Planning a family ski trip to Fraser or Winter Park is one of the best ways to create lasting winter memories. Watching your kids experience the mountains for the first time — or seeing them gain confidence on the slopes — is something every parent looks forward to. But before you hit the lifts, it’s important to make sure your children have the right equipment. At XSports Ski Broker, we know how crucial it is for young skiers and snowboarders to have properly fitted gear that’s safe, comfortable and fun to use.
This guide covers everything parents need to know about kids’ ski and snowboard rentals in the Winter Park / Fraser area, from choosing the right equipment to tips for making the rental process smooth and stress-free.
Kids grow fast — and that means last year’s ski boots or snowboard might already be too small. Buying new gear every season can get expensive, especially for families with multiple children. Renting your kids’ ski and snowboard gear helps you save money while ensuring they always have equipment that fits right and performs correctly.
At XSports Ski Broker, our kids’ ski and snowboard rental packages and season rental options are designed to make it easy for parents. We offer flexible rental durations, affordable rates and properly maintained gear that’s adjusted for each child’s size and skill level. Whether it’s their first day on the slopes or their fifth season riding, we make sure they’re set up for success.
For kids, comfort and safety start with proper fitting gear. A pair of boots that’s too big or a snowboard that’s too long can make it harder to learn and can lead to frustration or even injury. Our techs take the time to measure, fit, and adjust every piece of equipment so your child feels comfortable and confident.
When your child feels stable and balanced on their skis or board, they’ll progress faster and have more fun. We size everything carefully — from ski length to boot fit to binding tension — so that young skiers and riders can focus on learning and enjoying their day.
We recommend reserving your kids’ rentals ahead of time through our rental page to ensure we have the right sizes ready when you arrive. Our seasonal rental program is on a first-come, first-served basis—call the shop at 970-726-8882 for details.
Every child learns at their own pace, and having the right gear helps make that learning process smoother. Our inventory includes gear for toddlers, young kids, and teenagers, so no matter their age or experience level, we’ve got them covered.
For younger children just starting out, we have lightweight skis and boards designed for easy control and stability. Older kids and teens can choose from more advanced models that let them explore the mountain and practice new skills.
We also offer youth-friendly accessories, including helmets and poles, to make sure your kids are fully equipped for their day on the snow.
We know traveling with kids means managing a lot of details, which is why we make the rental process fast and simple. Our shop is conveniently located near Winter Park Resort and downtown Fraser and is on the way to Granby Ranch Ski Resort, so you can pick up your gear on the way to the slopes.
When you reserve online, our team prepares your family’s equipment in advance and will be ready for fitting. No waiting in long lines or scrambling to find the right sizes. You can also add adult rentals to the same reservation, so everyone in your group is taken care of in one easy visit.
Our friendly staff knows how to make kids feel comfortable and excited to get on the snow. We take time to help them get familiar with their gear and answer any questions parents might have about fit or equipment use.
Large resort rental counters can be overwhelming, especially for families. The lines are long, the prices are higher, and the staff doesn’t always have time to give personal attention. Choosing a locally owned shop like XSports Ski Broker gives you the opposite experience — personalized service, affordable pricing, and a friendly environment where your kids can get the care they deserve.
