The service I received on my bike was second to none. They went above and beyond what was needed. Their price was almost to resonable. They serviced both our bikes. Amazing Job. read more

It's not the same stay away Miss the team of Stan Dan and Dickie.....new owners could care less about service or their word offer on price then change their minds the next day. Too bad. It there are many alternatives up North read more

I needed a pair of skis mounted for my son and was pleasantly surprised that the crew at Mountain Sports Lab (Stan and Dan's) were not only able to spot mount, but were also willing to heat mold my other son's ski boot liners while we waited. Sara and her team went out of their way to provide exceptional service. Highly recommend. read more

We were passing through town while traveling in our 5th wheel trailer, and needed an adjustment to the derailleur on my mountain bike. Most of the shops in town wanted us to leave the bike for 3-4 days, but Ben was able to slip us in on the go for a quick adjustment. Did a great job and the charge was minimal. Very pleased. read more

Bear in mind this business changed owners within past two years and is no longer owned and operated by Stan and Dan. Hours have changed, brands have changed, focus has changed. This is no longer a shop for racers. I feel bad for longtime employees affected by these changes from the top. However after shopping here for decades our family gave up and we will not be back. read more

This place used to be the best -- not anymore. I've bought several pairs of boots with them over the years, back starting with when I was racing in college. this time, I couldn't get anyone to help me because they were closing in 25 minutes and clearly no one could be bothered- despite there being 4 employees available and no one else shopping. after I left, I looked it up and saw they have new owners. I'll be shopping elsewhere now. read more

Boot fitting did not live up to reputation at all. Bought new boots in 2019. Salesman / boot fitter was lackluster at best; he hurried through the process. Turned out the fit sucked. I took the boots back in the following July thinking surely they would have more time to spend on proper fit but "we don't do boot fitting in July." Took them back again the following season for a re-fit. Guy packed so much stuff in the boots it made my feet cramp up and I had to rip much of it out. After suffering another blister on my heal that ripped right off (think raw skin), I bought new boots at a different shop and they fit like slippers, done right the first time. 0% chance I will ever buy boots at Stan and San's again. It turned out to be an expensive mistake. Their reputation as premier boot fitters is junk. read more

What I love about Stan & Dans is that it's family owned and that the staff always makes you feel welcomed/appreciated as soon as you walk through their doors! They're also very knowledgable and are actual skiers, boarders, hikers and bikers like yourself. They make any buying experience there super easy. Prices are comparable to other sporting goods shops in town, and they usually have very good sales on outerwear or accessories. Equipment can be a bit pricey, but they allow you try anything before buying and really stand by their products. They also just extended the store actually last season and added a new section dedicated for mountain bikers. Huge selection to choose from and very well done. You'll be sure to find everything you're looking for. Overall, Stan & Dans has been practically a tradition for us every time we're in the area. You can always count of them to find what you need and provide any repairs/tuning to your equipment quickly/affordably. I highly recommend checking them out and I know you'll feel the same way too after visiting! read more

Scheduled a 2:30 boot fitting appointment. They required a $75.00 on-line deposit. Showed up a 2:15 and checked in at the front desk at 2:20. They asked me to wait in the boot area and someone would call me. After an hour wait, I went back to the front desk and advised no one ever called and I was leaving. She apologized and asked if I wanted to re-schedule. I said no. She said "I wish I knew you were there". I thought that was the check-in process was for. I was looking forward to buying a pair of boots there and left disappointed. You should really work on your system to ensure you keep your end of the reservation bargain. You can take the reservation but not keep the reservation. Not a fan. read more

I was in the area and my friend wanted me to pick up his skis. They closed at 5 and I couldn't be there until 5:20 pm. I called. They were very polite and stayed longer, past closing hours so I could pick up the skis! Above and beyond service! Thank you Stan & Dans! read more

