Are you hitting the slopes over Christmas, maybe for New Year’s Eve or in the next few months? Well if you’ve looked in your wardrobe and can’t find your gear? Fear not as INTERSPORT is here to the rescue.
Europe’s number one rental ski rental service is available in 14 countries – so no matter where’s you’re heading, you’re never far away from kitting yourself and family out in the very best.
To make things even better, for those skiing with children up to 10 years old in Austria, can rent skis and snowboards for free when two adults are paying.
Those that are aged up to 14 years old get 50% off, not to mention free cancellation and rent items for seven days – but pay for just six.
Now to keep costs down even further, we’ve actually managed to get you an exclusive discount code and money off your next hire – how good is that? All you need to do is enter the code METROSKI then voila.
It’s never been easier to rent everything you and your family need for an afternoon on the slopes
From skis to snowboards, even clothing, toboggans and snowshoes!
So now you can forget about over paying for heavy luggage and having those sneaky extra costs of added baggage on budget airlines – which can cost an additional £50+, and you ‘piste’ off before you’ve left the country.
Whether you’re an absolute pro or new to skiing, INTERSPORT make it really easy to rent items. Better yet, you’ll often find shops located right near the lifts – so as soon as you’ve scoffed down all the melted cheese your heart can handle, you can literally hit the slopes hassle-free.
We recommend pre-booking your equipment to speed everything up, and all you need to do it collect your items, and make the most of that fresh morning snow. You’ll get a QR code and all you need to do is show that to someone in store, who will be able to find everything you’ve selected with ease.
Costing from as little as £12.80 a day in France and £20.60 in Austria and Switzerland, there’s never been a better time to rent everything you’ll need – especially if this is your first time skiing and you never make it past ski school, and the furthest you get is the bar…
You’ll also find a huge range of skis from top brands like Volkl, Head, Atomic, Rossignol, Salomon, Fischer, and K2 – so even when you have ‘all the gear and no idea’, at least you’ll look the part.
There’s also the option to swap your skis through your rental period with no added cost and if you fancy giving snowboarding a go, well now you can.
From boots to skis, poles and a helmet – INTERSPORT will have everything your heart desires. And to make things even better, selected Intersport stores carry backcountry touring skis, toboggans, snowshoes, clothing (only available in Austria), avalanche air bags, avalanche receivers, probes and shovels, and virtually all other mountain or snowsports equipment needed during the winter. Winner.
Excuse us, we’re off to watch Chalet Girl and get in the mood for our next ski-break.
