I bought my first set of skis here yesterday, and the guys at ProSki made it an awesome experience. Meanwhile, my boyfriend spent an ungodly amount of time trying on boots while I was yelping restaurants. I was hangry. The guys in the back brought me a sandwich. Let's just say, we won't be shopping at any competitors ever again. read more

Taylor helped me with my boot fitting last November and I decided to wait to do an evaluation here until the end of the season when I would really know how they worked out. I skied 10 days at Stevens Pass and 10 days at Whistler and the fit is dreamy-good. I don't even unclip them at lunch because they feel about like wearing bedroom slippers. Mine are K2s. I like the big loops on the fronts and backs of the liner so I can give them a tug even with gloves on. They even look great. I think the price was excellent too. I didn't do boatloads of research but I thought I would be spending about twice as much. I am thinking that they get the space for the shop at a very fair rate, and are passing along the savings to us. Works for me. Thank you Taylor and everybody. Cool shop dog too. read more

I recently visited ProSki for a boot fitting and had an awesome experience. The person I worked with was friendly and provided the perfect balance of listening to what I was looking for and offering suggestions as the expert. I walked out with a great new pair of boots and was so excited I wanted to head straight to the mountain to try them out. Can't say enough good things about ProSki and the people who work there, will 100% be back for future gear purchases. read more

A great ski shop that really knows the meaning of customer service. So many shops are not really personable ski repairs but Pro Ski is not like the rest. The staff are cool and real ski enthusiast who know what they are talking about. The music is always pumping and the have some really good gear as well. Support independent owners who love the sport! read more

Mike and Michael are extremely skilled/knowledgeable in regards to recreational and backcountry skiing. Their attention to detail and drive to help you succeed are a rare find! read more

The customer service is piss poor. I called today to understand availability to work on my Dynafit Beast Carbon Boots. The guy that answered was a complete jerk. He said they are pretty busy this weekend but I could try to bring them in on Sunday - perfectly understandable. I asked what time they opened and he responded with, "We open at 10am, not 9:59am." Huh? I guess that stemmed from some rude customer, but there was no need for some condescending attitude. Apparently sporting goods store cashiers tell better time than every other human on earth. Regardless, it was enough to lose my business. Check out Sturtevant's in Bellevue - it's worth the extra mileage for non-jackass employee encounters. read more

Great service and staff. Great selection with great prices. Went to three ski shops before hitting this one and was a gem!!!!

I had such a great experience at ProSki. I won't be going anywhere else from now on! As soon as I started talking to one of their friendly employees, I could see the deep rooted passion he had for hitting the slopes, backed up with an immense amount of knowledge. His attention to detail was phenomenal, and now my boots which had been killing my feet, have been heat molded, and are so comfortable! Thank you, ProSki. I'll see you again soon! read more

This place is great! They were so helpful and fast. Very laid back and friendly. I highly recommend checking them out for all your skiing needs. read more

Wonderful little ski shop with top-of-the-line equipment. Very knowledgeable staff. Mike took time with us while we tried several pairs of boots and discussed ski options. Each member of their team was helpful and low-key (no pressure to buy). Also, really fair pricing, especially with the pre-season sale. Our kids got a great set of ski equipment as part of the junior rental program. We will definitely be return customers! read more

If you want to pay 2x the price and get met with some terrible customer service this is your spot. Got fitted for boots that are $400 online/Evo, but somehow $700 here. Got met with a pretty harsh attitude when I asked if they price matched. $50 for custom boot molding as well. Went to Evo got the same boots for $350 with free molding, and cheaper mounting of bindings, etc all with way better customer service. read more

