Ski Swaps can also be a great place to pick up inexpensive equipment. If you are new to the sport of skiing, make sure you check with your coach before the swap to see what kind of gear you should be shopping for. The most important thing to know is the kind of binding you will need. Pioneer Midwest is a local shop, and they usually have a ski swap in early November. Sometimes there are also ski swaps at the MN State Fairgrounds. We will post information as it becomes available. If you hear of a ski swap, please email the coaches or captains.
