I've done Rentals with Ski Tech for years now. I've never had a bad experience they are so consistent, kind, and willing to go the extra mile. Prices are phenomenal compared to the competition. Daniel was the last person to help me and talk about a great guy. You can tell he enjoys just helping people. He is the main reason I wanted to share the review. Thank you Ski Tech and much thanks to Daniel! read more

Stood in line for over an hour! They were all using hand tools instead of a drill so it took forEVER! Never again!

my first experience here will not be my last because the service was fantastic - it felt like a hometown ski shop, they had everything I needed, and they gave it to me for a fair price. read more

Very helpful. Gets very busy in the morning and around 4. Good selection of ski's and boots. Better to pick up the night before you ski. Book online for a discount. read more

It is great to have a solid ski shop on Santa Fe again. It has been a while. My wife and I have shopped here a number of times over the paast six months. Service and selection are first rate. Thank you to all the staff. read more

Great place to rent equipment! The people who work here are courteous knowledgeable and overall awesome people to work with. I'll be back anytime I need a rental! read more

If you are looking to rent or buy skis in Santa Fe, Ski Tech is the way to go hands down. They are so knowledgeable and helpful, and they have the best service of anywhere I've ever rented from. They can answer all your questions and it's super flexible to return or keep your skis longer which is so helpful. Not to mention all of their gear is top notch and great quality for still a super affordable price. (I'm a broke college student for reference, so the price is great) Their rent to buy program is also a great way to buy skis, and their end of season sale for their used skis is great. Special thanks to Daniel and Lisia of the Ski Tech staff for all your help!! read more

The staff is outstanding- knowledgeable and patient. It's important to keep in mind Santa Fe is a tourist town and big second home community... which means during holidays all businesses including this one are extremely busy. To make sure you get what you need - call ahead and make reservations!!! This will be where we rent and buy our gear for years to come. read more

I was visiting Santa Fe before skiing the local mountain and then Taos. I ran out of time to repair a deep wound in my ski base before I left home in San Francisco, and these amazing guys did a base weld for me within 3 hours after I dropped my skis off in their expert care. I was so impressed that I brought my sister back the next day to rent skis for our lucky day when Ski Santa Fe received a record 40" in 48 hours. We returned after the shop had closed, but a nice guy stuck around to accept my sister's return WAY after business hours. These guys provide great service, with a smile, and at the most reasonable prices I've seen at any ski shop in the last decade. Most importantly, their team cheerfully went out of their way to do me right, and I appreciate them for it. I can count the number of reviews I've taken the time to read on one hand. But these guys blew me away, which necessitated me not being so lazy and sharing my experience so others can benefit as I did. read more

Charlie was super helpful. Whole staff was great and awesome skis. Good prices too. Now I'm excited to get on the mountain.

Great prices and friendly service for boot fittings, wax, tune up and repair. Ask for Charlie!

Had a wonderful experience here. I rented a paddle board for my birthday to take my pup out to the lake. Tim and Kerry were both very knowledgeable about the area and extremely helpful! Unfortunately there was a blue algea bloom and I couldn't risk my dogs health. They worked with me and I will recommend this place to everyone as a goto for fair, efficient, good energy service! read more

Fantastic rental company for ski gear! Very friendly and helpful staff! They made me feel like I was a priority even though the shop was very busy. They helped me to get the equipment fitting right and the pickup process went very fast! The drop off process took literally two minutes and I have no complaints with this business. I will definitely use them again and will be recommending them! read more

Always helpful, good-hearted local snow sport expertise. I've been a client for decades.

Got me all setup for last year's ski season. Bindings for great and we're perfect for my skiing level. Quick turnaround and reasonable price for exemplary service! read more

So I wanted my edges sharpened and my skis waxed. I started to a high end shop to get it done. They wanted me to drop it off for a few days but they were highly rated so . . . On the way there I spotted Ski Tech and dropped in. They took my skis and I went to lunch. After lunch I came back and my skis were already done. They did an excellent job. I check my skis after each day of skiing to see if they need re-done. It is normal to get it re-done after three days skiing. Seven days and counting and they are still in great shape. read more

Shop was small and not a lot of parking but the guy that fitted my boot was great. Very sick and would recommend.