How do I love thee, Pro Ski? Let me count the ways: 1. Knowledgeable, friendly, AMAZING customer service. Love the new owners. I got my kids' skis, boots, poles etc. for the season and they hooked me UP. I got updated gear at a decent price and Taylor was patient and kind to my children, who were bouncing off the walls that day. He's good dude. 2. My friend just took her kid there and they hooked HER up for a decent price. And, what's more, they had her new skis (complete with adjusted bindings) ready on the SAME DAY so that our friend could go skiing with us the following morning. And they were BUSY. But they did it anyway. Why? Because they're awesome. 3. It's just plain fun to be there, in all of that cozy, ski-loving goodness. The energy there is great. Lots of humor and good (ok some bad) jokes made by fellas who clearly know and love what they're doing. The folks at Pro Ski seem both glad and grateful you've chosen to do business with them. Personally, I feel annoyed when I spend money in a place and the employees act like they are doing me a favor. You will feel happy you are helping keep this little place in business. Reasonable prices and top-notch service, delivered by friendly, good people. Where else in Seattle will you find this? If you're not at Pro Ski, you won't. So get thee to Pro Ski and let them hook YOU up. read more

Awesome service! We needed rental boots on a busy holiday weekend and at 1pm on Saturday in a packed store, the employee took time to sort us out. Other ski shops in the area either did not provide weekend rentals if you go on Saturday, or only offered weekly or seasonal rentals. Lot's of great gear...we will be back to rent in the future and get our next round of ski gear read more

Incredible products and great service. Prices are lower than expected, too. Can't wait to hit the slopes with my new boots!

My wife and I went for a ski boot fitting here and couldn't have been more impressed. 1. Mike and Tim were super friendly and helpful. They had great energy and even looked after our kids while we were fitted. 2. They are very knowledgeable and almost took it personally to be able to find the best boot and best fit for each of us. 3. The prices were very reasonable. They did not push the more expensive gear and also pointed out all of the discounts available on different options 4. They worked quickly, producing all sorts of options from what seems like a small shop read more

Love these guys--support local business! Great selection of skis, gear, and attire. The staff is super informed and friendly, and really helpful. I needed bindings mounted on my new skis, they were SUPER busy, but STILL managed to do me a favor and have them set and ready to go for Saturday night. Can't recommend these guys enough. read more

Always reliable, great service and gear. I wont shop for ski gear anywhere else. I've tried and nothing compares to these folks. They listen, know their gear, are super patient and don't talk down to customers. Mike always helps me find what I need. I'm not going to get more specific because I've had countless great experiences here - obviously I keep going back for more! read more

These guys are amazing. Originally found them when Evo wanted a full week to mount my skis. Theses guys turned around one pair in 10 mins. Then... I have had problems with the boots I bought at Evo, that had been adjusted by Evo. I now live out of state but stopped by on the way to Whistler b/c I trusted them. In a split second, the ProSki guy, who I told I hated my boots, informed me that I had been sold a slightly large boot. He put in a few inserts and my boots no longer torture me. They could have sold me new boots but instead they gave me a simple fix, and after 4 days I can say it worked!! Thank you!! read more

Serious props to Pro Ski Seattle. I love that there are still some small shops that are actually interested in making you happy. They let me exchange a pair of ski boots I got for Autumn last June (on clearance) and gave me store credit. Now I have a new pair of goggles! #customerService read more

These guys know there stuff when it comes to tune ups and repairs. My wife and I got back from skiing in the Rockies over Christmas, and our fat skis got pretty eaten up by the rocks (snow coverage is not as good in the rockies early in the season). For the cost of a $50 tune, Pro Ski filled in all the scuffs with p-tex (they had to use quite a bit), sharpened the edges, stone grind on the base, and topped it off with a hand wax. I give Pro-Ski 5 stars for their equipment, knowledge, and ski shop services. And, give them 3 for their average (but not bad) employees' customer services and salesmanship (agree with the other reviews that they may not be friendliest shop in town). So, it nets out to a 4. Bottom line, Pro Ski knows their stuff, their ski shop services are top notch, for a pretty great value. I'll definitely continue to use their services. read more

This place went above and beyond for me when I was buying a set of skis, boots, and all the fixings associated with that. Staff was super helpful and friendly, so much so that it inspired me to write a review on Yelp, something I've never done before in my life. Thanks ProSki, you guys are the best. read more

