THE SKI SALE

Glasgow Ski and Board

Every October there is a ski sale at Glasgow Ski and Board/ Bellahouston Ski Club.

---

 

The sale is run over two days

Friday nights are for members only.

Saturday morning is open to members and non-members.

Members bring in equipment that is no longer of use, or their children have grown out of, these are then put up for sale.

This is a fantastic occasion for anyone looking to update kit or those who are new to the sport wanting to purchase ski equipment or clothing, all of which is in incredible condition.

There is always new ski equipment on sale such as helmets, clothing and ski goods, and all at really knocked down prices which is usually better than sale stock from the stores themselves. The reason this equipment is on sale, it's last year's and in the fashion world that means it is out of date. the company that supply now have new up to date stock to sell, so the ski club and their members benefit.

 I have bought from this sale every year that I have been a member of the club. It is a terrific way to kit out the kids, as buying skis and boots new can be really expensive and the children  grow out of them in no time.

All of the goods on sale are in terrific condition and there is normally a queue of members on the Friday night, as everyone likes a bargain. On sale are goods such as

• Skis + Boots + Poles
• Snowboards + Boots
• Helmets + Goggles
• Body protection + including legs and arm protection
• Gloves + hats +scarf's
• Children's clothing =  waterproof  trousers +jackets + thermals
• Ladies clothing =        waterproof trousers +jackets + under layers
• Gents clothing = waterproof trousers +jackets + fleeces + jumpers
• Ski, Board and boot bags

This has proven to be  a very successful way of recycling ski goods as well as being a very successful night for the club. The members look forward to this being held every year.
