Save on 2015/16 Ski & Snowboard Packages!

Ready for a new setup? Like to save a buck (or a couple hundred)? Our package pricing is going to make your day.

Here’s how things work at Shep’s:

On each equipment item (skis, snowboards, boots, bindings), you’ll see the retail price and our Shep’s Sale Price. That means in 95% of the cases (each + every time the manufacturer allows us to), we give you a deal. Just need a new pair of skis, but love your current boots and bindings? Yes, you’ll get a sale price. Love your snowboard and bindings but want to update your boots? You’ll get a sale price too. Sale prices all around.

It gets even BETTER when you buy in a “package”. Think of it like bundling. Need new skis AND bindings? Or a new board AND boots? Skis, boots, and bindings? Anytime you buy two or more pieces of the setup, Package Pricing takes the stage, and the sale prices on each of those items is even better.

Below you’ll see some sample packages we created for you. You’ll see the parts that are included, the retail price, and all the money you’ll save with Shep’s Package Price. But don’t forget, you can make a package out of anything on our wall. We won’t limit you to only these pieces, we’ll help you choose this ski and that boot, or this binding and that board, to get you the best setup for your style & skill.
