Check equipment = Safe ride

Using board sport equipment requires checks and maintenance. Whether you are purchasing or hiring, bindings, helmets, ski boots, etc. all require specific adjustments in order to ensure you peace of mind when using your equipment.  

Our team is trained every year by the leading brands to ensure you get the best out of your equipment.

When skis, snowboards or snowblades are returned to the shop, they are checked and prepared on modern machines in order to sharpen and treat midsections to ensure you get the very best feeling.  We’re not just any old ski rental shop in Plagne Montalbert, we take great pride in what we do. 

                               

Boot-fitting, a complicated name for a simple principle

The principle of boot-fitting is to enable each person to find the boot perfectly suited to his foot.  To do this, we start by studying your foot from all angles.  We then adjust your ski boot to suit your anatomy and your way of skiing.

 “Thermoforming”: just like slippers !

The shaping of the inner is a crucial step in boot-fitting.  Thanks to our quality equipment, we are able to mould your ski boot inner and adapt it to your foot.  Aches and blisters will disappear as if by magic and you will feel as if you are skiing in slippers.

 Soles at the service of your feet.

In order to offer your feet the very best comfort, we can thermoform your soles.  This operation involves tailoring your soles to suit the anatomy of your feet.  The aim of this is to improve blood circulation and, consequently, to keep your feet warm. Also, you will find that it helps to greatly improve your precision on the slopes.

Servicing and repairs for skis and boards

Waxing and sharpening your edges.  Midsections smoothed with a stone grinder and edges sharpened with a ceramic disc on the trimjet.
