"It was great getting to meet Brian. He was very knowledgeable and helpful in explaining gear to me. He runs an awesome shop and I look forward to getting my gear there next time."

"The owner, Brian is great! He provided us with all of the information and time we needed to make our purchasing decision. The Bird has an easygoing, no-pressure environment, perfect for thinking and deciding before you buy."

"I recently rented skis from the Bird and had a great experience! The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable, helping me find the perfect skis for my skill level and terrain preferences. The equipment was new and great quality, much better than at the slope. Highly recommend this shop to anyone looking to rent skis in the area! They had the most comfortable ski boots I have ever tried."

"Brian was awesome. I was in the market to upgrade my ski boots and he had the perfect pair that were great for wider calf’s. I also opted to update the bindings and tune my skis while I was there and I’m so glad I did. When we went back to pick them up they looked fantastic. It turned out he needed to use a different ( more expensive) binding set due to my ski type and just upgraded them for me without charging me. He was the nicest guy to chat to and offers effortless customer service. For rentals or purchases he goes the extra mile for his customers. Totally recommend the Bird!"

"Couldn’t have asked for a better rental experience here! So easy to rent ski equipment. All of the equipment was in brand new condition. Would definitely use again!"
