Ski & Snowboard Swap at Brimacombe
October 15, 2023 @ 8:00 am - 4:00 pm
Sell your old equipment. Buy something new (or new-ish)!
Whether you’re looking for a deal on brand new equipment we’ve carried over from last season, or you’re searching for the right size used equipment, we’ll have a great selection of new & pre-owned skis, boards, boots, outerwear, accessories and more.
No experience fitting equipment? No problem! We will have volunteers and team members from Slopeside Skis & Boards on-site to answer all the questions you might have.
Bullwheel Grill + Eatery will also be open with a limited menu to get your poutine fix before the season!
