Why Lease Instead of Buy

Leasing ski or snowboard gear lets kids start each winter with properly fitted, modern equipment — no guessing on sizes, no expensive purchases they’ll outgrow, and no hassle trying to resell used gear later.

Most lease programs run from October through April or May, and include boots, skis or board, bindings, and poles (if needed). Many shops offer equipment exchanges if your kid outgrows them mid season and many of the leases include free tune ups.

Local Mom Tips

Book early. Most shops begin fittings October 1, and inventory can sell out by Thanksgiving.
Try on in person. Kids’ boot comfort can make or break a ski day. Make sure they can wiggle their toes and that socks aren’t too thick.
Ask about upgrades. Some shops offer swaps mid-season if your child grows — especially helpful for preschoolers and first-time skiers.
Take advantage of free passes! Gorham Bike & Ski’s free Black Mountain pass can make a big difference if you’re planning family ski days.
