Pre-orders – Don’t forget to use the pre-order forms and write when you estimate you will be coming in.  That way you will get your order in a timely manner.  If you order after you get it in, it will take a lot longer to get your food.

TECH CORNER

Now that the first week of the 2024 season is in the rear-view mirror, many racers are starting to think about ski maintenance and how to get the most out of their skis! Ski Challenge is very fortunate to have two of the best shops in the state as Platinum sponsors – Joe’s Sporting Goods and Pierce Skate and Ski. Both Pierce and Joe’s have extensive experience in ski tuning and maintenance. We had the pleasure of sitting down with the service managers at both shops to pick their brains and we are thrilled to share their knowledge and recommendations with you. If you need assistance with your skis, whether that’s for a professional tune, equipment, or advice, be sure to stop into Joe’s or Pierce! Both shops are fantastic options and we are so grateful for their continued partnership and support all these years.
