Preseason Alpine Ski & Snowboard Package Prices

All through September we get down and dirty with our ski gear. Don’t judge us, we’re doing it for you! The lowest price of the year is yours on new 2019-20 ski and snowboard equipment when you buy a complete package. How little will you pay? Scroll and peek, then hurry in. These low prices end September 20, 2019.

Disclaimer: you can build your own package from all of our gear choices. We’ll give you the lowest possible price on each item: ski+ boot+ binding+ pole or board+boot+binding.

Our sample alpine ski packages don’t include Boots. You’ll pay the lowest price of the season on any ski boot you fancy when you buy a complete package! The price you see here DOES include binding installation and adjustment. Remember – safety first! ps. Bring both boots to us if you’re using old boots with your new ski package so we can set the bindings.

Adult sample alpine ski packages are shown next. But remember! You can build your own favorite gear into your new favorite package. These are just samples including our entry level bindings and ski poles, and not including boots:

Hey snowboarders! We got you. Nidecker has a place on our display this season, alongside K2 and Nitro. Build your own package to go home with one of these:

Dungeon Sale 2018: Used & New Ski and Snowboard Gear

October 24-28, 2018  

October 24-29, 2022

  • Wed, Thur, Fri:  9am-8pm
  • Sat 9am-5pm
  • Sun 11am-5pm

Dungeon Sale is Wausau’s biggest sales event of ski season!  If you’re brave enough to head to the basement of our 110+ year-old building, you’ll find crazy low prices on used and new ski and snowboard equipment for the entire family.

Shep’s accepts used gear through October 10 for consignment sale.  We help price it unless you know exactly what you want out of it, and keep only 10% consignment fee (when swaps keep 20%).  After your used items sell, you’ve got ‘Shep’s Bucks’ store credit to use toward the purchase of any of our products or services.

We set the used gear up alongside our own inventory of new gear (left over from last season) and make it easy by installing ski and snowboard bindings so you only have one price to consider.

Kids gear goes fast, so most years there is a line at the door before our Wednesday morning opening at 9:00am.  Have no fear, there is usually enough selection to satisfy shoppers all through the five-day event.  The basement is stocked with Alpine Ski, X-C Ski and Snowboard equipment.

You’ll want to shop upstairs too, where the latest 2018-19 gear is also on sale along with the season’s best outerwear, sportswear and accessories like helmets, goggles, wax, tuning supplies and more.  You can even combine the great used gear you find in the Dungeon with new equipment from upstairs at Shep’s low “package price.”  All clothing and accessories are at least 20% off during Dungeon Sale and we’ve got lots of other great specials going on.

To top it off we have crazy deals on shop work, like binding adjustments or re-mounts on dungeon gear for only $15, a full ski tune-up for only $34.99 (reg $55), and register to win a Free Granite Peak season pass which you can register for while you shop.

Once the Dungeon Sale is officially over, you are still free to shop the basement. (There’s just less to choose from!)

Oh yeah… don’t be alarmed when you leave the shop after the sale and run into a crowd on the sidewalk.  Shep’s is on the Paranormal Society’s Ghost Tour each year during Halloween Weekend.  Our spirits rarely make an appearance during the event though, so you’re safe in the Dungeon.  Mwaa ha ha ha  ha…

Dungeon Sale 2018 is October 24-28.  The sale is 9am-8pm Wed-Fri, 9am-5pm Saturday and 11am-5pm Sunday.  Dungeon Sale Rules

Suck up your courage, dig up the family and check our our frighteningly fun sale.  

Customer Account Balances expire five years from purchase/issuing.  This includes Gift Cards, Warranty Refunds, Consignment Sale Account Credit and any others

Dungeon Sale 2018: Used & New Ski Gear

Dig up the family and head to the Dungeon for used and new ski and snowboard gear priced so low it’s frightening. Wausau’s biggest ski sale features discounted outerwear, sportswear and footwear for fall and winter too.

Dungeon Sale is Wausau’s most spirited ski event!  If you’re brave enough to head to the basement of our 120- year-old building, you’ll find frighteningly good deals on used and new ski and snowboard equipment.  Shop for the entire family: novice and expert skiers and snowboarders, young and old, plus clothes and shoes for those who love snow as those who don’t.

Shep’s accepts used, healthy ski gear through October 10th for consignment sale.  We help price it for you and keep only 10% consignment fee (when swaps keep 20%).  After your used items sell, you’ve got ‘Shep’s Bucks’ store credit to use toward the purchase of any of our products or services.

Used gear is set up alongside our own inventory of new gear (left over from last season) to make it east to shop for the best value and best equipment for your needs.  We adjust the ski bindings to your unique setting criteria, for only $10.

Kids gear goes fast, as do freestyle (twin tip) skis, so most year’s there is a line at the door before our Wednesday morning opening at 9:00am.  Have no fear, there is usually enough selection to satisfy shoppers all through the five-day event.  The basement is stocked with Alpine Ski, X-C Ski and Snowboard equipment.  (No advance sales and no holding equipment.  First come, first shop!)

You’ll want to shop upstairs too, where the latest 2018-19 gear is also on sale along with outerwear, sportswear and accessories like helmets, goggles, wax, tuning supplies and more.  You can even combine the great used gear you find in the Dungeon with new equipment from upstairs at Shep’s low “package price.”  All clothing and accessories are at least 20% off during Dungeon Sale and we’ve got lots of other great specials going on.

If you’re planning to hit the slopes of Granite Peak or mountains farther away, the trails at Nine Mile Forest or points north, or just want to stay warm in trend setting fashions and footwear, we’ll see you at Dungeon Sale in Downtown Wausau.

ps  You may have heard we are haunted.  Have no fear, our spirits are friendly.
