I’m arriving in Whistler in just over a week stopping through vancouver and I was wondering where the best and cheapest place is to buy all new gear. I’m looking at buying new a new board, boots, bindings and also a new outfit so I’m prepared to spend a bit of money. Where is the best place, offers the best discounts and will offer the best assistance?
Is there a big price difference between Whistler and Vancouver?
Any help will be great!
Boardroom in Vancouver. http://www.boardroomshop.com/main/
Speak to Mark or Ian and tell them you are from Boardworld - they may be able to give you a discount.
You can also try Showcase. http://www.showcasesnowboards.com/
In Whistler…
Showcase, Comor, The Cirlce etc. There’s quite a few good stores.
There shouldn’t be a price difference between Vancouver and Whistler.