Great shop. They always put in the extra effort to get shop work done if I am in a rush (it is dumping, can you mount these bindings right now?). Also have very high quality gear usually a good range of sizes, etc... read more

Great service -- really patient (let's try another pair of boots) even when busy. They pushed last year's model (which was discounted) as opposed to the higher price of this year. They can't make it snow at Stevens, but otherwise, pretty awesome. read more

ProSki Rules! One of the owners performed a quick fix on a pair of boots I bought on line so I could keep skiing while I waited for the the boot manufacturer and the online retailer to send me the replacement parts. He was happy to help me even though I didn't buy the boots from him. I'll never buy gear online again. My next pair of boots, skis and bindings are coming from ProSki! read more

I had visited the store a number of years ago. And I had liked the advice the sales person offered. Recently I decided to get new skis and had this business in my site. Along with REI and Evo my website search could not satisfy the info I needed. Pro Ski is located near my location and when I went in Michael Long took the time to pick out a ski and binding that he felt was needed. And I did my homework visiting YouTube sites with reviews and I became confident this was my ski. I had the same confidence when I lived in Sun Valley while buying skis, boots etc. The salesperson was an older Austrian who I had connected with close to 20yrs. before. This guy was great- skiing is in his blood! It's great to feel confident that the advice you are getting will make your skiing as pleasurable as possible. I get the same vibe at ProSki as I got in SV. Give them a visit. And their prices were spot on with the competition. read more

Mike and his crew are always extremely helpful! These people know their shit!!! Dont go to EVO. Dont go anywhere else but here!!! Bring them a case of beer next time you go in! read more

A few years back when ProSki Seattle split off from ProSki in North Bend, I was wondering whether they were going to be able to keep up the same great service. Well, my question has been answered: absolutely, yes, the service is better than ever. Twice now I've taken in my light-weight touring boots for repair. I did originally buy the boots there, but they are long out of warranty and have broken because I've abused the crap out of by skiing the lift-served areas in them (I know, I admit it, I've been too lazy to walk uphill). Both times, they've fixed the boots up for me quickly, with only a nominal charge for the parts and labor. I couldn't be happier with the great service. read more

My experience at ProSki today has brought me out of review-writing hibernation. This was my first time trying out seasonal ski rentals for my kids and I was imagining a painful, prolonged experience. Instead, from the minute we walked in the door, we were met with smiles and plenty of help & attention. My kids were quickly sized for boots & skis, and had fun chatting with the staff. We then got great help with goggle selection, which I appreciated .. with Mike and the team happily zipping downstairs to bring up additional sizes & colours for us to check out. I'm happy with our rentals & purchases, but even more so with the discovery of this awesome shop, with such a helpful & friendly team. Thanks guys! read more

The best place to go in the entire Seattle area. The staff are truly experts and the rental gear is top notch. I also highly recommend Proski for repairs and adjustments. read more

Visited Seattle and this was about the only shop I could find to rent skis. Staff was young but very courteous, helpful and vey knowledgeable. Good quality skis and boots for a very affordable price. read more

Recently had a bad experience here. We went back country skiing at Mount Baker on Feb 14 & 15th. Rented all equipment at Pro Ski Seattle. My daughter booked all equipment a week in advance and pre-paid the rental. When picking up rental equipment, I tried on boots and fit was not great, but I had no other choice. Store did not check to see if skins fit skiis, Being a rookie back country skier I was not wise to do this myself. Turned out the skins were too wide and too long for the skiis. AND being unaware that daughter had pre paid, I was charged again for the rental. Need less to say my first day was miserable as it was too late to get other skins and the fact they were too wide made grip on steep slopes hazardous. Store did pay for rental of skins from shop near Mt. Baker and only offered an apology. Bad service deserves a cash refund. None was offered. read more

