Whenever my family visits I always make sure they rent from here instead of at mountain. Nina is also the best - aside from always helping me out, my father once left his rental skis at the mountain so Nina had an employee pick them up the next time they were at Copper with no charge to us. Also, whenever I need a new mounting or base grind Crystal is my place every time. The shop discount for renting with a family/friend really makes it worth it.

Great Boot Fit Experience Over the past week, my wife has…read morebeen working with Caden on a new boot fit at the Boulder Christy Sports. Caden was very patent and extremely helpful when she wanted to try on multiple boots several days in a row. This included bringing in boots from other stores to ensure we had the correct size. As we went through the process, my wife was happy and enjoyed hanging out in the store and talking with the friendly staff. If you are not in a rush, this was a great way to buy a pair of ski boots. After finding a boot that fit (Dalbello, Panterra 85 with walk mode!) Caden then made custom insoles, added Thermic heaters, and ensured that her skis and bindings were dialed in and safe We will definitely be repeat customers at this location! FYI...During the times we visited, and Caden was unavailable, the rest of the team was happy to help and made the buying experience top-notch.

The boot fitter put me into a pair of K2 that were like putting my foot into gloves. Soft inside, yet firm enough that I knew they would be responsive. After I had custom foot beds put in - we realized that the new boots had a completely different bottom and therefore wouldn't clip into my Blizzard Black Pearls. I bought this year's model of Black Pearls with new bindings. My old skis (less than 3 years old) were then handed down to my adult daughter who had been using them since my surgeries. Now we're both happy. Highly recommend Christy Sports in Boulder.

They also had a sale (mid-march), which was actually pretty significant. I was in the market for new ski pants, tried on a bunch of options and settled on a pair that was marked down from $250 to $160, not bad. I then had to stop myself from purchasing other cute fleeces and gear that I really didn't need. I had an easy time trying on and checking out. Overall pretty great experience.

Wisely they moved the North Metro location to Boulder. I know many of the staff on a first name basis and they never steer me wrong. My husband is the avid camper, hiker , adventurer, but I have been lucky to find xc skis here for years, to have my bike serviced here and most recently have bought much footwear and casual outdoor seasonal wear. What I was looking for today was not yet in stick for summer but I will look again next week when the spring/summer sale starts. With a membership there are so many perks so the savings are huge, especially kf you use their partner credit card. Even leaving empty handed today, it was a fun experience . And when my husband needs a new tent, no matter how small in comparison to this display today, he will get it here and at a good price for exceptional quality.

This location continues to decline in outdoor community vibe and customer service - perhaps it's…read moreREI all over? Although the Denver store is pretty decent, in my opinion. My 4 year old was peddling around on a bike, and since he's still learning to stop - was not able. The bearded bros came a running "no no he can't do that". I was waiting for the mace. Being grandiose but not too far off. Their panic was hilariously overzealous. Take pride in your job but brother - Your assistant daytime front end merch manager status equals zero power. Y'all need to chill the eff out. You're an outdoor gear store. Supposed to be a part of and embrace your community. There's a reason why people are turning in their memberships left and right. You're one step away from being in that Walmart level of stores. Sad. Adios- Chad, Kyle and Aspen.

What a great local resource though! Employees and owner who are passionate about skiing. I'm not…read morea high-performance skier, I snowboard these days, and I'm not really a high-performance snowboarder either. Ha. But you can tell that this is the crowd that we are catering to here. Not that they don't have useful stuff for us average skiers - I didn't see anyone being talked down-to here. You'll see a beautiful store, recently expanded from what I understand. Various areas of skis, poles, some clothing, a good selection of maintenance and repair items! And oh the machines they have in the shop - I dunno what they do, but they sure are pretty. :) Apparently there's an upstairs boot fitting room, I didn't visit. My main experience was attending their waxing clinic (they also offer edge and p-tex clinics) - taught by their employees. I can't say enough good things about making self-repair and understanding of equipment a sharing opportunity for a business. Certainly within skiing, you'd have a lot fewer ignorant customers/equipment owners! I know that at least some of us will learn from the clinic, but still hire someone to do the work. I get a good impression, based on both their floor sale and seeing behind the scenes in the repair shop. If I were looking for somewhere where I thought the tech working on my equipment actually cared and has been around long enough to acquire some skills (through time, experience, training or osmosis), I'd go here. Not that other places are bad, but the shop area is really decked out and a place where mechanics can go to town doing what they do. After saving this review, I'm gonna go put this shop on my Boulder "list". Note - their hours are longer than indicated here on Yelp right now - closing at 8pm many nights. Perhaps these are their winter hours.

Know one offered to help . No one even acknowledged I was there. Which is poor customer service . Which means I purchase a high end sleeping bag from another retailer . If you expect to have loyal customers in an online retail market , which I don't support . I suggest the store show some common curtesy and ask can I help or direct you. You would have made a $$$ since bags that I'm interested in are{ - 5 to -25 F}range bags not cheap .
