Skiing is who we are
We were established almost 75 years ago by John Monod, a Swiss mountain guide and ski instructor. Quality outdoor gear is what our brand was built upon since 1949.
Sure can! When you purchase both skis and bindings from us, we mount for free! Once you place your order, one of our customer service associates will reach out with needed info. If you purchase skis only, you must be able to come by the store with your boots and bindings for mounting. We will not accept bindings by courier.
Skis count as an oversized item therefore we will charge a flat rate of $21 on top of your selected shipping method on every order. For more information about shipping costs, see our shipping policy here.
