McGrath's Ski & Board Rentals was just okay for me. The process was smooth and easy -- I got there…read moreearly and about 10 minutes later I already had my rental board, which I really appreciated. The staff was easy to deal with and everything went pretty quickly. That said, the snowboard I received was kind of old. You can definitely notice that the boards and bindings have some age on them, and the edges felt worn. They also don't carry fancy or newer design boards, so if you're looking for the latest models or something high-end, this might not be the place. Overall, it's a convenient spot if you just need something quick and functional, but don't expect premium or newer gear.

The ski package (skis, boots, poles) were $30 a person which is like half the price of what the ski resort would have charged.

They even offered so much advice knowing we were just getting started with this hobby. Nico gave us about 2 hours of undivided attention in helping us find the equipment and really took the time to make sure everything was perfect for us including the comfort, design, and value of the equipment. My boyfriend and I both left the store with our own new pair of fitted boots, fully set up skis, poles, helmets, and a bunch of helpful tips. We could definitely tell that he loves what he does and puts a lot of care into his work. Apparently he's experienced in both skiing and snowboarding, so it truly felt like he knew what he was talking about. We'll definitely come back in the future for some more equipment and apparel if we're ever looking for more snow gear.

The store was very crowded and thankfully all the customers were wearing masks. The employees weren't the friendliest and seemed like they didn't want to be there. Got a snowboard + boots for $26 which is similar to other places in the area. However, their equipment is pretty decent as the snowboards they rent out are arbor brand.

Hopefully he wasn't like that to all his customers today cus boy someone is gonna give you a mouthful with how he acted. Should've got his name, but I time stamped this to really narrow it down.

OMGGG..I can not rave enough about this place!!! Ever since a good friend recommended it to me…read moreyears ago, my fam and I have since come back for our EVERY snow need. PF Powder (aka P.F. McMullin Snowboard and Ski Co) is a cute small business ~ literally your one stop shop, specializing in all things ski & snowboard. It's located in Santa Ana in the deserted looking Edinger Business Park. They are definitely known for their discount prices on all winter/snow-related gear, outerwear, and accessories, as well as services like waxing, tuning, and rentals. When you walk in, the store is so neatly arranged and organized, it's super easy to find everything you are looking for. After coming here for so long, I legit just discovered that upstairs houses their "gently used" section, for those looking for an even more affordable option. The workers are super friendly, with a chill vibe. Everyone is knowledgeable & always willing you help you. My lil fam of 4 snowboards every year, so we have come here (year after year) to update our snow outfits, to googles, boots, snow socks, thermals, & beanies. You name it, they have it..AND we've bought it! Even when my kiddies wear younger..babies, we even got sledding/tubing gear here, so they could play in the snow. We really appreciate the affordable prices ~ ranging to discounted ones to more pricey name brands. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Such a cool small business. The workers here give off the hip chill outdoorsy vibe- like they know…read morewhat they're doing, could scale a mountain, and they would never be bothered by anything. We were greeted multiple times stepping into the store and asked if we needed any help. We just came here for a snow jacket to prepare for real cold. The inside has cool decorations, snowboard brands etc kind of like a little wooden fort. Theres even a laddered second floor where they sell 2nd hand items. The store is divided into sections for board care/rentals, they have curtained fitting space and a toilet. They even have helmets and ski shoes. The prices here for snow jackets/gear (have pants too) are definitely cheaper than other name brand outdoor places and good quality (150-200), even cheaper than some outlets (but im not too well versed in brand comparisons so dont quote me if you are seasoned). I I think accessories might be cheaper at outlets?, but its more convenient to get everything in one place. They have toe warmers and google covers. They even have the board conditions for different mountains written on a white board as if you were up there in a resort. It would be great if they had a diagram for beginners of what clothing items/essentials to get including accessories and thermal layers as the store overall is very approachable to a southern californian newbie. The only thing is that it is a bit hole in the wall, parking is a bit confusing as you do look like you're pulling up to an inn. But there is a parking lot and we seemed okay parking there for our time here. Had a good time here, would recommend it to anyone looking to get into winter sports.

