Sun & Ski

I always go here for my ski clothes. They tend to run a lot of great sales and have great prices. They have a lot of other things too. Fairly recently they started selling outdoor furniture. I actually like it a lot. They also have GoPro cameras and much more. I would definitely suggest everyone to check them out. No I’m not affiliated with them in anyway.

I had my monoski tuned up before a trip out west. All the work was completed on time and was quality workmanship. I’ll be visiting again in the future.

This place used to be called SKI STOP many years ago and I purchased 2 pairs of skis from them over the years. Same place, now part of a franchise. Decent prices, good service.
HOWEVER, they apparently have a RIDICULOUS and illogical policy regarding not mounting your bindings unless you bring in your ski boot. This dopey rule is enforced by a very pompous and self aggrandizing «certified mounting tech» named PHIL. He will completely refuse to listen to logic and reasoning and insist on «inspecting» your ski boot. I get the emphasis on safety but seriously, how does this guy know if I own more than 1 pair of ski boots or if I decide to change boots after the bindings are mounted? Does he stalk each customer and follow-​up? Nevertheless, he won’t budge on this policy and in the process, takes himself a tad too seriously. I’m assuming he was probably the hall monitor in grade school.

They’re getting 3-​stars simply bc they are one of a handful of ski/​snowboard shops on LI. Straight up, thank you for keeping this store open. That being said, it’s not the greatest store in the world. It’s passable at best. Do I need a fancy store to by snow goods? No. But besides the snowboard/​helmet section, this place feels like a garage. Almost all items (minus a clearance rack strewn with neon items) are at their full MSRP, so plan on spending A LOT. I saw a North Face item I got for $ 45 online here for $ 125, full MSRP. Also, good luck finding your size in most items. There are maybe 1 – 3 items of each style, so it’s really a crap shoot to hope they have your size. Although I did see some help around, no one looked twice in my direction until I asked where the fitting room was.
Bottom line, if you like to try things on or are in a rush (my case) to hit the mountain, you can get everything you need here… at a price. As much as I want to support the local boys, for my future needs, I’ll probably be shopping online for snow gear. My wallet just isn’t large enough for constant visits here.

I’ve been coming here ever since I can remember for all my ski and snowboarding needs. They always have a great selection of goods, but unfortunately everything is almost always at full retail pricing. You can usually get a better deal when you shop online, but for those occasions when you don’t have the time to place an order and wait for it to be delivered, Sun & Ski is a great place to hit up.

THis was by far the best experience I have ever had. Back in my hey day when I was 21 I was an avid snowboarder, nothing crazy but I had all my own gear. Over the past 15 years I have misplaced most of my stuff with the exception of my board. I went to Sun and Surf with my old 15 years old board and my guard up hoping that they wouldn’t try to sucker me into buying a new board.
I went straight to the front desk and explained to the lady (I can’t remember her name but she is the GM and the sweetest woman I have ever met) I wasted to get back on the slopes but didn’t necessarily want a brand new board before I got my feet wet and established if I still had it!!! She quickly took me to a guy named Chris who let me know that the technology has come a long way but that he would be more than happy to wax and sharpen my board and assured me that this would be better than any rental I would get up at the mountain, bc that was my alternate plan if this old antique would no longer work. I told them today I def needed boots and pants. The GM immediately took me to the boot section and asked me my size. I told her ten and her eyes lit up she went upstairs and brought back these boots that were on clearance that were 70 bucks!!! She laced them up and they were perfect. She fitted me for another pair but I was sold on the first pair. THey were great boots and the price was even better.
I then went to get pants and this is where Donny came in. He helped me pick out dozens of pairs of pants and he kept bringing more and more pants to me while I was in the fitting room. He was so knowledgable and so helpful. The pants were also on sale!!! My experience here was so perfect I could not be happier. I am going back on Thursday to pick up my board, a new pair of mittens and goggles and Friday I am off to PA to hit the slopes. I promos you I will never buy my snowboarding gear anywhere else. THis place is heaven to me because I am shy and rarely ask for help and most of the time just leave places before I get anything done. Sun and SKi has my business FOREVER!!!

went to pick up a new board, boots & bindings i purchased for my fiancé’s little brother that we were having set and adjusted over the weekend. before i went to pick it up my fiancé called to told them that i would be picking it up and i did not have the pink slip. she asked what would i need to bring to avoid any issues and was told all i would need is the number on the pink slip (which i wrote down and brought with me). once i arrived after a half hour drive there were 2 grunged out employees in the ski & snowboard adjustment station — one of who asked what i needed, i explained to him the situation and he replied (with a smartass comment) that i should just go home because without the slip i had no business being there. i explained my fiancé called earlier and was told all i needed was the number on the slip and even went into detail of all the information that we gave to them (his name, our phone #, the credit card number it was purchased from, etc…). again, he told me i was better off going home. at that point i started getting frustrated, he saw this and (being extremely belittling) pointed in my face and told me to «calm down»! i asked to speak with a manager on duty and he continued to tell to «calm down and go home» (im certain he was doing this to try and rile me up further). after i left that station and searched the floor for someone who had some authority or a sense of professionalism. once i found someone, i simply explained the situation the exact same way i explained it to the 1^st employee and he got right to it and retrieved the board, boots and bindings we had already purchased. bottom line, if you see this tall scruffy faced blue eyed hipster wearing a newsboy flatcap working in the adjustment area — avoid him. he is a arrogant jackoff. all in all it was a pretty crappy experience and from now on will pay a little more at Sno Haus for the level of professionalism and common courtesy alone as i have in the years past.

Well after years of not skiing, I have decided to get back into the sport. I know I have issues with uncomfortable ski boots so I made sure I went early on a day when there was no snow in the forecast. I was assisted by a new guy Alex, a little green but patient and he was assisted by the house expert Mike. These guys were patient with me as I tried on 10 pairs of boots until I found the right ones. They then outfitted me with the proper skis. They explained the technical aspects of the equipment as we went along and were as I said patient as there were no other shoppers in the store. This is the spot on Long Island to get your snow equipment!!! You will pay full price here but they have quality stuff and have what you need. See you on the mountain…

So unfortunate that Matt H. had a bad experience here.
I came here with the boy with the intention of getting him some new snowboarding boots for Christmas last year. The guy helping us was more than helpful so I was pretty impressed with the service. Not to mention, they have a wide range of selection for anything snow+sport related.
The parking lot outside of this place is awful though. Try your best to not hit someone when you back out. Or better yet, try to park first.

Ski Stop is amazing! My friend has a 15% club membership discount for being a student at Queens College (Yay!) so we ended up going here for our gear. The store looked closed from the outside, but upon entering the store, we were directed by a nice lady to the snowboarding department upstairs. There, Sarah helped us pick out everything we needed. We told her we were first time boarders and wanted really basic gear. She understood exactly what we wanted was very knowledgeable. We went with gore tex gloves, tried on like 10 helmets and ended up buying a sweet one which she bought herself previously, and got goggles in the same brand as the helmet so the fit would be perfect. She even told us about the clearance section when we tried on the snowboarding pants! My boyfriend couldn’t find anything in his size, but since I’m an extra small, I was able to score an extra cheap, extra awesome Burton pant which came out last season for an additional 40% off the sale price. She made us feel comfortable and confident about our purchases. It was a great experience shopping at Ski Stop. Props to Sarah for being so awesome!
