Recently we decided to purchase new equipment and found that Daniel LaChance had the best selection by far, and their service was like nothing we've ever experienced before. We purchased custom-fit ski boots for our 2 sons, and the boot fitter was exceptional. It's an experience - but I highly recommend taking the time to get your boots properly fitted the way they do at Lachance. The gentleman who did the fitting was precise and meticulous, measuring their feet and molding the boots to every contour, bump, and detail. It took about 2 hours and several rounds of tweaking a pressure point here and a spot there. When we returned to Mont Tremblant this year, we needed adjustments to the boots, which they said happens sometimes. The Ski Shop did not hesitate to make sure we got what we needed, they got right to work on making the necessary adjustments, at no charge. They even stayed past closing time to complete the boot fitting. In addition to custom boot fitting, they have an incredible array of skis, boots, clothing, and accessories. Just a fantastic store, with great people. We are 100% satisfied with Daniel LaChance, best Ski Shop we've ever been to!

We were standing at the base lift line clipping in and found that my wife's ski binding had never been adjusted to fit her boots. It took a good 15 minutes to adjust the bindings to fit her boots. If we were unable to adjust the bindings we would have had to get out of the ski gear and back in the car. Drive back To Below Zero take everything back in the store to have the skis adjusted. Then drive back to the ski slopes and hopefully find parking. This whole endeavor would have cost us, at the minimum, a half day and not to mention the shitty attitude for the remainder of the day. The skis should have never made it out the door, this is an essential basic skill rental adjustment.

Had an amazing week of skiing with the family!…read more For a first time skiing in Canada we all agreed this was a good choice. Plenty of terrain for advanced skiing which most of our party was. There are plenty of beginner slopes close by if you are unsure if your little ones are right for hear. I don't typically stop for lunch but I could not help myself in going back time and time again to grab a chili to warm up and thaw out. Loved seeing the fresh baked goods at the top lodge, i can safely say I stayed away from them. Mid week parking very manageable. P2 & P3 lots very close for walking to the access lift. I took a hard slip and fall on the ice so be sure not to take long strides while going through the parking lot. Lift lines were a breeze all week, even on Saturday with the Duncan lift down. Longest I ever waited was 20 minutes on the edge lift, and that was because the lifties did not do a good job clearing snow under the chairs so everyone kept loosing their skis. I bounced around in the singles line and in my group of four and both moved very well. I would absolutely come here again, there is plenty of places to stay around the area so arriving on a Saturday night to ski Sunday is very doable.

Once I realized the charge should not have applied in my situation, I disputed it with my credit card company. Very disappointing and questionable business practi

I was a bit dismayed to discover that they no longer sell secondhand skis, that was such a great service to the community, but in the end I went with new and was super happy with my decision. They offered an excellent price for the whole kit - boots, skis, and poles. They are pretty basic but exactly what I need, lightweight and comfortable and just my size. The service from everyone was friendly, chill, helpful, funny, just great. I love that they have a quality control station where someone makes sure everything you bought is in good working order before you go. And I love how much outdoor equipment they have from Montreal companies. Now... if it'll just stop raining...

Poubelle du Ski has been around for a long time and they know their stuff. They also have outdoor active wear like pants and coats. Some notes on ambiance. This place is normally packed so be patient. They'll get you what you need but sometimes the place is busting at the seams so a little patience goes a long way. Éric and Yan helped me out this time around and when I tell you these guys know what they're doing I mean it. I'm a hard for for boots both hockey and ski but these guys knew exactly what to grab if one bit wasn't working. My visit to be fitted for ski boots and hockey skates took a couple of hours but again that's down to me being a hard fit. Don't feel rushed by the atmosphere, take your time and pick the right boot or skate or coat or whatever it is you're looking for. The staff will never rush you.

Her board advice and knowledge was spot on and helped me pick a super fun board to ride Tremblant and bindings that fit me perfectly.

Lastly, I decided to rent the board another half day and she stored my board overnight at the store so I didn't have to lug back to the condo. Overall amazing experience, but management needs to get extra employees in the store.
