GEAR DISCOUNTS
An ideal compromise between price and performance, this range is only one season old so plenty of life left, and a great deal at 35% off for anyone from beginner to advanced level.
Of course, you can’t expect quite as much in terms of feedback, response and liveliness from these one season old skis as you would from a new model, but our Value skis are by no means past their sell-by date.
There’s still plenty of strength in the flex and camber and of course the skis have all been properly serviced since new so the bases glide well and the edges are still pretty sharp.
Expect some scratches on the top sheet – but that makes no difference at all to the performance of the skis, and is a small price to pay for a cheaper deal.

'COMPARES WITH MOST WEBSITES HIGH END GEAR'
TOP TIP
SKI RENTAL SCAMS
Be very wary of websites that boast 'high quality gear etc' - this more than often means nothing and you certainly should'nt expect new, high end skis - if it's going to be new it would say so!
