My husband had a great experience renting a board from this place and the whole process was very smooth. It was very close to our hotel and it's conveniently located at the bottom of the mountain which made returning the board easy. Lots of parking available. Prices were decent and the staff there were very helpful and approachable. Shout out also to Finn who helped me tune up my board. Would definitely come back here again if we ever needed to rent boards! read more

Great service, even better prices! The rental process is super quick and smooth. I was in and out of there in 10 minutes. Their prices are super reasonable as well. I got the premium ski package for around $30! The premium package included skis fit for bunny, intermediate, and black diamond skiing, boots, and poles. Drop-off was also extremely easy as well. This entire operation is just wonderful. I love that they have friendly staff, great prices, and an easy rental process. A truly well-oiled machine! read more

We had a wonderful experience renting here! It was affordable and my ski boots were literally brand new. They are good down to earth guys that will take care of you. We tried to purchase the equipment insurance and they said "as much as we want to sell it to you, you really won't need it!" I love it when people don't just take your money because they can. We are beginners so we weren't going to be skiing near rocks or through trees. Great location, great dudes - thanks Eric!! read more

First, I have been a supporter of this business since my oldest daughter was 3 years old. I get season rentals every year for both my daughters. It has been a tradition for us to support this shop. Why? I always liked the employees here and the fact that the place is more old school than the more popular shops. My daughter actually tripped on his badly deteriorated concrete entrance and scraped up her hands and hip this week, but still, I like supporting them. I always felt like we were doing the small business a solid. It has become nostalgic to us. I would send family members there and promote the shop to all my friends and urge them to go here instead of the more popular Sports Den, Lift House, mountain shops, etc. This all dramatically changed this afternoon when an altercation looked like it could have turned physical with the assumed owner (Eric). I am still in shock at how a long-time supporter of this business was treated today. I took my 4 year old daughter up for the first time this season today, and she had a lesson. Our instructor (30+ years' experience) told me her boots were way too big. This was no biggie to me as I knew we could just quickly stop by the shop on our way home and swap out the boots. I have actually had setup issues a couple times before, and though it makes the day tough, Wasatch has always fixed the problem and it was no big deal to me to keep supporting them. When I arrived at the shop with my 4-year old, only the owner (Eric) was there. I was not upset or even annoyed when I walked in. I told him that the boots were way too big, and I needed to swap them out. He instantly got defensive and acted like a total jerk and said, "you guys tried them on and accepted them, we didn't just give you boots that are way too big". I was confused because he got so upset. I said I was just trying to get some boots that fit because our ski instructor said they were way too big. He continued to be a total jerk in front of my 4 year old to the point I finally asked him, "are you serious? what is with the attitude. I just need to get boots that fit". He told me that I need to "take responsibility for accepting boots that didn't fit". Again, all I wanted was to swap out boots. I didn't care that they gave us boots that were too big. Some more words were said, and he told me "quit giving me the stink eye with your little eyes (I am Asian BTW so not sure what that was about - I will give him the benefit of the doubt here but very ignorant)". He was mounting the new boots at this point and just wouldn't let it go as he was saying, "we obviously don't get along. I don't like you and you don't like me". Still, I was confused, and now getting angry, as to why this business owner was such a jerk to a supporter. I kept quiet for the sake of my daughter. I took my daughter to the car because she told me she was scared of him. I went back in and had some more choice words for him. One of his nice employees who has helped me before came in at this point. Now, I let him know about how many years I have supported and promoted his rundown (said other words) shop and rundown equipment and couldn't believe what an a** he was. He told me, "give me back my f-ing skis, tell your family and friends to bring back their skis too! I don't need any of them!!" He was acting like he wanted me to get physical with him at this point. Thank God I am older and wiser now. I left the shop before something bad happened and to him telling me to F-off multiple times. If he is not a jerk, he had the worst day ever or is on drugs/meds. His behavior was so strange. Don't get me wrong; I had some strong words for him too, but I have also been a great CUSTOMER to him and did not deserve that treatment today. It is sad and shocking. I will be letting my family and friends, and anyone else know, that Eric does not need their business as he told me. If he treats customers this way, I would hate to know how he treats his nice employees. It's too bad it took years to find the owner was such a jerk. You can see it in his replies to comments here. I just wanted to swap out boots today. read more

The best tunes in town for the best price. I trust them with my ski's at the beginning of every season and I always will.