0 stars, no parking. Yelled at by residential neighbors. Super dull and depressed staff. Have to sign and pay everything online on your phone, no option for any other way. I am not a new skier. Had terrible selection of boots (i got blisters on one foot from a bad boot). And the dude also told us they didnt carry any skis taller than 180 ". Nice! Go somewhere else, the prices are 5$ more at the Santa Fe resort. read more

From my husband who doesn't have a Yelp account: "I would recommend Ces for advice and service to skiers from NM, CO, and UT--that is how great she was to my wife and me. From the jump, she was patient with my level of understanding, explained terms without jargon, and made me feel taken care of from the moment I walked in the door. Ces got my wife in this year's demo, appropriate for her skill level, and bent some of her own rules to make our ski trip impactful for our purchase of skis this year. It was hands-down the best experience I have ever had at a rental or sports shop in my 25 years of skiing. I could not recommend Ski Tech enough to the next Santa Fe visitor." read more

Team was very helpful and incredibly knowledge for helping beginners and experts in this sport. Very well customer service! Will 100% come back and do business with these folks! Definitely recommend them, prices are fair and just a hassle free experience here!! read more

Great People, good prices, Sarah is a great tech and everybody is great to work with here. I LOVE their end of the season ski sales. This is my to go to ski place for servicing and tune ups. read more

6 of us arrived this morning by 8:30 and were fitted for snow board and ski rentals promptly. The staff was very helpful and the equipment of excellent quality. Thanks to you all for the service and advice. We will reserve with you next time we go to Ski Santa Fe. read more

We came in late December 28th and called to check to see if they had any skis available to rent. The lady on the phone said there were slim pickings. Knowing how busy this time of the year is for rental places, we wanted to make sure not to waste any time going to a place that had no availability. My boyfriend called back a second time and asked the same lady if we came in early, would it be likely to get some rentals. She told my boyfriend it's slim pickings right now, but it depends on how many returns we get in. With that, we thought if we came in as soon as they opened, we would be able to get some rentals. We woke up early and went in as soon as they opened the next day. When we walked in the employees were very nice. They told us they were low on rentals and proceeded to take us to the back for what we believed we were going to get fitted. As we walked to the back, the lady who my boyfriend spoke to on the phone (unfortunately we didn't get her name) comes up to us and asks us if we had a reservation. We looked at each other perplexed, because not once did she say we needed a reservation when we called the day before. We tell her no, and she says that the rentals were going to people who had reservations because there were slim pickings. If we would have known this when we spoke to her on the phone, we would have made arrangements to rent at another place. We will not be wasting our time renting from here in the future. read more

I took my ski's in for tuning as I have for several years and they did a great job very quickly. They took good care of my ski's unlike some Santa Fe tuners that will damage the uppers. They also were very fair on the price. This week with Ski Santa Fe opening the upper mountain I was finally able to try out my newly tuned ski's. The tune was perfect for the early conditions. Great edges and perfect wax, very fast. Thanks again for taking such great care of me and other customers in Santa Fe for years now. read more

Awesome system. In and out within 15 minutes on Christmas break about 4pm. And refunded us for a day because the mountain shut down without us even asking. Waited an hour and a half somewhere else before the other company sent me here. read more

Ski Tech and their employees are awesome!! They're young, knowledgeable and very fair on price.

I went into Ski Tech to simply ask if they did season boot rentals for adults (was asking on behalf of my 14 year old son). The person I asked, who I think was the owner, said they didn't. I mentioned in passing that I had called Cottam's, an outfit that has a store in Taos and also half way up the mountain to Ski Santa Fe and they told me they did do season boot retails. When I mentioned this I got an unsolicited tirade about how Cottam's did not do "ski functionality testing" and it was "illegal" and they should be "sued" and that I should never go there. He went on and on bashing Cottam's without my even asking what he thought. It was one of the most unprofessional things I have ever seen in retail and I left with a terrible taste in my mouth and will never go back again. read more

