definitely the home feeling store. I want excuses to go hang out at the shop. video games/movies work well.

10.) Would you like to fully demo the equipment before you buy, so you know what you are getting?

ideally yes, i would like the oppurtunity to demo, but i dont think it is worth the time/money.

9.) Would you like a more traditional store (just the products) or a more home-feeling store (t.v.'s with movies, couches, food and drinks, and music)? Why or why not? Traditional, but maybe a TV that plays X-Games footage, and videos. No couches though, or people might just linger to watch.

10.) Would you like to fully demo the equipment before you buy, so you know what you are getting? Demos are good, but hard to do unless you’re right on the Mountain. Make it possible for easy return for cash/store credit, or product of equal/lesser value.

5.) Armada, Line, 4FRNT, Ninthward, Dynastar, Volkl, K2

6.) Helly Hansen, Orage, Siver Cartel, Fate

7.) Mounted at the shop, tuned myself

8.) Usually being helped right away pisses me off. Let the employees chill and read a magazine or something, and when I need them, I'll ask.

9.) Definitely the more chill store with a lounge sort of area, always with a ski movie on. It's great for your customers because our sport is as much a lifestyle off the hill as on, so it's cool to hang out and shoot the shit with other skiers. its great for you because if there are kids coming to the shop every day after school to read the new mags or watch the new films, then their moms will know where to buy the christmas presents.

10.) Demos are an absolute must.

Would you like a more traditional store (just the products), as i find a more home-feeling store (t.v.'s with movies, couches, food and drinks, and music) attracts a group of people who come to just hang-out, it makes me uncomfortable in the store to be shopping in what seems to be another person 'den'. I wont bye stuff.
