About

Vail Sports at Mountain Plaza is the Vail Resorts rental shop in Building D at Mountain Plaza, the Vail Village base area where Gondola One loads. Of the three base-of-mountain Vail Sports stores, it is the one beside the gondola that most Vail Village skiers start their day on.

It suits guests staying in Vail Village who want to be fitted a short walk from the lift, and anyone who wants to swap gear or have boots adjusted without leaving the base. For gear near the ski school, the Golden Peak store is the other Vail Village base option.

Fitting and rentals

Staff fit skis, snowboards and boots in person. Rentals are reserved through Epic Mountain Rentals, so you can book ahead and collect here or choose delivery to your lodging. Epic Pass holders get an extra discount through Epic Mountain Rewards.

Boots and tuning

Boot fitting and adjustments are available for the length of your stay, and Vail Sports tunes skis and boards with overnight turnaround at most locations. Being at the gondola base makes this a convenient drop for a mid-week tune.

Buying and trading up

If you are shopping for your own skis, Try Before You Buy applies part of your rental spend to a full-price purchase. For families who own children's gear, the Junior Trade Program gives credit on last season's equipment toward the next size.

Seasons

Vail Resorts lists this as a base-of-mountain store and names only Vail 21 as open year-round, so plan on Mountain Plaza as a ski-season shop. Hours are not published online; the FAQ has the phone number.