Avoid this place. I wish there were zero stars, becausr that is what this place deserves. They treat customers like idiots and don't take any responsibility for anything. I rented skis for my 4 year old daughter, telling them I'd pay for the newest equipment. The technician told me the boots were brand new. They were not. Judging by the scratches, they looked several years old. When adjusting the boots to the bindings, I made it clear that I didn't want them to pop off easily because that ruins a little kid's experience. We got to the mountain and they popped off every 5 feet. I brought them back the next day, asking for a refund for the next day. They refused. Avoid avoid avoid. read more

We rented ski equipment on New Year's Day, and interacting with the staff was almost as enjoyable as our day of skiing. These people are knowledgeable, helpful, and joy to do business with. You can tell they really love their jobs. So incredibly friendly. I will definitely use them again. read more

I visited the hole in the wall ski shop over the christmas break. In fact, my entire family rented from this place. Boy was that a mistake! Here is the lowdown... After renting what they referred to as "really old boots" for my family of 10, we drove up to the mountain for a hopefully wonderful day. After about 20 minutes in the boots that we rented from Ski Tech, our feet hurt so bad. Being our first time skiing, we asked Ski Tech to get us a good pair and that's what we got. It was so bad that my 14 year old daughter had to be taken down the mountain because her boot was hurting her ankle and she could not ski anymore. To top it off, while on the mountain my wife put her Ski's among all the other Skis, which were sitting in plane sight and unlocked. She wrapped them up with my son's pair and headed up to grab a bite to eat. When she returned her Skis were gone and she spent the rest of the day looking in for them with no luck. The next day we rented from Alpine which was AWESOME by the way, and headed back up. My wife looked at the list of reports for lost Skis and the list had nothing but "Ski Tech" skis reported missing. (Weird) When we returned to report this to Ski tech, the response from the owner (Chip S. - Who reviewed his own yelp listing - BAHAHAHA!!!!) was accusatory, rude and he actually made my wife cry. I will not go so far as to accuse Ski Tech of being anything more than having a Rude, Uncaring, Unbelievable, Crapy, somewhat Ruthless owner who cares about nothing more than Money. I feel like this is a true statement because as I was talking to the owner explain what happened to my wife and being accused of negligence on my part, I asked if we could check out another pair for free so that she could enjoy the remained of her vacation (At this point, she had left the store crying by the way) and his response was "This is the busy season and I have nothing to loan out! You can however rent another pair if you want.". That seemed silly to me because he could not loan me a pair but he could rent me one. What ever you do, rent from anywhere but here. Teach these guys that this is America and people have options! read more

Best ski service in Santa Fe hands down. Friendly professionals, quick turnaround and chill environment. No pressure to oversell. Highly recommended over other local rentals and mountain technical services. read more

I will start by saying that this review is of the ownership/management, rather than their services. However, sometimes, especially when we have other options, we choose a business based off of other presence, approach, and care for the community. Personally, I get a lot out of reading bad reviews, because they can be pretty revealing about general practices and aspects I might otherwise overlook. That being said, Ski Tech...and so very many businesses in Santa Fe... and the United States, do not have the benefit of ample parking. After 3 trips around the block and being 20 minutes late to a holiday staff party, I found 1 of several city parking spots in front of Ski Tech. I knew it was city parking because there were 2 clearly marked green signs with arrows pointing toward each other that said "One-hour parking 7am - 7pm" (it was 5:57pm at the moment). On the other side of the street there was a red sign marked as residential parking. Along with the street signs, I noticed a some guy staring at me through the passenger window, by the front door of Ski Tech. He even crouched down and placed his hand above his brow to get a closer look. I cautiously got out of the car, and he asked if I was going to the nearby restaurant. At this point, I figured he's potentially a dangerous dude or potentially a dude who is angry about the lack of available parking to serve his business. I said yes, and he immediately told me I needed to move the vehicle, stating that I was "not in a city parking spot". I pointed out the signs, and he said, "You're not going to be in there for just an hour" (remember it's 5:57pm) and "What you didn't notice were those signs", pointing to the red residential, permit only parking sign on the other side of the street, about 100/+ ft away. I asked if he was the owner/manager of Ski Tech, and he said, "yes". I empathized about the frustrations of lack of parking, especially during the holidays, and he took out his phone and told me he was "calling them to have the car ticketed and towed". He said, "I've seen them do it before. I wouldn't leave it there if I were you". I then stated that it sounds like his frustrations should be aired with the restaurant or city, rather than me. He said, "I will go after anyone who parks here". I called non-emergency police to file a brief report and verify my parking, then attended the holiday party. When I got out of the event, I scanned the vehicle for damage and none was evident...other than a super, obnoxious and childish, "WARNING" sticker firmly applied on the car window. There was an X in the box next to "Unauthorized Parking". All other identifying information like "Date"/"Time"/Issued "By" were left blank. This sticker was obviously fake, hence the obnoxious and childish description. I called the police again, to ensure that they didn't actually put the sticker on the window, and to say that I know it's not anything they need to be worrying about, unless they receive multiple complaints. In the end, I say this to Ski Tech...please have an ounce of self-awareness when you have some public presence, and don't be aggressive and creepy with people. Also, we all know it's December 18th, and there's no snow in Santa Fe, so check yourself for projecting your frustrations onto others because business is slow...it's not because of parking. And, if it is indeed a parking issue, your location is the problem. Finally, you can harass folk and put as many stickers on peoples' cars as you want (within the limits of the city parking spaces in front of your business, I assume...), but in the end, you are left with complaints about your etiquette and appropriateness. It has a much longer lasting effect on a business than an intentionally irritating sticker on a car window. I guess I should state that I have no "proof" that you are the sticker culprit, but I am sure you can see how it seems obvious. Good tidings to you, Ski Tech... read more

