Budget. Buy used skiies privately. I bought a set of Elan skis 188cm with some bindings for $60. Use them twice and rental is paid for. Do the same foe poles. Check rental pricing. If you can get boots poles board for less than 3 rentals. You got a great deal.
I will buy my own boots as well. Rentals are great if you are new and trying skiing for the first year. Also if you travel, your boots fit in your luggage. You can always rent skis from the hill you are vacationing to. Enjoy the slopes.
Boots can be so expensive but they really do contribute to helping with one of the most common complaints from newbie riders; discomfort! So happy you love your boots though! What kind did you end up going with?! @lexcilately

Love your approach! I like your less than 3 rentals calculation, makes perfect sense!
Thanks for watching and thanks for the awesome input! 👊
I would by shoes and clothes and rent board. No storage problems but so nice to use your own boots
Yes, I totally agree! Boots are lyfe!!! 🙌Storage is one of those aspects people don’t think about but can be a pain!
Thank you so much for watching!
4:42 😳 this always happens on the mountain. Or it freezes solid.
Great tips! I broke the bank and bought boots my first trip. Good thing I love my boots

The bringing your own snacks thing is genius! A slice of pizza is like $20 bucks it's insane.
I actually ask for my military discount
