Snowsport Rentals

When you’re ready to get out of town and hit the slopes, there’s only one choice for rental equipment in San Luis Obispo. Between the great selection of skis and snowboards and the knowledge of the team at The Mountain Air, you’ll find everything you need for the snow.

All snowsport rentals come with 1 free day for pick-up and 1 free day for drop-off.

For example, if you pick up on a Friday and drop off the following Monday, that is a 2 Day rental.

Rental cancellations are for store credit only.
