Wave Rave has some polarizing ratings, but I implore you to do what I did and ignore all the bad ones. My boyfriend and I both had a great experience with all the employees, but specifically; Joey, Patrick, and Jimmy. They got me set up with a solid demo board (that I ended up purchasing), answered all of our questions, suggested a few changes to stance settings and binding placement, and made good enough recommendations that my boyfriend also bought a new board. I have zero complaints about my experience. I get the feeling that they're happy to match your energy, so go in with some common sense and a good attitude and you'll get the same in return.

After a long day of snowboarding at Mammoth and having to deal with my crappy bindings, I had to call it. We drove home and as we passed Bishop, I wanted to check out their offerings. Didn't really expect to come out buying anything, but the guys working there were so cool, so knowledgeable, so helpful, and they had what I needed! Plus, their deals were amazing! I couldn't pass it up. I highly recommend this quaint spot for their great deals and great company!

I love this shop…read more It has racks and racks and shelves and shelves of outdoors gear and clothing for all of your outdoorsy adventures. I can just dive into this place and find something cool, whether I've been looking for it, or not! This visit, I did not have much time available for a "deep dive", but still found a couple of pairs of pants for winter snowshoeing this season for a great price. ( Yes, there is a dressing room for making sure something fits.) The staff working here are helpful and knowledgeable. This place has a lot of consignment stock, so you never know what you'll find. For all of the gear heads who need to thin out your gear closets, this is a place to find new homes for your gently used gear. I wish it were closer to where I live.

It was beyond nice that we had wonderful service to help get us set up with equipment. We were sized right and efficiently helped and out the door asap. I was a lil skeptical when I saw the rush of picking up equipment since they have a 5:30 pm deadline and there was a line, however it went FAST and they were SUPER helpful and NICE! Also this was a super busy time of year right after New Year's Day and some fresh powder was hitting. The Green Room is located conveniently on Main St between Shat's Bakery and Puerto Vallarta Restaurant. So you can grab some grub before or after. They have plenty of parking and large street signage so they are easy to find. The prices are more than fair and competitive so definitely come here if you are looking for Great Equipment, wonderful service, and any stuff you may want to buy to use on the mountain too - they have a great layout and a lot of stuff you are looking for and need to make your experience that much better.

Be extremely careful with fences installed by ski patrol out of nowhere. They sometimes make…read moremistakes and install fences that do not make any sense that weren't even there that very same day, on the very same line. You will be better off throwing yourself into the ground at high speed to be able to stop on time, and walk around it, or you risk of being threatened like a criminal to cancel your pass, and to only use an easy line. On Friday, January 9th, I used a nice black diamond line 3 times from 9-11:30 am, no fence whatsoever, everything perfectly safe. While trying to run it for a 4th time at around 12:45, I noticed a "safety fence" on exactly the exit of that line, on a place that wouldn't make any sense. I already committed to the line, and was going at a decent speed. I tried to be polite enough, not destroying the fence but rather going under it. The ski patrol was finishing the fence close to where I crossed it, so he proceeded to threaten me like a criminal to cancel my pass and felt with the authority to order me to use Academy only. Weird thing, I tried to run the line again at like 2:30 pm, but planned to use a slightly different exit to avoid that fence, and for some "strange" reason, the fence I crossed and that I was threatened for, wasn't even there anymore. That tells me that someone made a mistake and just put a fence on a place that didn't make any sense whatsoever, and that would have actually made the run more dangerous instead of safer. Not even try to e-mail China Peak, they won't own their mistake, and essentially they will threaten you again over email to cancel you pass. This is not the friendly resort that it used to be anymore, take your business to Dodge Ridge, Bear Valley, or Mountain High, they still have the vibe.

The instructors have helped our little snowboard to his potential, enough for him to go on the lifts and the food and drinks have always been great. This year it looks like they improved some of the hang out spots and that is awesome. One thing I would recommend, is more eyes on the bathrooms, there are some that are almost always blocked or out of toilet paper. So maybe more checks on those around the area in general.

I saw all the Black Diamond heat around when I first entered the main store and felt hopeful. And...yes! They had one in stock! I was able to examine it and look at the quality construction/sewing of this spiffy tent. And bought it. Thanks, Jake!

BE VERY WARY of the Boot Fit bullshit or falling for the Upsell on Service. It is NON EXISTENT…read more Purchased $700 New Boots in March 25, expert skier. They were fit with fanfare lip-service that "Kitterdge stands behind boot fit for a full year and they will address any fit issues, no problem." I skied wearing New Boots only 2-hours at Mammoth prior to major wind/snow storm that forced lifts to close and us to leave. So, at start of 2026, sadly I experienced pain, gaps below food bed, shin blisters and general dismay on the fit of New Boots. With receipts, settings and Business Card for original fitter in hand I called and was asked; . . . "If I was sure that I had bought them there?" Then I was challenged with attitude; "So, you had them fit, skied them, and now have an issue with the fit?" I was blown off completely with the statement; "I am very busy here, will get back to you." Haven't heard a thing. NOTHING !
