Holy moly, if you need skis or snowboards this is the place to go!!! We came here last year and again this year, they had all our sizes on file. We even got the same boots as last time, perfect fit!!! We were looked after by a Hawaiian dude who was super helpful in giving us advice in ski and board choice. Won’t be going anywhere else but here in future. Ski hire NZ you are the best and top notch service everytime.

High quality gear, great value and super friendly staff! We've gone to a few places in Queenstown and this one is by far the best. We hired skis, boots, poles and helmets which were all top of the range. It made a huge difference on the slopes. Great location too! You can just stop by on your way from the airport. Wish I found this place sooner! Thanks Ski Hire NZ see you again soon :)
