Why can't my kids rent equipment at the area each time?
It's really hard to learn when your equipment keeps changing! Also, Blizzard staff are unable to supervise the rental process and legally cannot sign waivers or liability releases for minors' rental equipment. It's not a very fun way to spend the first hour of every Blizzard trip, either.
For an alternative to purchasing new equipment, contact Hoigaard's about their season-long rental program. They have great deals on new and used equipment that you can keep all season! Their expert staff will make sure you get equipment that fits and that matches your ability.
Another option is to pick up used equipment at
preseason swaps, which are usually sponsored by local nonprofit groups such as race teams. Blizzard also offers our online swap all year long.
Why do I need to RSVP by the deadline? Can't I just show up?
Why is there a no-show fee?
