Customers are very welcome to use their own equipment and our staff are on hand to give you advice on suitability where required.
We do provide a ski/board repair service at the Centre if you want to get your equipment checked over by one of our highly qualified Ski Technicians. More details can be found at servicing section.
We recommend that you wear a couple of thin base layer tops and leggings / joggers, light weight outdoor trousers. Please do not wear jeans as they become very restrictive when wet and cold.