Stan & Dan Sports is the best place I could have possibly gone to buy beginner ski equipment. I had only been on the slopes a few times, and with rental equipment, and I didn't know the first thing about buying boots and skis. Because of this, I felt very vulnerable as a shopper because I knew I didn't know any better. I knew that if I chose the wrong store, I could be in a bad position. Fortunately, I picked the right store. We stopped in to Stan & Dan's after seeing positive reviews on Yelp. After a short wait, I was helped by an associate. He noted that I was a beginner and took his time to not only explain my options for skis and boots, but explain WHY they were good options and going into detail about boot flexibility, ski length, waxes and maintenance. We spent a whole hour trying on different boots and going through the silly newbie questions I had -- he answered each question as if it were the most perfectly normal question in the world. Another thing I'd like to note in my review is that the associate was very knowledgeable about the brands of equipment the store sold, where they came from, how long they had been around and how reputable they were. He never pushed any one brand on me. And the store had a great selection of clothing and equipment from local or small businesses, which reflects really good character overall. I was totally clueless before I came in, but I walked away feeling confident with my purchase and excited to go skiing. When I put on my new skis and boots at the ski range, they felt wonderful and I had a very comfortable day of skiing. Very happy with my skis and very happy with my experience. I strongly recommend going to Stan & Dan's if you're a new skier. I will return when I've grown into a better skier. (Turns out the associate who helped me was Stan himself!) read more

Purchased ski boots here and was experiencing pain while skiing. Brought them back and they switched me to a different brand and I still had issues. They worked on them, built up my arch etc and now I have zero pain! I have tricky foot issues so I was impressed they were able to solve all my problems. Friendly and patient staff. Will be making all of our ski purchases here from now on. read more

Stan & Dans! Definitely the best place that I could have chosen 2 purchase my new setup. Such a great place and such friendly people. Dicky was the kindness and most knowledgeable gentleman! Helped guide me right into what I needed! And I can't forget Stan. Again so friendly and kind. Definitely worth the 18 hour drive! read more

Stan & Dan Sports - Amazing new gear sold by some of the most knowledgeable men in the ski business!! - Sporting Goods Near Me - North Conway, New Hampshire

Came in to buy poles and a cowl. I was helped quickly and everyone was super friendly. I will absolutely be back!

HIGHLY recommend going to Stan & Dan for any of your ski needs!! I've been dealing with pain in my right foot for 3 seasons - since I bought new boots. Foot goes numb, like skiing on broken toes, when foot comes out of boot it's like a blow torch was taken to it. I have a wider right foot - good news is that I was in the right size boot for me. Better news - they could stretch my boot in the tongue and toe area to relieve my issue -- result - GAME CHANGER!! Hit the slopes 6 times over February break - pain free. They know their stuff. Great experience - no fluff. Perfect. Go see them - you won't regret it. read more

Terrible! The women was very rude and condescending. I walked in looking for a helmet for my daughter and the sales women looked me up and down, didn't even acknowledge me to say it will be a minute because she was working with another couple. Then when I asked if anyone else was there to help she was very rude and basically made fun of me for not know the type of helmet i needed. We ended up walking out she was so rude. read more

The best shop for buying boots, hands down. My wife had salesman Dicky assist her and he was honest and straight forward and sold her a great pair of boots. read more

This is the best place for ski equipment. Professional and know what to look for to get you the best fitting ski boots. I would have to echo Jill's review below. read more

Stan and Dan's knows ski boots, and is one of the best places to get customized service. If you want cheap, go elsewhere, and get what you pay for. If you want service and customized fit, go here. read more

Always GREAT service! They can help you with anything you need and always have a good answer for you. The shop can get a little busy at times, but it is well worth the wait. They pay attention to you and get you into the correct equipment for your own needs, not just to sell you something. Their prices are equivalent to anywhere else, and they stand behind all of their products. This is the only ski shop I will use for all of my important ski purchases!! read more

Dan is an amazing boot expert. I have dealt with ill fitting boots, heel pain and ankle pain. I had custom foot beds made and bought two pairs of boots at another supposedly great place in NH in the past 4 years. At the recommendation of a PSIA instructor I drove 2.5 hours from MA to see Dan. It was worth the approximately 2 hours for the first fit and one additional visit because I am now able to ski all day, out west and in NE with no pain and a perfected stance. I recommend Dan if you want an excellent boot fit. read more

