Groomed runs are not for the faint of heart anymore.  Most people when they picture skiing or snowboarding they picture fresh wonderful powder.  Some on the other hand are all about the groomers.  Groomers offer speed and the possibility of biting it and falling going very fast and on very hard snow.  So when the snow is not soft fluffy powder do not be afraid to tear it up on the front side of the mountain and get in touch with your groomed side.

Vail has received 42 inches of snow in the last 7 days. Not mention another 10 inches last night.  This makes the back bowls of Vail, a heaven on earth.  One of my favorite things about a powder day is the calm look of the collected snow. Most often we see snow that has been cut up like a roast beef sandwich. But when you get first tracks the snow looks more like a buttery biscuit that your grandmother baked. There is nothing better than rocking out to some music and churning dough for butter biscuits.

Don't be discouraged if you totally spaced making a reservation for your ski equipment. Even if you're planning to hit the slopes that day, don't be afraid to call your local Ski Butlers and make a reservation. With superior service, last minute deliveries are no problem! Don't be afraid to go for it and try out some of the best skis on the market like the Phantom 80s or the Zenith 3s for a great daily rate!

Have you been skiing for a long time and want to try something new that is actually a little more traditional, then you should try telemark skiing. It is a skiing technique invented by Norwegian by the name of Sondre Norheim. It is a great workout, and more and more skiers are switching just to try it out. However, if you want to stick to alpine skiing or snowboarding and you need to rent your equipment, then be sure to check out a great ski rental delivery shop near you.

Ladies, if you're looking for rental skis that will look great AND help your unique skiing style make sure your skis are women specific. Here at Ski Butlers Park City we make sure our women skiers are decked out with the best women specific equipment out there. We carry Women Specific skis by Rossignol, Roxy, and Volkl, all for different skier types and abilities. Women specific skis, like the Rossignol Voodoo74 are tested by women skiers and created with women's weight, height and center of balance in mind. This means that the skis are available in shorter lengths and are lighter weight than unisex skis. Since womens' center of balance is low, it puts more weight on the tail-end of the ski. Women Specific skis have the binding mounted a bit more forward than unisex skis to keep the weight more balanced over the ski. All in all this makes the ski easier to menuever. So ladies, when looking for a rental ski remember the bennefits of a women specific ski!

Every year at the end of January the Sundance Film Festival comes to Park City and fills the town. It is a wonderful event that is great for the town and the people of Park City.

Contact your local ski rental shop and we will set you up with some skis!    

The Holiday Season brought gratuitous amounts of snow to Utah.  With solid bases at every Park City resort, it's time to try a fatter pair of skis!
