Ski Renter of Mountain View

The best ski rental in the area! The guys working there are super nice and they help you a lot finding the perfect boots and skis for you according your necessities! On weekends is pretty crowded it’s better if you arrive early

Absolutely wonderful family owned business! My family has been renting gear here for the past 7 – 8 years, and we never rent from anywhere else. Very helpful, even stayed open late for us one time so that we could return our skis. Remember to get there early in the season to get measured, then you can reserve on the phone. And do reserve on weekends and holidays because everyone loves their gear!

We rent two sb package here, the guys are great! They taught you how to adjust the board very very patiently! And they are super nice and really takes time into doing it. The rate is awesome compare to ski resort and sports basement or any others. Highly highly recommended!
Came again oh god they are just wonderful!!! Spend 30+ mins on every customer! Gives you a lot advise and adjust the ski soooooo carefully!

Excellent customer service … For a beginner like me it’s important to have the right equipment to help not runaway from skiing :) great job guys

Excellent service by people who actually care about their work. Everyone there was friendly, helpful, knowledgable, patient. They know what they are doing. Great for fitting kids gear!!! Best rental price around too! I believe it is a family run business and we want to support THOSE!!!

Awesome service. Every time I’ve rented from them I’ve loved the equipment and the service.
In addition, I recently had to return skis 8 hours after picking them up because I had to cancel my ski trip (due to illness) and they ended up giving me a full refund even after I insisted on paying something for their work to fit the skis (and for the fact I did take the skis out of the shop for almost a full business day). To expect a full refund after taking the skis out of the shop would be completely unreasonable. This is definitely going above and beyond and has made me a customer for life! Highly recommend.

These guys are very knowledgeable, helpful and nice. Quantity of all equipment (skis, boots, etc) and wearable (jacket, pants, etc) is excellent and at cheaper costs.
I got my skis mixed up at the mountain and it took 2 weeks to get them back, but these nice folks didn’t charge extra rental for that duration !

A hidden gem locked away in the middle of a business area.
For the last two years since my fiancé and I have become more frequent snowboarders, we’ve always sought out to rent our gear at Ski Renter. It’s a family run establishment and the guys who run the place are really good about remember their frequent customers. They maintain a record of your previous rented equipment in their system so renting gear is quick and easy. My fiancé works in MV so he just picks up my rentals for me and I don’t have to go in myself to try things on. It’s super convenient!
When I was first renting from them, I remember how helpful they were. I was having issues finding a helmet that fit correctly and the sales guy was super patient with me and helped me find the perfect helmet that didn’t squeeze my head.
If you are local, I highly recommend this place. The rental prices are much better than renting at the mountain or any big brand name store.

Helpful staff, low prices. Wish they also rented goggles and gloves.

What a hidden gem! I’ve decided to give my first ski /​snowboarding rental reviews to this great small business! Their equipments are always in good condition, and staff there is extremely friendly to help you. Whether you are new to the snow sports or you have any questions regarding to equipments or even snowboarding /​ski skill, they are really patient to help you all they can! In addition to the great service, they provide the lowest rental prices among all snowboard /​ski rental I’ve been in the bay area. This place definitely worth to check out if you don’t know where to rent your snow sports equipments!

Great service! First time ever renting in the South Bay and bringing gear up to Tahoe. The owners and staff are knowledgeable and friendly, helpful and detail oriented. The wait time was never long, and the location is close to work for easy pickup/​return. Will definitely be back. Thank you!

So happy these guys made it through the endless summer. We have rented here for years and are always treated like family. They all care about what they do. Cheers!

Ski Renter of Mountain View is the kind of place every business should aspire to be. They do what they do very, very well, offer the lowest prices around, and consistently provide customer service that goes above and beyond our expectations.
We’ve rented from Ski Renter for years; their equipment is always current and in great condition. The two brothers that own/​run the shop take extra time to talk to us about our skiing style and needs and to recommend equipment that would work best for us. When my husband and I became good enough/​regular enough skiers that it was time for us to purchase our own equipment, it was on the recommendation of these guys — even though that meant they lost business because of it.
Nowadays, we bring our own equipment here for waxes and tune-​ups, and we rent skis and snowboards for our growing kids. When we have had last-​minute needs they go out of their way to get us our equipment when we need it, even during very busy times. I trust their recommendations on what repairs are needed; they charge less for repairs than big chain sports stores and do a better job. They’ve saved me money unneeded repairs that clueless guys behind the counter at other shops have reccommened.

Leslie was super helpful when it came to reserving our ski outfits. It was Tuesday, December 22^nd, a packed late afternoon during the week of Christmas holidays. The lines were long but he let us in to make our reservations since it was just the ski outfits and not the equipments. He juggled between his clients and assisted us time and time again without losing his calm. Although it ended up taking 2 hours to finally make our reservations for a pick up three days later, he figured it would be that much more easier on us as well as him to take our confirmed orders the same day. He asked us only to confirm the clothes we kept on hold on the day we were to pick it up. I also rented the helmets the same day but when I came to know our lesson package included the helmets I asked if u could return it on the day we came to confirm the items on hold. The store has no refund policy but only a store credit. When my friends went to return the ski outfits he not only gave them the credit of $ 18 that due but also $ 2 extra since they didn’t have any cash on them.
Leslie truly went above and beyond his role of customer obsession and I would definitely recommend his assistance for anyone who needs to rent gears, outfits or equipments from this place, which by the way is super economical and very affordable for novice skiers like myself.
Thank you Leslie! You are awesome :)

I’ve been sitting in this shop for about an hour and have been passed over a few times. Very frustrating. Once it was just from being forgotten about and one time was because of a customer who pushed his way to the front. But they let him. Granted, it’s very busy and the snow’s good in Tahoe but this is ridiculous. The service was inefficient and our experience has been frustrating. Not coming back.

Long line, but great service!

That was fast and good deal, but i think $ 39 for 1 day rental that’s a bit more than i expected.

i love this place! the staff is super amiable and helpful.
they rent me the cutest board i’ve had!
the price is also really reasonable.
they do not charge you for the pick up AND drop off day. so i only had to pay 1 day price (which is the day I am actually on the slopes).
helmet is only $ 5 to rent.
overall, i had a great experience here! will come again.

Exceptional service. They repaired one pair of skis and installed new bindings on another pair. The owners of the store are knowledgeable folks who gave me and my skis all attention I needed. They have repaired bottom of my skis well above my expectations. The work is done on time with an excellent quality.

Seriously, the best ski rental and repair shop. If you live anywhere near them, this is the only place you should be going to.
I’ve been going to Ski Renter since maybe 2011. I own my own set of skis, and this is the place where I get all my repair/​tune-​up work done. They’re inexpensive, crazy thorough, and do a superb job. The biggest repair they ever did for me was after I ran up on some rocks on Kirkwood and gouged a few holes in my skis. They fixed the skis as good as new, and did it for super cheap!
Rentals here are awesome too. I’ve rented powder skis a couple times here, and I’ve referred numerous friends to them too. They have a surprisingly large stock of skis and snowboards. Their service is fantastic. They are patient and willing to walk you through the process if you’re new to renting. And again, all at a great price!
Really, I can’t praise this place enough. I’ll be using them for as long as I’m in the area.