Definitely using this place again. The staff had a real family feel, were very friendly, and helpful. While chatting picking up our boards, they gave us a recommendation for a different place to snowboard for our second day out, and I'm so glad we took their advise! Returns were a breeze as well. Thanks you guys! read more

My girlfriend and I went in to rent skis with really no expectations or experience, and were very pleased with the level of service we received. Even though they were busy, they were able to immediately help us and provide useful suggestions with regards to the equipment. I would certainly reccomend them to anyone in need of renting skis. As a side, note, when we got up to the mountain to go skiing, the lines for renting equipment were inordinately long, and working with Ski-Tech was vastly superior to waiting in line up on the mountain. read more

Stay away! This place is shadier than the dark side of the moon. Place is run down, equipment is run down, employees are run down, and the owner is, as many have already said, 'condescending.' read more

Relatively fast (1 week turnaround on getting my skis and bindings set up just as the resorts were opening), relatively inexpensive (35 plus tax total), knowledgeable, convenient and nice guys too. I'm not sure what better would look like, and no i don't work there, and i'm not related to anyone who does. I'd go back there again in a heartbeat read more

My wife and I brought or Ski's in for tune-ups back in December and we both thought it has been the best our ski's have ever felt! Chip and his team are extremely knowledgeable and skilled. Thanks Ski Tech! read more

Great ski shop. Excellent selection of rental and demo skis. Helpful employees and fast, quality tuning and waxing.

I love this area and visit here often, but the last time I was here to rent equipment, everything was so second rate and over used. I then asked for a refund and the owner refused to give back my money. Customer service is horrible. I will not return. read more

I am a Santa Fe local and I will be telling everyone I know here to avoid this establishment. My boyfriend was visiting and rented a snowboard and boots from here and when we returned them, we were told that we had to buy the "broken" board even though we paid for insurance. The manager claimed that insurance didn't cover irreparable damages only to tell us later that she could, in fact, fix the board if she wanted to. After doing some research, it would appear that the damage sustained can be repaired. My issue with this situation was the fact that we were advised by the employees to pay for insurance which was later revealed to be entirely worthless, which makes me think that this place is scamming their customers. Not to mention, the manager told us that the board would cost one price, only to tell us that it would cost $100 more after consulting with the owner of the store. To her credit, I could tell that the manager was not a bad person and that she felt bad charging this much, but that didn't change the fact that we had to pay hundreds of dollars after buying insurance. I understand that business was probably slow last year because of the lack of snow and they might be trying to make up for this, but that is no excuse to treat consumers this way. Trust me, you'll have better luck with just renting equipment once you get up to the mountain. read more
