Prices for ski rentals vary from shop to shop. American Ski Exchange is proud to have the best prices in Vail Village guaranteed!
Ski rental prices vary based on what type of ski you want to rent. Generally most stores offer at least two types of rental packages; sport and demo. Sport skis generally are cheaper and meant for absolute beginners who are learning the fundamentals of skiing and sticking to low angle, groomed terrain. The come in a one design fits most people. Demo skis are the newest skis from the top ski companies. They provide a more custom for fit for each skier and come in a wider variety of lengths, shapes (wide for powder, narrow for turning), different stiffness, and are gender specific. Anyone from a beginner to an advanced skier can use demo skis.
Sport Ski from Vail Sports or any other Vail owned shops cost about $60 a day. At American Ski Exchange they cost $32 for the same equipment.
A demo ski package package from the larger corporate stores will cost $80. At American Ski Exchange the same gear costs about $45. You could rent skis from American Ski Exchange, buy the staff a pizza and still save more money than renting skis from the other stores.
