sounds like somebody got fired. i think thayer is a pretty cool guy, and he always is super nice to me when i go in. sure his stuff might be expensive, but keep in mind he's trying to run his own business by marketing to a small demographic of skiers in a very competitive area.

As a practical joke, i attached a bucket of water to the top of the door so that when he opened it, I beat him with a mannequin leg.'-Skydaddy

its sad how Freds has gone downhill. I no longer work there/ride for them/have them as a sponsor.

The entire freds team was gotten rid of. The owner decided to sell the team gear at half off, then when he was in a bad mood, ask them to pay for the second half after he already sold it to them at a set price.

Armadas are selling for 575 and 675 respectively, which is about the highest you will pay ANYWHERE

its an ok shop, im not trying to badmouth it. Just beware, you will pay the highest prices for anything in the place, and sometmes if u get a tune there, u will come in the next morning and it wont even be done

Soxripper was one of five team members. Recently, the owner decided to try to get the team to pay for the 2nd half of what he sold them.

Meaning if he sold u skis at a TEAM rate of 250, two weeks later he got in a bad mood and wanted the other half of the money for the skis, even though he already sold them at a certian rate

he did away with the freds team basically

and fired the only employee he had that he trusted and that actually put effort into working at the shop because said employee didn't tell his wife (the true owner of the shop) how to run the shop while the owner was taking a lil vaca to watch a nascar race in florida during the first real weekend (snow wise and busy wise) at killy.

now the employee is not being paid hours owed or being paid for copies of his movie that were sold through the shop at $18...a percentage of that he is owed. and the owner is claiming he never sold any copies he gave them away. that is not true. he would never give something of value away for free, not even to his own wife.

his wife is kickass by the way teddy. she is old but awesome. the weekend you're talking about seeing her is when haskell went away and she was pissy she had to stay in the shop all weekend

Haskell has always been cool towards me and it seemed like he had a tight connection with anthony, max, and corey. Last year he helped out when I didn't have enough $ for goggles so he gave me a discount. This year when I bought pants from him, I asked if he could give me a deal and he was rude about it and said,' this isn't a garage sale man' I mean granted that he is trying to make money but it seems like after his article in Freeze he either got cocky or money hungry.

that's infortunate, but it's a little funny. when you were sponsered, it was always fred's this and fred's that. then they take away your hookup, and it's fred's sucks this and fred's sucks that. if you're going to support something, support it all the time, not when it's convenient.
