Hey everyone. I'm going a little research and was hoping you could help me out! If you wouldn't mind taking the following survey, that would be dope.

This. Plus evo is my local shop so it's a win/win great if I don't feel like driving and even better when I sack up and pay for gas

Its finny you say that but do you like having your local there to acctually go and hold what your buying or the face to face customer service and knowledge? (If its a "sports store that holds some good stuff i could understand buying from evo) if you use it, support it. If its a decent store and go go enough you get to know the people who run it and you can get a much better service than a faceless online store an you might end up getting deals or the chance for putting in special orders which makes it much more worthwhile to stay local.

Normally what i do is go to my local shop and see the skis in person just to see how they look see how they fit and get a feel for what im going to buy. Then i usually buy them online just to save some cash from evo or backcountry. But you can't go wrong buying from your local shop supporting them never hurts.

buy local - pinching pennies isnt worth it given the customer service you receive in a shop

Little bit of shameless self promotion, but -

Check out Skiershop.com!  We have an awesome reward system, are a skier owned/operated company and always try our best to get customers what they want at a reasonable price.  Plus if you call and want to talk park skis, you'll almost definitely get me on the phone.
