Horrible service, store personnel stated to try on boots now require boot fitting when i did not want a boot fitting just wanted to see if i like how the boots feel. "Store policy you must pay for a boot fitting". read more

I can always rely on this shop for my snow goods. I ran in here this morning last minute and three people offered to help and i did need help! I was on my way to a skip trip and didn't realize i sold my old goods on ebay and had nothing for my trip. I grabbed goggles, new gloves and two neck and head scarfs and it only came out to aprox $250, which is incredibly low for these goods. 10/10 recommend. read more

Great place to shop if your looking for all your winter sports needs. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They take their time to explain everything to the customer. They have a huge selection of items to choose from. They offer first responders a discount Thank You read more

Sun & Ski Sports - Gloves - Outdoor Gear Near Me - Plainview, New York

If you need anything run, don't walk; see outdoor enthusiast and expert Kieran Metkiff. We cannot say enough good things about him. He spent two-plus hours helping my husband get skis and we loved our experience so much we got fit for a snowboard too! He loves what he does and he cares. He even took time to recommend family-friendly ski resorts, showing us pics of where we can stay and giving advice on how to get a headstart ahead of next season. He is warm, patient, and knowledgable and after visiting and shopping at Paragon Sports and Sundown, we will only return to Sun & Ski because of Kieran!! read more

I went to get my boots sized and to get new ski's and have them mounted. Everyone was very nice, the guy (I believe Matt D but unsure) was beyond knowledgeable and helpful! And the cashier was super nice also. They are a bit pricey but honestly a much better quality and reliable service. Exchanging my product was so easy. read more

Had the best ski experience here with Andrew. He had a solution to every issue I had, was super knowledgeable, and spent time making sure I found the perfect boot. Thanks so much Andrew! read more

I came here to get my board tuned and fixed. I usually get the Tune II for snowboards service which consists in grinding, wax, fix, and other. The craftmanship is good and once I get my tuning i can feel the difference in the slopes. However, everything else in the store is pricey and not much discounts are offered. Nor any much of great deal when the snow season is high. But when the snow season comes to the end is when the prices get reduced... read more

Come here if you want to a BAD experience shopping Selection is great, the staff is NOT. Needs master bootfitters with more knowledge and maybe a POSITIVE attitude to sell. Pls keep your impatience & rudeness to yourself.Cashier could also use a refresher in courtesy(hint it goes along way to retain and draw in customers) I really wonder how you can run a business in this pandemic with these poor attitudes.I did buy the boot though- just because of convinience, if I could've bought it somewhere else I would have. I usually shop for gear every season and like to have loyalty for maintenance, but no thanks. Come here if you're desperate, but if you have another option- spend your hard earned money elsewhere. DEF WOULD NOT RECOMMEND read more

I come here at least twice a year- during peak szn and off szn. The staff here are always amazing and helpful! So friendly and are always more than happy to answer my questions. Finally bit the bullet to purchase my own ski bundle during end of summer sale/clearance - snagged some boots, skis, poles, bindings and the sales associate Patrick was incredibly knowledgeable and down to earth. Can't wait to ride my new gear. Thank you so much. read more

Only two stars because the man in the back was nice but the two register guys could give less of a crap about their job:)

I can't say enough about Sun and Ski! All their personnel are top notch professional. Their sales help, especially Diana, their sales manager Kris, and their delivery/installation personnel (don't recall their names) all will go above and beyond expectations to help you. Sun and Ski backs the products they sell. I encountered a manufacturers problem with a recent purchase. Sales Manager Kris arranged for no hassle replacement, delivery and installation. Thank you Kris. I highly recommend Sun and Ski for your patio furniture needs. read more

I had a very good experience getting my boots fit and also with buying apparel. The manager/owner is extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I have shopped here for years and will continue to do so read more

Matt Logo helped me size my foot and took excellent care of me and is only reason I bought my boots because they didn't have my large size. He was patient, organized, and came up with countless solutions. Will be back because of Matt and his work ethic. read more

Terrible experience over the phone. I felt like I was asking a favor while trying to rent a board for my son. Have bought from this store before and have excused the rude behavior in the past, but not anymore. read more

Bought Burton snow boot, snowboard and binding here for my son today. They also helped us to put the binding for a little charge. Staffs are all very helpful and friendly. We will be definitely going back and recommend our friends to shop here. read more

Very happy with our visit to Sun & Ski! Fred helped is find a deck set that would fit on our small deck. Many stores only showing large multi-piece sets. Sun & Ski has choices for large and small spaces! A++ read more

Sun & Ski Sports - Got the perfect deck furniture from Sun & Ski! They have selections for large and small spaces. Fred took the time to help us pick our set. - Outdoor Gear Near Me - Plainview, New York

I've been going here every year since it was called "SkiStop"! It's a very nice store. They have nice selections of many brands including Spyder, Karbon, Rossignol, North Face, and more. The rental shop has many employees that will help you and they will stay with you until you find the perfect fit. When you return the rental, it is quick and easy (if you have all equipment and receipt)! Overall, I would recommend! read more

See all

Super friendly staff, Douglas Burch was an excellent help getting my skies all set up. He answered all my questions and was down to earth.

