braveheart 0 Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 Can anyone recommend a good ski hire shop in Niseko?....We are a family of 4 who are arriving from Australia in mid Jan for 12 days. An idea of prices would be good too!? Thanks, David. Link to post Share on other sites
jared 0 Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 At 12 days you may be better off buying gear on sale in Sapporo and giving it away when your done. (if you dont want to travel with it.) Or if you can travel with it then you could buy it at home (should be on sale now) and bring it with you. Even mid/low level gear should be better than rental stuff and you should be able to get that pretty cheap. Link to post Share on other sites
roy 0 Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Hi jared, Do you know where can i buy the gear in Sapporo? I am a beginner in snowboarding, how much for a full set of gear (include board,binding and boot)? Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
IM 0 Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Braveheart, There are many rental shops in Niseko (assuming Hirafu) and most of the shops do have good selction of boot sizes. But if you are worried about they may not have size for huge feet, then bring at least your boots. Link to post Share on other sites
jared 0 Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 Roy, I dont really know much about snowboards but at a wild guess you could get a board boots and bindings in some kind of set on sale for 40,000 if your lucky. havent spent much time in Sapporo so I cant really healp you. I just walked around the centre of town till I found a ski shop last time I got gear in Sapporo. Link to post Share on other sites
