Italy, Dolomites

[Derek72]

Hi, I'm looking for rental place with hard board near Pinzolo or Madonna di Campiglio. Italy. I will try avoid oversize pack in airlines and extra fee and leave my board at home. I'm going there in January 2018.

Hi Derek,

I am usually there every year in January, but never seen a rental place for hard boards or boots in Pinzolo or Madonna di Campiglio, Folgarida and Marilleva are also out of bounds. 

I usually do the Turbo week ( second week of January) which has a discount on the skipass)

I would talk to Jacopo Dotti (www.carvers.it) or

Mario Amodio : SG SNOWBOARDS – Mobile Testcenter: Based in Ovindoli Monte Magnola and occasionally in other Italian ski resorts, ph +39 335 579 46 95

 You could probably get a board shipped directly to the hotel and than send it back.

Thanks for the info slapos, you right, there is no hard board for rent near this area. I spend few days on net searching for it. 

Life is too short for riding soft board on nice velvet.  I have no choice..... I will take my hardboard to Italy. Dziekuje!

let me know when you will be there.

there is a chance I might be there too - there isnt many carvers there. I meet usually just a handful of people on hardboots.

this year the turbo week is from 06.01 until 14.01
