Skiing with the whole family can become a costly endeavour, as younger children tend to outgrow their equipment quickly, requiring you to regularly buy new sizes of skis, boots and other products.
To reduce the financial burden, we recommended taking advantage of the great rental offers of INTERSPORT Rent. With this option, the equipment simply “grows” with your kids, and you don’t have to spend a fortune on new gear.
