Why Reserve at Vincent Sports ?
- Outstanding Advance Booking Discount
- Online booking discount on top of our already competitive in store prices
- Beware shops advertising bigger percentage discounts but still more expensive than us !
- High Quality Ski Equipment
- All our stock is top quality / up-to-date ski kit, to give you maximum enjoyment on the slopes
- All our skis are serviced before every rental, this year we've invested in a Montana Snow Cruiser robot to help out
- Don't disappoint yourself by hiring low quality / old kit / which hasn't been serviced
- No Hidden Extras
- Insurance against damage is included in the price, most other shops will ask you to pay extra when you arrive to collect your skis
- You're welcome to return to the shop at any point during your rental and exchange your kit for equivalent kit at no extra cost
- Central Location
- The shop is located in the centre of Chatel village, opposite the church square
- Only 150 metres from the Super Chatel ski area
- The free Chatel buses all depart & return from outside the shop
- Big Shops, Big Queues !
- Nobody wants to spend an hour queuing up for boots, then skis, and again at the desk
- We always strive to serve our customers as swiftly as possible, and usually manage this with very little waiting
- Convenience
- Free ski storage for clients - if you use the free buses to travel to the slopes you need only hop across the road from the bus terminus and drop off your skis in storage room. No need to carry them all the way back to your accommodation. In the morning just grab your kit before jumping on the bus.
- Free parking outside the shop - the shop has several parking bays directly outside exclusively for client use
- Thinking of buying new boots ?
- Buying new boots can be tricky, they might feel great in the shop but after a few hours on the mountain you could have changed your mind. Quite a problem if you bought in the UK, but not if you bought from Vincent Sports. For a start the staff have an expert knowledge in fitting boots so you shouldn't experience any problems, but if you do you can return the boots to the shop and just pay for the rental.