I hit a bit of misfortune with my boot, the boa lacing system actually broke while I was on the mountain. I fell a lot (likely attributed to inexperience) and actually fell while boarding the ski lift and the boa broke right off. When I went back to the store, the employees were very gracious and gave me a rain check for the next time I visit. They informed me that it's relatively rare for these to break and I believe it. I still had a great time. It was unlucky, but I'm excited for next time. I spent ~$35 for the boots and board and I was at Snow Valley all day.

It's the largest consumer co-op in the U.S and members only pay a one time fee for a lifetime membership! How sweet can that be! Ok besides that, I was here for the coffee pour over packs. Yes they actually do carry that and these days with the prices of coffee going up why not stock up on a few boxes in case it gets worse! Other than that they carry top brand gear for almost all the outdoor needs. Plus! They have snowboard and bike service for a quick tune up for the weekend or weekday adventures. Service is really good and there's always someone roaming around. And that's my take, Peace

Tom figured it out with a smile and a deep understanding of what causes issues with your feet in ski boots. Patient, totally responsive, and always there for me. I just sent him an email about a piece I broke on my last trip, he called me a half hour later and he's sending me replacement parts, free of charge. Tom's a true ski boot fanatic. He's dedicated to his craft and works hard to get it right. And I ski 100% better in his boots. It's amazing. Thanks Tom!

He will tell you if X is currently making good stuff, or if they changed to a Milesian supplier and are having problems with their heel springs. Tom changed skiing for my wife, so I had him build me some boots. Then he built my mom a pair. I ski the boots Tom built for me everywhere; backcountry, inbounds, boot packing a 45 degree ice chute with crampons....you name it. They are unbelievably dialed. I am riding the ROXA R3 130 TI IR with a freetour tongue. Great ROM, super stiff, and thanks to Tom, super comfortable. Stay away from the popular OC ski shop, especially for boots. Tom is better than Surefoot, better than any place I have dropped into in Mammoth. He knows what he is doing. Grab some custom cork soles, get your boots canted properly, get the type of boot appropriate for your ability and terrain, and get it all from Tom Wohrman. Because once Tom retires....and I hope that is never, but once he does...one of the very last last great boot fitters will be gone and you will have missed your chance for that elusive pair of perfect boots.

Mountain High Winter Sports School is top notch. Super patient and effective instructors. The day I…read morewent with my 4 year old, it was a relatively low crowd day and warm (70 F). My daughter's first time on a snowboard and the snow was a success thanks to the skill and professionalism of Instructor Trevor D. Her two hour lesson flew by thanks to his ability to make the activity interesting, low-stakes, and super fun! I highly recommend private lessons for the smaller kids here especially since they are 1:1. On another note, the runs that day were well-groomed and decent conditions for an afternoon. There's a current flex lift ticket deal where for each adult ticket a child ticket is complimentary is a sweet deal. While you do have to pay $30 for main parking lot at West Resort, much of the quality and excellent service has held up. The dirt lot before the main ramp is still free. You just have to walk up the hill or take the stairs.

This was my first visit to Mt. High this year, and I have to say I was a little disappointed. I…read morecame on a busy Saturday right after back-to-back SoCal storms, so I expected the resort to be packed -- and it was -- but it honestly didn't feel prepared for the crowd. One of the most-used lifts on the west side wasn't working, which caused a lot of congestion. Traffic getting into the resort was rough, and the transport buses from the east to west parking lots weren't operating. There was no announcement about this, so my friends ended up walking from east to west parking, which was frustrating. On top of that, we experienced a fireplace being out of gas. They eventually got it lit, but by that time it was late, really cold, and we were about to head out because our lift tickets had expired. Overall, the resort has potential, but I felt unprepared for the crowd and the logistics were poorly communicated. Hopefully, they can improve operations and better handle busy days in the future.
