About Us
Background
Rick’s Pro Ski Shop has been operating as a ski shop in this location for over fifty years.
It was first owned by Carl Zotter in the early sixties, then by Rick Sim.
Rick was a well known ski mechanic in the Blue Mountains and ran the shop from 2001-2012.
Brody Nickels the current owner. Nickels started working for Rick when he was 13-years-old and took over four years later.
Rentals
Why rent from us? Because we have the best prices around AND our ski technician will custom fit you AND you get to sit in our cool LIFT CHAIR.
We had customers in the store renting skis and some of their friends were at another establishment waiting in a line that was reported to be more than an hour (or two) just to get the rentals. They texted their friends and said “come here to Rick’s Pro Ski Shop. Their are no lines”
Tune Ups
We will tune according you your level and style of skiing.
“We tune as if we were tuning our OWN skis”.
A customer just came in and said...
”I have to come back to you regularly, That tune made all the difference. It made me so much more confident”

We carry a full line of skis from several manufacturers including Nordica, Dynastar, Kastle, Leckie and Elan. We’ll fit you the right way. This is what we do for a living. We KNOW skis!
