Step 2 | Equipment

Equipment Matters – Be Ready for Winter Term Lessons

Having the right gear is essential for a safe, comfortable, and successful learning experience on the snow.

Bringing your own gear?
Make sure it’s ready to go:

Are your bindings properly adjusted?
Do your boots fit well?
Has your equipment been recently tuned?

If you answered “no” or “I’m not sure,” stop by the Snowbowl Ski Shop before your first lesson. Our experienced technicians will make sure everything is set up correctly to help you get the most out of your time on the mountain.

Need gear? No problem.
We offer a comprehensive season lease program with everything you need to get started—skis or snowboard, boots, and poles. Perfect for first-timers and anyone without their own equipment.

Don’t wait—get your gear dialed in early so you’re ready to hit the slopes with confidence.
