About Summit

A local shop built on a simple idea: renting gear should be the easiest part of your ski trip.

Breckenridge ski slopes

From one pair of skis to Breck's favorite rental shop

Twelve seasons of getting riders on the mountain faster, in gear that actually fits, without the stress.

2014

The beginning

Lisa Engström, a former ski instructor and lifelong Breckenridge local, got tired of watching visitors waste half their morning standing in crowded rental lines. She opened a small storefront on Main Street with 40 pairs of skis, a handful of boards, and a radical idea: let people book gear online the night before and walk in to a setup that's already sized, tuned, and waiting.

2016

Online booking goes live

Summit became one of the first rental shops in the area to offer full online pre-booking. Customers could reserve their exact gear package, provide sizing info, and skip the morning line entirely.

2018

Lodge delivery launches

Free gear delivery to lodges and hotels throughout Breckenridge. Customers could get fitted in their condo and hit the slopes by first chair without ever stepping foot in the shop.

2020

Fleet grows past 200 units

The fleet expanded to over 200 units of current-season gear, including premium demo packages from Nordica, Blizzard, and Volkl. A full team of certified boot fitters and ski techs joined the crew.

2024

50,000 rentals and counting

Summit hit the 50,000-rental milestone with a 4.8-star average rating across 1,200+ reviews. Now one of the most trusted rental operations in Summit County, the mission hasn't changed: get you on the mountain faster, in gear that actually fits, without the stress.
