Village Ski & Snowboard

The Lease Option

An excellent choice for families that are uncertain of their children's future in skiing or riding. You're trying the sport out, seeing if the kids like it or not. Maybe they will hate the cold weather. Maybe you don't ski and this year you have provided for transportation to the mountain, but next winter is another story. You're taking the sport one year at a time. You give us a reduced amount for the new equipment and turn it in at the end of the year. Although the first level ski equipment is leased the most, we have a lease value for every piece of junior ski equipment. (Only one board package is available for lease.)

 

The Buy Option

The most affordable option for families who are committed to the sport. You buy new equipment and are automatically logged into our 50%/25% trade-in program at no extra cost. If you want to trade any of the equipment in after one year (most likely only the boots!), we give you 50% of what you paid towards larger equipment. The more likely scenario is trading the equipment in after two years for a 25% credit towards larger equipment. Amortize the original payment AND your trade-in credit over two years and see why buying is the most affordable way to go.

 

Sample Comparison For a first level junior ski package* Lease @ $149.95 Annual Cost = $149.95 Buy @ 219.95 (For annual cost, divide by two years = $110 per year, then subtract a $55.00 credit--$27.50 for each year) Annual Cost = $82.50 * Higher performance equipment will reflect a higher yearly expense
