About Slopeside Sports
Slopeside Sports is a family-owned and operated ski and snowboard rental shop that has been serving Park City visitors since 1983, making it one of the longest-running independent rental operations in town. Located at 1355 Lowell Avenue — steps from the Park City Mountain Resort base area and the Town Lift on Historic Main Street — the shop occupies a sweet spot between slopeside convenience and the charm of Park City's walkable Old Town core. Four decades of continuous operation in a market dominated by resort-managed chains and national franchises speaks to the quality of their equipment, the fairness of their pricing, and the genuine expertise of their staff.
The rental fleet spans every ability level, with beginner, intermediate, and expert packages available in both ski and snowboard configurations. Performance and demo packages feature current-season equipment from leading manufacturers, allowing advanced riders to test the latest models on Park City Mountain Resort's 7,300 acres — the largest ski resort in the United States. Skilled technicians match each guest to the appropriate equipment based on height, weight, ability, and the type of terrain they plan to ride, and every fitting includes a thorough boot assessment using their selection of narrow, average, and wide-width rental boots. This attention to boot width is unusual in a rental shop and can make a significant difference in comfort and control, especially for riders with non-standard foot shapes.
Complimentary overnight ski storage is included with every rental, eliminating the hassle of carrying equipment back to your hotel or condo at the end of each day. The shop's technicians tune every pair of rental skis between uses, ensuring that edges are sharp and bases are waxed for the next morning. Online reservations are available and recommended during peak periods, with discounted rates for advance bookings. For visitors who want the reliability, fair pricing, and personal service that only comes from a family-run shop with 40 years of Park City experience, Slopeside Sports is a proven choice.