I might buy new gear once a decade. I'm overdue, so based on the good reviews and the fact that it's a locally owned shop which we always try to support, my wife and I went in to start shopping for new ski boots for ourselves. Skis/poles will be next year.... Small shop, 2 or 3 customers milling around. Look around for 5 minutes. Still haven't noticed an employee. Looking at boot selections. See there's a list posted on the wall of the available models and pricing. Now keep in mind, I don't make spontaneous decisions about gear. If anything, I over analyze every conceivable option. I'm not going to walk into the first shop I see and buy whatever the bro-bra points me to without going home and researching the heck out of it and likely going to try other product lines at other shops. So I pull my phone out and snap a photo of the model list so I have it available for research later. "HEY, what are you doing?" from behind me. Not inquisitive, or helpful, but accusatory. "Taking a picture of your model list." I say. The bro-bra, clearly perturbed, says "Why don't I just print it out so you can go shop online then." I say, "Are you serious dude?". "yeah, kinda....". Zero interest in earning my business, so I left (after a couple choice words) and dropped $800 the same day somewhere else. Lesson to bro-bra judgemental d-bag: in today's world of info-at-the-fingertips and online shopping, the last thing you want to do as a small shop is miss out on a chance to earn new customers by being a d-wad and dishing out attitude for no good reason. Notice I used the word "earn". Just because you are a small local shop does not mean you are exempt from having to earn my business. At the very least, attempt to adhere to some minimal standard of customer service (or in case that concept is foreign to you, do the exact opposite of what you did today). read more

I'd have to agree with Chris B unfortunately- These guys know what they're talking about but kind of have this condescending "bro" attitude and are too aggressive with the up-sell on the service in my humble opinion. I left with a bad taste in my mouth I hate to say. Maybe it was just the guy I was dealing with. But they do good work so I'll give them three stars. read more

They killed a pair of skis and the owner tried to weasel out of dealing with it!! I'm not kidding you... I brought in a pair of skis to be mounted and in the process they dimpled the base. (Which means that they drilled too far into the ski and the screws popped out the base itself... it's an irreparable mistake.) When I went to pick them up, the owner stepped away from a client to let me know that they had made an error in mounting the skis, they had pounded it back but if I looked closely I'd be able to tell, and told me to come back mid-season or something and they'd hook me up with a free tune up or something else. (I can't remember his name... the shorter one. The tall guy was actually great to deal with.) I naturally assume the best in people, so I didn't suspect anything out of line was going on. I also have enough miles under my belt to know that you can screw things up (drill a hole in the wrong place & fill it, etc.) and - even though it doesn't look as nice - keep the ski totally skiable and whatever... life is full of mistakes so I don't get hung up on this sort of thing. HOWEVER... when I got home and took a closer look, I discovered the extent of the damage... they had drilled all of the holes too deep, the base was completely rising, and there was literally a screw head that I could feel in the base of my ski. For anyone who doesn't know... this mistake literally kills the ski... there is no way to repair the base from this level of damage and it more than calls for the shop to replace the skis. No, I've never asked anyone to replace a pair of skis before - this is hands down a full replacement situation. So I contacted him to let him know I'd taken a closer look and that the damage was more extensive than I had assumed and that we needed to work it out. Then he started trying to weasel out of it... He tried to blame it on Black Diamond (the binding manufacturer), he tried to blame it on Volkl (the ski manufacturer), he tried to tell me that if I really wanted them replaced, that he was going to file for a warranty with BD and that it would be months, if ever that they came through with it. BS like that. I admit, I'm a bit timid in confrontation, so I took this information to ponder and to check out with others. I've been skiing seriously for many many years, and as a result I have good friends all over the ski industry - shops, mechanics, manufacturers, mountains... After running the story past several people, the unanimous feedback was that they killed the skis and that when this happens the shop delivers a new pair of skis to the customer. Ski mechanics are human & ski mechanics make mistakes, but you take your skis to a shop so that the work is backed up. If you want to shoulder the outcome of potential mistakes, then you take them to your own garage & do the work themselves. When I went back to him again with more research of the issue under my belt, he immediately backed off & replaced the skis. Like I said, I don't fault them in the least for making a mistake - mistakes happen. I do fault him for pushing the limit as far as he could and doing everything he could to weasel out of having to do the right thing upon making a mistake like this. I never should have had to even ask a question... What I should have received was a phone call when the mistake happened, that said "we're sorry, but we made an irreparable mistake when mounting your skis and we are ordering a new pair in. They'll be ready next week instead of tomorrow." End of story, integrity maintained, customer retained. The shop isn't bad in terms of the gear they stock. Decent gear for Seattle. But I don't plan to ever go back & I wouldn't recommend going near it to anyone else either. SHADY! read more