Will (the gentleman who helps with boot fitting) and Jay (the gentleman who does ski mount & prep) really went extra miles to help me and my daughter today. Their services are friendly, professional, thorough, efficient and very patient. They stayed until 6:30pm (store closes at 6 on Sunday) to have our stuff ready in order to save me a 2nd trip (3-hr round trip). Thanks again for your wonderful help and thoughtful consideration. And literally my car was the last one standing in the front parking lot. We were very happy to bring our skis and boots home and now we are good to go skiing. Yeah. read more

Very disappointed! Purchased my board here, have come once before to have my board serviced with great service. This year I decided to use them again so I brought my skis and snowboard. First they were unable to locate my snowboard and skis for 30 minutes (10 to find paperwork, 30 to find ski and snow board and 15 minutes to perform a rush job on my skis). So I was there over a hour just to pick up with NO line. Second they did a terrible job on the actual tuning. Both my ski and snowboard came back to me with rust on the edges and dull, even after the second rush job. In the end I'll be doing the work myself, not sure why I paid for them to hold onto my stuff for 2 weeks? read more

Found the perfect pair of sunglasses on the sunglass rack with no price. Asked for a price Manger proceded to take the sunglasses from me while walking away saying this is not for sale. Very unprofessional. I do not recommend shopping here. read more

They're getting 3-stars simply bc they are one of a handful of ski/snowboard shops on LI. Straight up, thank you for keeping this store open. That being said, it's not the greatest store in the world. It's passable at best. Do I need a fancy store to by snow goods? No. But besides the snowboard/helmet section, this place feels like a garage. Almost all items (minus a clearance rack strewn with neon items) are at their full MSRP, so plan on spending A LOT. I saw a North Face item I got for $45 online here for $125, full MSRP. Also, good luck finding your size in most items. There are maybe 1-3 items of each style, so it's really a crap shoot to hope they have your size. Although I did see some help around, no one looked twice in my direction until I asked where the fitting room was. Bottom line, if you like to try things on or are in a rush (my case) to hit the mountain, you can get everything you need here... at a price. As much as I want to support the local boys, for my future needs, I'll probably be shopping online for snow gear. My wallet just isn't large enough for constant visits here. read more

I rented a snowboard from here for 5days (it came with the snow boots & bindings) for a great price. Big thanks to Cris for helping me out she was very nice and attentive to all my needs. Great service and good deals definitely recommend everyone to go here. read more

Just was in to have my daughters ski bindings adjusted to her new ski boots. Douglas who did the binding check and adjustment to the new boots was friendly, knowledgeable, and awesome all around. He took care of me quickly and had me all set up.. Even threw a coat of wax on her ski's. I will be in with my other ski's shortly to have the binding releases checked to make sure everything is working correctly thanks to Douglas' recommendation. I just need his working hours. LOL. Douglas, YOU ROCK!!!!!! read more

Avoid at all costs! Everything is literally overpriced by double! The snowboard "expert" Jay told me nothing about my snowboard. Just kept saying "yeah, yeah, yeah" trying to rush me out. He also lied to me, telling me I was about to buy a True Twin Snowboard when in fact it was not. I don't know if he lied or is simply uneducated in his department. He didn't seem too bright. Also, when I called the store to ask about the refund policy, the owner, who was an older woman in her 50's, was extremely rude and you can tell she just wants to milk every penny out of inexperienced first timers. I would never give them business again after being treated as a walking dollar bill. P.S. The store has about only 5% of the products that are marketed on their website. I went in looking for 3 snowboards and they had about 10 altogether sitting on the wall. Overpriced, rude, and not helpful at all at finding out information. read more

Staff in the ski section is hit or miss. While waiting for assistance an employee remarked more than once how annoying it was that "people wait until there's snow in the forecast before they buy their skis and need it rushed". It was pretty rude, especially since he's getting paid to help you buy skis. No one shops for winter gear in July, you go when there's a selection or prepare before a holiday weekend when you've made ski plans. Luckily, the salesperson who attended to my gear was super and made up for his socially awkward coworker. read more

Sun and Ski, formerly SkiStop, is an institution that has annually assisted my family with the necessary preparation for the upcoming ski season. Although I haven't utilized them for patio furniture, I am always excited to go there to get new gear for the current year of skiing. The staff is awesome and any comments to the contrary is sour grapes, or someone trying to manipulate the system. They sell ski and snowboard gear. The selection is extensive, and the employees know their merchandise. They provide insightful, educated opinions and I can't be more thankful for them. One of my favorites is Ann, because she reminds me of my sister, and can't do enough to help someone. The rest of the team rocks too. If you need gear, this seasons or crazy bargains from last year, this is your place. Period. read more

Had two amazing buying experiences at the Plainview, Long Island location this weekend. On Friday 9/29 I went into the store at the start of the sale and was promptly helped by a knowledgeable and wonderful employee named Riley. Bought myself a new set of skis with his help, steering me in the right direction at the budget I set for myself. Returned on Sunday 10/2 with my family for seasonal rentals for my boys and bought another new set up for my wife, including boots. He made sure she tried on two different boots at the same time in order to feel the difference. She left there knowing that she was going to be much more comfortable in one over the other. Typically, people have a tendency to only write about negative experiences and not enough time is spent writing the positive. It is worth noting the time, effort and knowledge Riley put into my needs. read more