My boyfriend who was only skiing for the second time rented skis from you. The skis were not calibrated correctly and on his send run he fell and the skis did not come off. Because of this he has had 3 surgeries and his life will never be the same again. This error has costs us thousands of dollars and because of the waiver he signed we have no recourse. I get that skiing is a dangerous sport but the weekend before at another shop the skis fell off him every time he fell. As a beginner skier which we told them several times he was the skis should have released. His compound fracture and other brakes due to the fall have changed his life for the worse. The technicians doing the calibration are taking the life of new skiers in their hands If anyone can prevent this by reading my post , well at least they may not go through this. It has been 9 months and he still is on crutches. Again this is a life altering event that could have been avoided. Check with anyone you rent from to ensure accuracy, we wish we had and not put our trust in this company. read more

I am writing this because... my boots are 7 yrs old and I plan to replace them before next season... My feet have changed a lot in 7 years. I went in and talked to Dicky, who did not try to sell me their over stock... He customized (punched) the shells of my old boots to fit better and replaced the foot bed... all for a fair price, especially considering the difference it made to the fit of my old boots.. now I can wait until they are fully stocked in September and get the best possible fit. You will be hard pressed to get this level of service anywhere, in any industry! Go to Stan and Dans in North Conway. read more

Fantastic service. A sales associate/boot fitter worked with me for over three hours to not only pick out the right boots, but adjust the insole to make them comfortable. After skiing on them for two weeks, there was a pinch point, and I returned and worked with another boot fitter to fix the issue. I love my boots now. I love the skis they recommended too. Overall a great experience. read more

I checked in here yesterday for new boots and a tune up, based on the fact that S & D consistently get 5 stars ... so here are 5 more stars. Great customer service, great product Great business read more

My wife and I recently bought hybrid bikes at Stan & Dan's. I thought the service was outstanding and they gave us a great deal as well. They took their time to hear what we were looking for and did not try to up-sell us. They were very helpful and knowledgeable about the bikes. I really can't think of a reason I would want to go anywhere else. I will be back in the fall to purchase new ski boots as well. They have a great reputation in the North Conway area but their service absolutely lived up to it! read more

Absolutely the best customer service around. I made a half dozen phone calls trying to figure out a Thule rack and storage box system for my car small and corporate establishments and it seemed no one could figure out how to put a system together for me. I called Stan and Dan's they not only figured out the system but hunted down of the parts they were out of at another local shop, encouraged me to buy it there (I needed the system right away) and then helped me install the whole thing. In addition to exceptional, friendly, can do customer service their staff gave me a full education in Thule systems. I walked away feeling more knowledgable, capable of using the equipment I purchased and fortunate they we have local business owners like Stan and Dan in our valley. read more

Only place to go per all of my ski friends. I was very pleased with the service and they fit my very fat calves and made sure that I always enjoyed my ski day :) read more

I finally got around to learning how to ski this winter! I picked up a cheap set of used skis and boots somewhere else, but i realized pretty quickly that while the skis were fine, the boots were not. They were killing my shins. Everyone I asked said Stan and Dan is the best boot fitters around so that's where I went. I was approached by Dickie who asked me few questions about my skiing abilities and habits, took some measurements of my feet and explained it would take him a few minutes, but he had a couple boots in mind he wanted me to try out. As I waited I looked around and was a little concerned about the prices I saw on some of the boots. As a new skier I wasn't ready to spend $600 or more on boots. Dickie returned with a pair of Salomon boots that fit like a dream. Wait, that's not entirely true. The left boot was a little uncomfortable at the top of my foot so he took it out back to form it bit and it was perfect on the 2nd try. Surprisingly, these boots were the least expensive of all the ones I saw on display so I'm really grateful they didn't try to put me in something I didn't need just to make a bigger sale. Dickie told me to grab my skies so he could fit my boots to them and I've been skiing happily ever after with no more shin pain! I'm pretty sure I'll be wanting a pair of new skies next winter and I won't hesitate to come back to Stan and Dan! read more

Dan is a God! I am an aggressive skier and have a tricky foot to fit with prolapsed ankles. He always takes his time (so be prepared!!) for a precision fit. Cannot recommend more highly! We drive a long way despite the many options nearby, but there are no better boot fitters around! Over the years we have brought along several friends who are now fans as well. Thanks guys!! read more
