if you know what skis you want for sure and the size etc then its easy. tramdock will give you free shipping as prolly a lot of other places will also.

I've ordered Skis from untracked.com... Wouldn't hesitate to do it again either. Very fast shipping.

totally. I got my skis this year from them and it was perfect. Josh answered any questions I had about ordering and shipping. So legit. The only thing that went wrong was they got stuck in customs but not related to JIBIJ in anyway. They are totally legit. If they carry moment next year (rumor is they are) im purchasing from them again

I do, and its great. Im all for supporting the local shops, but for a 100$ difference, Ill buy online.

I just make sure to read up on a ski as much as possible before I buy it. Worst comes to worst, you can always send it back.

if you know what you want buying online is fine, but you don't get the personal experience you do when you go to a local shop, for example when I bought my skis this year the shop mounted my bindings for free and waxed them for free because I know the people there