Chris was very helpful, knowledgeable and personable when my husband and I rented skis for the season. He was very prompt in getting them ready for us to take that evening. read more

Walked in like a deer in head lights- completely lost and not even knowing where to start looking for what I came in for. Was greeted by Gaby who was incredibly sweet. Told her I was looking for some snow pants but didn't want to spend too much as I only wear them once a year. She took me over to the clearance rack and went through my options with me. Then after setting me up in the room, she continued to come check on me, even though she was all the way up at the register. When I finally found a pair I liked, she then helped me find some comfy socks too. The store is big, and has tons of stock- but Gaby made it seem not so overwhelming, and even helped me with a smile on. You've got a new customer. Thank you so much- can't wait to wear my new goodies in VT next week! read more

So unfortunate that Matt H. had a bad experience here. I came here with the boy with the intention of getting him some new snowboarding boots for Christmas last year. The guy helping us was more than helpful so I was pretty impressed with the service. Not to mention, they have a wide range of selection for anything snow+sport related. The parking lot outside of this place is awful though. Try your best to not hit someone when you back out. Or better yet, try to park first. read more

Absolutely horrible experience. I waited for 2 solid hours just to rent skis, and there were only about 7 people ahead of me. Renting ski itself took one solid hour (we were a group of 6). I understood this might be due to the fact that there was only one staff working on ski renting and that this time of the year was busy, but this efficiency was unbelievably low. Secondly, the pricing stated at the rental area was different from the pricing stated at the checkout place. I paid an extra $30 for each person than I expected. But I didn't wanna just leave for this extra price because I've already been here for three hours just to rent these skis. This is the most horrible renting experience I've ever had in my life. Definitely not coming again and I'll warn my friends against coming to this place. If I can give a zero or negative star in Yelp, I'll do that. read more

Terrible customer service. The staffs were trying to pass their job to each other in front us. We couldn't even try the boots because they did not want to bring out the sizes. Will never go back again. read more

Worst service ever! Lazy and rude staff! Wanted to purchase 4 sets of skis but staff turned us away because we came 1 hour before they closed. Automatically assumed we would take too long even before we asking what we needed. So many unemployed people.... Please find better staff! read more

Fantastic store!!! Chris (the store manager) spent the entire morning with my daughter, fitting and molding the shoes for her, and explaining how to adjust them. Chris also told her that the shoes and bindings will be attached to the skies on a short notice, to help my daughter get ready to her skiing trip in 2 days (it normally takes up to a week). She is the gold standard of a store manager!! I will recommend this store to all my friends. Anatoly read more

Every time I've been here it's been a great experience. Fred helped us the last few times and he was an absolute pleasure. He never pushed us towards a certain product, has so much knowledge on all things ski related, and patience! 5 stars! -Kailey & Nik read more

I just left Sun and Ski in Plainview and I have to say I left feeling like a family member! Store manager Christine was eager to help, answer any and all questions and fulfill a very short notice request for a binding adjustment to my new boots with a tune and wax all on just a few days notice so I can enjoy opening day at Mount Snow! Not to mention that their selection of gear and equipment far surpasses anyone else's! I will always be a very loyal and happy customer at my favorite store on Long Island!!! Thanks again to Christine and her amazing staff!!! read more

Don't listen to Jeffrey's review below. The bootfitters did him a favor by not rushing to fit him in 45 minutes. If you're coming for new boots and want the right fit and the perfect boot, be prepared to spend a good 2 hours here trying on boots and walking around. I cannot say enough great things about my experience. I used to come here as a kid when it was ski stop and stopped in on my way back up to Boston. I was greeted by Fred, who asked me all the questions he needed before bringing out several pairs of boots. He was patient, answered all of my 500,000 questions and was incredibly polite! I'm really new to skiing so I was a little apprehensive about the fit (ski boots aren't your favorite pair of Nikes after all) and whether they'd be too tight, but when I finally got out on the mountain I couldn't believe the amount of control I had in my new boots!! If Fred didn't take the time to make adjustments, bring variations of boot lasts for me to try, I wouldn't have gotten into the right boot. I can't speak to other bootfitters but if I were going- I'd be sure to ask for Fred! He gave me 100% of his attention and didn't leave me until we were ready to walk out with my new boots! He was AWESOME! The service here was GREAT!! Everyone is super helpful and patient. They don't push the product but offer their assistance when needed. You can tell everyone is very knowledgeable and looking to make sure you have a great time in the mountain! 5 stars for me!! If i still lived on long island this would absolutely be my go to ski store. I will definitely be back!! read more

Went in there to purchase new ski boots. Arrived at 8:15 when they close at 9:00. The staff told me they couldn't help me as it would take too long and they close at 9:00. After leaving I called the manager to ask about this and she agreed that they wouldn't assist since it was too late. With the brusque way I was treated, I was seemingly an interruption of their day. I guess business is good as they have no problem turning away customers ready to spend money. read more
