I'm going to Portland in February for hockey and I'm planning on getting a bunch of new equipment and I'm wondering what are some top ski shops there?
 
U.S. outdoor is the most legit one i have been to. don't go to next adventure, can't speak for everybody there but the ski techs i came in contact with were pretty rude, and acted like they kept doing me huge favors, favors that most ski shops would not hesitate to help you out with.
 
For bootfitting, my recommendation goes to Greg at Boots and More in Gresham. Its a small operation run out of his garage, but the man is a boot wizard.
 
THE MOUNTAIN SHOP right in the middle of Northeast Portland. Or Next Adventure downtown. Also REI is right in the pearl district. Hillcrest is wayy far from portland but its literally right on the way to Mt Hood.
 
Hillcrest for sure, but sometimes their prices are a bit high. I like US Outdoor to, they have some chill people there and its pretty big. I cant really speak for the Mountain Shop because ive never really been there, but ive heard it good.
 
while the mountain shop is definitely the most legit shop if you want park stuff i wouldn't go there. for anything mountaineering, climbing, or BC mountain shop for sure. haven't been to hillcrest but i havent been too impressed by us outdoor
 
Mountain shop has impeccable customer service. BUT not stuff most newschoolers are looking for.

I have proclaimed to never shop at US outdoor again. I think they are that bad. Too many bros that know very little.

It really depends on what you are looking to buy.
 
I'm not to worried about the ski tech or boot fitting because I'm just looking for outerwear and stuff but I'll try and make it to every store, thanks a lot.
 
any thing but US BROdoorstor

the mounted one of my bindings off.center and one at center. and i was young and naive and id not demand new skis.
 
Hillcrest is good but it is far away from Portland. I personally have only had good experiences at US outdoor, but I know some people that have not been satisfied.
