    I ordered a premium snowboard but they clearly only had one type so I may as well have hired a beginner one and saved some money. The condition of the board was poor, I took it back and asked to have it sharpened but the following day the edges were still very blunt.

    The store is easy to find in the centre of Val Thorens. The staff were very patient and helpful, particularly Roman, who helped with our boot fitting. Collecting our equipment at 3pm the day before meant that there were no queues and no pressure. Equipment was not pristine, it was late in the season, but was all perfectly good condition and worked well. Thanks Team Skimium!

    The staff were great. I’m a 50 yr old woman and I ski a lot in BC - mostly Whistler. I was delighted to be treated like a skier by your staff member, and not like a 51 yr old woman who sometimes skis. He was great & helped me out when I switched skis after two days.

    Skis were ready after 6pm day before or morning of rental period - this is a little later than my experience in other shops (usually after 4:30pm). The skis set aside for me were not in the same category I had reserved however these were quickly changed for something closer to my expectation. They did provide a few options when asked. Skis were a new model and in good condition. Good value when bought with online discount.

    I was surprised that my younger daughter was given a longer set of skis than myself and my older daughter when the younger daughter is shorter and a less experienced skier than myself and my older daughter. I wished I had noticed that sooner. She struggled all four days of skiing.

    Very friendly, helpful service. Absolutely no problem at all when some of the group needed to change their skis. The only reason not given 5 is that we gave all our info up front, hight weight etc but were asked it again whilst fitting skis. Maybe the team could print off this info in readiness so we don’t have to say our weight publicly. Some people uncomfortable doing this.

    Poor selection of skis, no choice in ski size or different skis (told nothing longer than 174cm available in the store when both of us ski usually with longer skis!!) and the skis given were poorly maintained. Given boots based on what I said were my shoe size with no attempt to measure feet, so ended up with boots too big twice. Hire shop assistant did not appear knowledgeable nor helpful. Should have gone to Intersport or one of the other ski shops - where have had better experience before - regardless of discount codes and decathlon discount it wasn't worth it....you get better by paying a bit more elsewhere.

    I paid for intermediate skis but was given old worn skis which we refused and asked for refund. They then gave us fairly new skis which were grand . I also paid for insurance when booking but they said they knew nothing about that!

    We went to the shop at the bottom of the mountain where we were supposed to go to collect our equipment. We were greeted with a huge school trip, at 9am, and was told we’d be better off going up the mountain to the sister shop. We did this and after a long queue into this shop we were charged again for warranty and theft protection despite me explaining that I had already paid for this online but was told it wouldn’t count as it was through Skimium not their shop. We didn’t get on the slopes till 10:30am after all this.

    Friendly and very helpful. I didn’t take the original boots that were chosen for me, but the replacement ones were very wet inside after skiing which is the only reason for 4 stars. My hotel didn’t have a decent drying room though, so I returned two days later and they were easily changed. The following day, the wrong skis were taken on the ski lift (either by me or the other person) and in the evening the shop contacted me. I returned the “wrong” skis that evening and they replaced them with different ones. The others in our group had no issues throughout the week. Excellent service.

    Turned up and initially told I was in the wrong store. Went outside and walked in through a different door and saw the same lady that agreed I was in the correct place once she saw my booking reservation. Skis looked very poor quality and condition with much wear and tear. Not what I would expect for the top but one of your range. The original skis that were in the rack with my name were way too long despite giving correct information on the online reservation. Disappointing.
