We booked online to save a few quid, shop was quiet when we arrived, gave them the booking ref and away we went, staff were pleasant enough, ski's were pretty new, we have our own boots, so cant comment on those, everything went smoothly. Shop is about 50 metres from the Crystal lodge Hotel, which was handy cos that is... More

Visited Whistler last month and ordered our skis in advance. On arrival they were there are as promised. When we realized that the skis were not suitable for us alternatives were offered the next day. A great service. More

Rented from store across from our condo which was super convenient. We were able to store our skis and our shoes everyday at another Affinity store located in the village which was even more convenient! Service was great (especially Bruce and Taylor) so we will rent again next year. More

My Girlfriend and I rented from them on December 27th 2011. We are both advanced level skiers. The service just ok, they need more benches for people to sit when trying on boots. The skis are great I was on a pair of new $1300.00 Volkl's. Both our boots looked like they'd been through the War. Totally beat up and... More

I rented skis for my wife here and it was the worst rental experience I've ever had. The staff was extremely unfriendly and unhelpful. It wasn't even that busy but they all had the attitude that they would rather you not be in this rental shop. The skis we got were very beat up and the cost to value was... More

Dear Rover King, We were shocked by your experience in our rental store, we pride our selves on good service and would like to be given another chance to look after you and your family. We purchase brand new top of the line skis each year and have two tuning shops to keep the skis in the best condition. The... More

In most tourist areas it's obvious that sometimes service is compromised because the staff knows they may never see you again. That's not the feeling you get with Affinity Sports. From start to finish our interactions with their staff were first class. They took the time to explain everything to our full group - which included two adults in their... More

Ski Rental prices in Whistler are pretty much the same no matter where you go. The big difference is the quality of the gear and the service you get. Affinity Sports have locations all over the resort. We used the shop at the clock tower just across the square from the Gondola stations. The skies we rented were new high... More

If you're renting your skiing or snowboarding equipment in Whistler, consider Affinity Sports. They have locations throughout the village, and I had an especially good experience at Affinity IV. My boyfriend and I rented snowboards for two days, and we were impressed with the gentleman who served us from the start. He carefully considered our height/weight and skill level before... More
