FAQs
Do you rent helmets at Butterbox?
We do. You can add helmets to your rental package or pick one up on a first-come, first-serve basis at the shop. We don’t take reservations for helmets by themselves. Although helmets aren’t required, we strongly recommend them for anyone hitting the slopes.
What should I wear snowboarding at Northstar?
Great question! Check out our What to Wear Skiing blog post, with a free ski trip packing list included!
What if I return my snowboard early?
We'll refund you for the remaining whole days that you won't use your equipment. Gear returned after 9 AM will be charged for that day.
Can I exchange my snowboard at Butterbox?
Yes, you can swap out your snowboard any time at any Vail Resorts/Epic Mountain Gear location.
One of the biggest benefits of renting gear is that you can swap out your equipment partway through the day if it isn’t working out or conditions change. This guarantees you’re on the right gear with the right fit at all times. Each of the ten resorts that offer rental delivery has at least one on-site rental shop where you can stop in–even after only a few runs–and swap your gear out for something else.
*Swaps are available within your rental category.
Can we pick up our snowboard the day before?
Yes, and we welcome it. Pick up your equipment any time after 3 PM and you won’t be charged for that day.
Can I bring my own boots?
Of course. On the equipment selection page (Step 3) un-check the box by boots when you pick your package. If you forget to pack your boots, they’re available for walk-in rentals on a first-come, first serve basis.
Does Butterbox have larger sizes of snowboard boots?
We do, up to size 15 for snowboards. They’re in demand, so reserve your package in advance to make sure they’re available when you need them.
Can you deliver my rental equipment to my hotel?
Yes. Condos and vacation homes, too. Choose delivery when ordering online at select resorts and we’ll bring the gear to you. We currently offer rental delivery at Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Crested Butte. Heavenly, Keystone, Northstar, Park City, Vail and Whistler Blackcomb.
Can I rent just boots without renting a snowboard?
You can rent boots by themselves on a first-come, first-serve basis. We don’t take online reservations. They range from USD $15 to $25 per day.
Can you store my equipment overnight?
Shoe Storage may be available at this location. Leave your shoes or boots at the shop while you’re on the slopes.