Best rental experience I've ever had. The staff was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. We were in and out of there with rentals in 15 minutes perfectly fit to our boots. Will definitely rent from here again next time I'm back in the area. read more

I went to this place because they recently had a Groupon deal for ski rentals. They're located right on Wasatch Blvd on the left after exiting 6200 South off of I-215. It's a convenient location right before you hit either of the canyons. They're located in what looks like a double wide trailer and they're in front of a rock quarry so its easy to miss. It looks like its the office for the rock quarry. But because of that they weren't crazy busy any of the times I've been in. They have the normal cheap rental ski rentals which were in the low to mid twenties for ski's, boots and poles. They also have sport skis they rent for about 10 more. I recently rented the more expensive sport skis mainly because they asked and I'd never rented nicer skis. It was only a few bucks more so I thought I didn't have much to lose. I wasn't terribly happy with them because I was essentially just given the first pair they had availble. I don't think they were all mountain skis and I wasn't really asked what I was planning to ski. I made do but, I would have enjoyed the cheaper skis more for what i wanted to ski. I'd make sure if you rent sport skis that they're good for your planned type of skiing. One thing that was nice was they seemed to prefer you pay when you return them. I say thats good because it pushed you out the door as fast as possible. Alot of times at other rental places you can spend 30 minutes getting your skis and paying for them. They still take an imprint of your credit card. This is slightly horrifying that places still do this and its potentially against Payment Card Industry standards depending on how much a year you do in card payments. And even when you don't think about that, there's still fraud and copying of cards to be concerned about. They gave the imprint back to me when I returned and payed for the rental later in the day. They also have a limited selection of goggles, glasses and demo equipment to buy. I'd recommend stopping by here if you need a rental close to the Cottonwood Canyons area. Its quick to pickup and drop off and the prices are about the same or less than the other guys around town. read more

Great prices and service. I rented equipment for me and my son recently and can't say enough positive about my experience. I called a few times before coming out as I have never skied this area before and I had a lot of questions. Nikki was extremely friendly, helpful, and patient on the phone. When we got to town and went to rent equipment Nikki was there and patiently talked us through our options for equipment. She gave me a few boot and ski options and helped my son chose a a snowboard. I had to come back and swap boots after the first day as I picked the some that were to tight. My son decided to swap his snowbird. They happily swapped the equipment out for us. One of his toe straps snapped on the second day and so we had to go back again. Once again, they replaced the strap with no questions asked. Eric helped me out during the return process and it went very smooth. I will definitely use Wasatch Ski and Snowboard rentals if I return to the area. read more

I went to WSC based on a recommendation from a friend. I knew his recommendation meant they'd be the cheapest, but not much else. Having seen their quarry location on GoogleEarth and the rather, um, "modest" condition of their building, I must say my expectations were not high. However, at the end of our trip, I was singing their praises. If you're staying in SLC area and skiing Alta, Brighton, Snowbird, and Solitude, the location of WLC can't be beat. We arrived at the shop at 8 am (opening time) on a Saturday morning. Granted, this was a slow period in SLC skiing because the snow in late January wasn't great (for locals, anyway. . . plenty great for an east-coaster like myself). Little traffic and the three of us skiers were outfitted and out the door in about 30 minutes. We hit the lift lines at Snowbird by 9 am (opening time). We made many stops at WLC during our four days of skiing to get longer skis, try different boots, get a bigger helmet, buy new goggles. Each time we stopped, the service was immediate and friendly. We joked about "missing them" whenever we drove by without stopping. We rented the "Sport" package, which is their middle-of-the-road. Totally fine all-mountain skis. The boots didn't fit me well, so I was upgraded to a "Performance" boot at no cost. . . this made all the difference as my feet were never cold or uncomfortable again. I did not check out the skis in their "Performance" package. The gear wasn't the newest, but everything worked well and I really enjoyed the people that worked there. And, yes, they were the cheapest. Plus, I love the "pay when your return" practice. I was an initial skeptic, but WLC will be my go-to place for my next SLC ski trip. read more

