It takes a LOT for me to leave public, negative feedback. Sadly, I am today because a very close friend of mine was treated very badly and made to feel embarrassed. If you've had a better experience - great! If you've gotten poor customer service - or have not yet shopped there and you decide to give it a try and it doesn't go well - just keep in mind it doesn't seem to be a one time thing. Maybe worth considering what businesses you support.

Plus, some of their skateboards are from an eco-friendly company that plants 1 tree for every certain number of boards sold.

They also told me about great places around the area since I'm currently moving here. :)

I've been here multiple times for snowboard stuff, as a complete beginner…read more For myself, I got my entire setup here, board, boots, and binding. Sasha helped me and she was great, making sure everything worked for my body and my needs. I also brought in my daughter's stuff because we had problems with the boots and bindings (marketplace purchase because we weren't sure she'd stick with it). I expected to have to buy new bindings. They didn't sell me anything that I didn't need and they shared all of their experience to help us solve the problem. I am SO thankful for everything they shared, there is no way we'd have reached that point on our own. We worked with Travis and Matt who were really awesome. I definitely recommend coming here if you have any issues or unique needs, or if you need a new setup or are a beginner. Also, stop in just for your regular stuff! They have a huge selection of all of the layers and accessories. Obviously there are expensive things, but it isn't an uncomfortable sales environment at all.

I have conservatively spent over $4000 at this establishment over the past several years, and I keep coming back despite the profound lack of customer service that I've experienced previously. But they're the only show in town, and what can you do right? Well, today was the last straw. I was literally the only customer in the store. Not only did nobody ask me if I need it any assistance, but while I was browsing in the children's section, one of their technicians walked by me, kicked me in the shins, bumped me into the clothing rack and didn't apologize or say excuse me. He didn't even acknowledge that I was there. It's bad enough that most ski bums are drunk or high while they're working, in addition to being allergic to basic customer service. It's even worse when they assault you while they're ignoring you. I will never, ever ever ever set foot in an Arlberg again.

Definitely a place to do some shopping if your visiting the area.
