We popped into Urban Alpine to get fitted for skis. Last year we rented everything, so although we…read moreknew what size boots we needed, none of us really knew exactly what we wanted to buy. The bloke at Urban Alpine was soooo helpful! He spent quite a long time measuring and fitting boots for me, my husband and our friend. He wasn't pushy at all, and showed me a few different options. He also took into account our each of our skiing styles to recommend the best possible styles for each of us. In the end I bought some ski boots (I love them!) and he told me to come back after using them a few times to see if they can further improve the fitting. My friend found a really good pair that were more than 50% off, so he was happy too. My husband wasn't able to find any boots that fit him perfectly, but after the advice we received here, we have a better idea about what to look for.

I live two hours away from Urban Alpine, yet it is still my go to, and favourite ski shop. I have…read morebeen there multiple times in the last 3 years and bought ski boots, poles, skis, a jacket and a few small accessories. What brings me back? Well first off it's the prices and range of products. These products are largely focused on park skiers and boarders, but even if that isn't you, you can still find something. Prices are usually pretty good, especially in the off season. I have been to the turkey sale in Whistler at Thanksgiving 3 times now looking for fairly important purchases (first boots, then a jacket, then skis) and all three times I've ended up going back to Urban Alpine because of better prices and availability. The service is the best I have ever experienced in a ski shop, possibly the best I've ever experienced in any store. They always are quick to help you, and have knowledgeable and honest staff to answer every question. This is particularly nice, because the Whistler Blackcomb outlet store that is basically in the same strip mall, rarely has anybody that knows what they're talking about when it comes to skis. I have also asked on two separate occasions of they have a specific item, and when they didn't, they offered to order the item for me for no extra charge! I am always amazed by this store, and will always do my best to go there when I am in need of something ski related, even though it is very far away from me. I hope others do the same!

Today because snow is forcast tomorrow and will continue all day I asked to switch my reservation to a different date. Explaining my vehicle will not safely get me there. Not once did I ask for my money back, I understand a strict no refund policy. Infact I really am not worried about the deposit. Lack of customer service, that annoys me, young patronizing employees annoy me lack of communication and listening skills annoy me. Lack of customer appreciation annoys me. I did email the owner, who seems wasnt clearly told the whole story and couldn't even comprehend why I would be annoyed. I'm sorry this was my experience and I'm actually sorry I have to write this. You will probably have a great experience as I have for the last 5 years. Good luck! However I will find somewhere else to shop after today.

I also found there are more local made products within the store so as to support local producers, yes, the price maybe a bit higher then national brands, but if we all chip in and help buy local, we are helping our society to recover faster! I hope my thinking is right?! Btw, staffs here are all very helpful and kind too!

He called several different bike shops he knew could help and hooked me up with a shop that fixed it for me. Brian was incredibly helpful and did not have to lift a finger to help me, but he went way beyond to make sure I was able to get a new tube and ride off into the sunset. I stopped by today to again say thanks and grab a cup of coffee - and I must say, it was the best cup of coffee I've had in Squamish! I highly recommend you drop by either to pick up a RAD bike or just get a cup off great coffee. Again, Brian, thank you for getting me and my flat fixed up! Doug

DANGEROUS! Aggressive staff & fraudulent pricing. Stay away!…read more1 Star. I have NEVER been so threatened in a business. I caught them overcharging me ($50 for boots vs $40 for the full kit on their website). When I confronted the manager about lying to my face twice, a staff member charged at me, swearing and acting extremely aggressive ("Watch the fk who are you talking to"). The manager then tried to blackmail me, saying they wouldn't refund my money if I kept calling out their lies. I have the entire interaction ON VIDEO. This place is not just a scam; it is unsafe.