They wouldn't even talk to me unless it was to sell me new boots, even WITH an appointment. I wanted to get an evaluation about my current boots and if needed, replace them. They wouldn't so much as have a look, even with an appointment, and preferred to quibble over the statement on the website that says boot appointments are for purchases only. This is a pretty unusual stance to take when evaluating my current boots may very well result in a boot sale, but I suppose they're doing so well financially they don't see the need to spend 15 or 20 minutes having a look. Very surprising attitude for a small business. I will not do business with a company who essentially tells me I am of no value unless I'm spending $600 I have never encountered a ski shop in my 35 years skiing, particularly one presumably employed and owned by fellow skiers with what you'd like to believe a shared love of the sport, that wants you to promise to buy something before they'll dispense their expertise or offer suggestions. To not feel a customer on your doorstep is worth 20 minutes of your time when they drive an hour to get to you and be on time for their appointment on a Saturday morning, is just a shocking position to take. Perhaps a suggestion if they can't find the time for customers...try opening before 11 o'clock. As a result of their rejection, I drove down the street to Evo who accommodated me even without an appointment. They then evaluated my boots and made some adjustments, and told me if any further adjustments were needed it would be at no charge. It took 35 minutes of time and my bill was $70. $135 an hour ain't too shabby, but it's still not enough for ProSki. Also, where do you think I'll go next time for any of my needs? My advice is to go to a ski shop that loves skiers first, and considers them customers second. The day you take the position of "60 bucks an hour doesn't pay the bills" (direct quote) and can't see that it's not about the 60 bucks but the 600 or 2,000 that could follow, is the day you have failed as a business. read more

Bought my first full retail price ski boots of my life today. Drew patiently spent almost three hours fitting me. I am a petit older female and I did not get a hint of "dudeattude". Nice , professional shop. read more

Best ski shop in Seattle to get any work done on your gear. I have had plenty of skis mounted here and never a mistake. They have a very knowledgeable staff who actually have spent time in the mountains. If you want to get started ski touring, need a tune our a mount, this is your place. read more

My ski boot was missing some hardware, so I called Evo in Fremont (where I bought the boot a year earlier) and they told me all they could do was send it back to Atomic for repair with a lead time of 8 weeks. I had a trip coming up in two weeks so this wouldn't work for me. Instead I took the boot here and they fixed it in 10 minutes with some similar hardware that works fine. The guy asked for $10 cash - and I only had $5, and he said that was enough and don't worry about it. These guys are very courteous and funny. This is the way customer service should work. Bring them your business! read more

The price of the tune & wax is excessive, but the service performed is adequate enough for me to return when I want a 'pro' resurfacing my edges. They over-edged my skiis two years ago and now I've probably got just one more season left on them instead of the three I knew I could squeeze. I was a little perturbed that this had happened, but they do good enough work and can turn it around quickly enough that the proximity of ProSki to my house is too much to pass up come November's initial tune run. The staff is knowledgable and helpful, but nothing outstanding. read more

It is the middle of an awesome ski season so one can only imagine how crazy busy it is for ProSki Seattle. I had a pair of skis for my man that needed to have the bindings adjusted and they got it done on the spot even though they were clearly being overrun by customers wanting and needing everything under the sun for the upcoming weekend on the slopes. Kudos to all of the friendly staff who are never pretentious or too busy to help you out. read more
