultra 110 Boa @ $979* I know this store probably encounters a lot of entitled tourists, but that's not who I am. I'm a bit shy and easy going, and sometimes you just don't quite realize how bad an experience was until afterwards. In retrospect I should have bought elsewhere, but was excited to get boots and hit the slopes quickly. That's where I'm coming from and why I went through with a purchase I didn't feel good about. The guy helping me had an attitude. He wasn't flat out rude, but definitely had an air of superiority to him. He's a local, expert skier, combined with a lifetime of experience, and I was just another tourist he had to help. It was a dismissive attitude and every question was answered as if it was a dumb one. He talked to the other workers just as much as he talked to me, if not more. I got the impression the shop owner was not around on those days. He asked me some basic questions without much follow up and made some incorrect judgments based on that limited info. He quickly measured my foot, and told me what I suspected, I have flat low volume feet on the narrow side with some pronation. I told him it makes sense because most of my running shoes are LV stability shoes. He pulled out some fancy, high end boots to try first. They felt good and it was even from a line of boots I had noted as a possible choice while doing my own research. He then pulled out a much stiffer (race?) boot which I knew wasn't going to be good. The 3rd pair was a MV boot which I knew probably wouldn't work either since we knew my foot was LV. To recap, I was asked limited questions, quickly measured, and tried on 3 boots total. The second two seemed to be ones he knew would be wrong for me and push me towards the first more expensive ones. This was nothing like the boot fittings I've heard of. People told me about trying on tons of boots, working to replicate perfect positioning, and spending 2 hours finding their ideal fit. I was in a bit of shock when he seemed finished with me after I tried on the first boots a second time. My fitting was wrapping up after only 30 minutes and no other options were being presented. I ended up paying $900 for a boot that was being sold for $500-600 at every other place I could find. I didn't realize this until I got back to my room and looked it up. Immediate buyer's remorse sunk in. I just didn't have the nerve to return them at that point. I hoped he would make it right during the follow up. I would have been satisfied paying the full MSRP price difference if I was receiving a true boot fitting experience and quality time towards a perfect fit, but I didn't receive either of those things. It's also important to mention that he misquoted the boot for $800 until we reached the register, casually noting the difference. During my follow up I told him my inner ankle bones were rubbing. He said a footbed might help, but he could try one thing first. I saw my opening to mention the price difference. I said "I know I'm paying for your expertise and time, but noticed a $300-400 difference. Do you think you could give me a discount on a footbed or anything to help me feel a bit better about that?" He rudely dismissed it and said "well if you wanna buy the wrong boot somewhere else and bring it here it would cost you hundreds for me to fix it. I quickly dropped it, but disagree with everything he said. I could've easily bought the same boot based on my own research. He didn't do any worthwhile alterations or add any value suggesting a line of boots I was already eyeing. He unscrewed the boot boards and tossed the screws aside, "ah you don't need those." Even if they were not important, I would have preferred he kept them as the manufactured intended or at least saved the screws. He duct taped some inner heal wedges while distractedly chatting with the other workers. The right felt a bit better, but the left felt worse. He replied, "That's not possible cause the inserts make it so your ankle leans the other way now." He didn't try to address the issue any further. The next day I skied for an hour before having to stop and check them. I found the issue... It was completely out of place. The pictures attached show how I found them and the lack of effort in the work. I borrowed tape and fixed them myself. 2 hours wasted on my final day. TLDR; didn't get a proper boot fitting experience, over paid by around 40%, had to fix sloppy alteration work myself, probably got the wrong boot. Overall really bummed at the waste of money and time, but mostly just disappointed I didn't get a real boot fitting experience.

We watched a safety video, signed a waiver, paid, then loaded up in the shuttles for a ride to the Vail Pass starting point. The first mile or so of the ride are switchbacks, so go slowly. Then coast on the straightaway to Copper Mountain. Get a chair to view the ski area. Restaurants and coffee shops are around, plus restrooms. Then ride into Fresco. Be sure to stop at the free museum with the log buildings. So fun! Mornings are cool, so wear long sleeves or a jacket. Jeans or leggings or on warmer days, shorts are fine. Afternoon rides can get rained on. The team at Alpine Sports are helpful and friendly. We recognize their faces after riding for many years. If you do one activity other than hiking, make this ride a must. Reserve your bikes online and get a discount!

You fill out a questionnaire then get escorted to find a helmet then the boot station. I initially went with skis, unfortunately it seemed like no one there was knowledgeable in skiing to give me pointers or to teach me how to get in n out of the skis. A key factor in my foreseeable future. My Fiancé went with snowboarding and said they went into great detail with him about riding and making sure he was comfortable getting in and out his board. One great perk they offer is unlimited swap outs. So I was able to change to snowboarding when skiing wasn't working out as easily as I hoped. They rent everything except goggles so keep that in mind or buy some from amazon. Otherwise, you'll be sending like $40+ on a one time use Note: Ski Boots are horrrribly uncomfortable.

I reserved four e-bikes for Sunday, June 14, and specified bike sizes--including a small bike for…read moreone rider--more than three weeks in advance. When we arrived, there was only one employee working (Mike) and another group ahead of us, so we waited about 15 minutes before the rental process could begin. Once we were helped, we were informed that the small bike we had reserved was unavailable. Mike then spent roughly 30 minutes trying to repair another small bike in the back. After he brought it out, we did a test ride in the parking lot, but the bike immediately displayed an error code. We were then told it would not provide any pedal-assist power. At that point, we gave up on getting a working bike from Breckenridge Ski & Sport and went across the street to another rental shop. Remarkably, they had a properly sized bike ready for us almost immediately. Once we got on the trail, the three bikes rented from Breckenridge Ski & Sport all felt noticeably underpowered compared to the bike from the other shop, which easily outperformed them throughout the ride. The online reservation process was straightforward, but the experience at the store was frustrating and disappointing. Reserving specific bike sizes weeks in advance should ensure those bikes are available and in working condition when customers arrive. I appreciate Mike's efforts to solve the problem, but the lack of preparation and equipment readiness significantly impacted our experience.