The price for a ski rental at Ski Connection is less than at the ski resorts, which is the basic reason we went there to rent skis. We arrived at about 8:40 am on a Saturday morning. Granted, this is a busy time for any ski rental shop, but the amount of time it took to rent 4 pairs of skis and boots, and to pay for ski lift tickets in a separate transaction was extraordinary -- about 90 minutes from start to finish. While there were two people (sometimes three), handling the fitting of the boots, there was only one person, who I assume was the owner, who could do the most critical and time consuming job of adjusting the ski bindings to the boots. Needless to say, there was a huge backup of people who had their boots and were waiting for the binding adjustment from this one person. He was working as fast as he could, but there were easily 10 people ahead of us waiting for this one person to do the adjustment -- it took a terribly long time before he could get to us. In addition, even coming in at 8:40 am, and with many people coming in after us, there was already a shortage of boots, particularly in children's sizes. Our kids were first given poor equipment that did not fit, and the nice person at the boot counter quietly whispered that it was "antiquated." When it was obvious that it would not work, he did come up with better equipment for my kids. Given a peak ski day, I might have forgiven all this. But what I found most concerning was that when it came time to pay for our lift tickets, after having already been in the store for nearly one hour, we had to endure another 30 minute wait, because the girl at the cash register had absolutely NO experience whatsoever, and kept having to stop and wait for the owner to come and help her with even the simplest thing, such as how to open a cash register to make change, or void a transaction when she entered the wrong amount . It took her 15 minutes to ring up the prior customer's minor $5 transaction, and then 15 minutes to ring up our ski lift tickets. I don't understand why one would put a completely inexperienced person to run the critical operation of the cash register on such a busy day -- it just wasn't the right time to do on-the-job training. Everyone at the store, including the person I assume is the owner, as well as the girl running the cash register, was well meaning and apologetic about the delays, but the experience significantly reduced the amount of time we had to ski on this particular day. My view is that this would be a good place to rent if you can get there the prior afternoon (after 4 pm), when they are pretty quiet and the selection of equipment is ample, but not a great choice if circumstances only permit a potential customer to come to the store on a busy weekend morning. read more

Eric is extremely helpful and efficient and somehow managed to have grace under fire with a packed ski shop and being the only tech working at the time. Very grateful for his knowledge and recommendations. We've had good experiences coming here. read more

Right on the way to Brighton and Solitude. Had everything I needed, friendly, and helpful. Good advice about where to ski.

I love the convenience of the location on the way to the Cottonwood Canyons. Most importantly the staff were so friendly and had my kids outfitted and ready to go quickly. read more

DON'T GO TO WASATCH SKI CONNECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! got a new pair of skis line shadows and took them to Wasatch to have them mounted they used a pow ski jig on it and the mount came out awful. the bindings where over 5 mm off width wise when i took it to multiple shops they all said that it was a horrible mount and that the ski could not be mounted in the same spot again which was the factory mid sole point. so they ruined my skis if i want them straight they have to mount them forward and when Wasatch said they would fix it he just moved one toe cap and god knows what he did under the binding to the ski. when i asked for a refund on the skis that he just ruined he said i was crazy and he had 30 years experience and told me i didn't know what i was talking about. funny that all 3 shops i took the skis to said they should reimburse me for ruining the skis Don't rent or get tuning done here they don't know what there are doing if they cant mount skis right with 30 years experience then sure as hell cant maintain safe skis for rental if you value your body or skis go somewhere else read more

We rented skis, boots, and poles for my 14 year old stepson this last weekend. The skis and poles were fine but the boots were falling apart so badly they were hurting my stepson's feet, so we had to rent boots from the ski resort (Deer Valley). My dad is a ski tech at Deer Valley so he helped set the skis to the new boots for us and noticed the binding releases were set to two different settings! The worst part is, when we approached the staff with these concerns and asked for a refund, they argued with us and were very rude! read more
