years shiny new gear but, If you don't have your own fat

I met Patrick DeCaigny, the stores owner, in 2009, while I was doing my Instructors courses. I tried out loads of different skis and Patrick was always helpful and easy going...just what you want when you can't make up your mind what to buy!.
I met Josh Parry - a servicing and boot-fitting Jedi Master - that year as well, as he was one of my Course Instructors. You'll be hard pushed to find a better, more natural skier around, and he's a really fantastic coach.
David is a fanastic skier as well as being a a superb boot fitter and the head tech for the Canadian Bordercross Team. Marie, his partner and the stores' manager, is a Level 4 Instructor - hence she skis pretty well as well!
As a team they have a lot of years in the business, all the skills you need and are keen to help you try the demo gear and find the right setup for you...what more could you want?
