About this Charlottesville, Virginia Ski Shop / Snowboard Shop
|
Founded in 1983, Freestyle is your source for adrenaline sports in Central Virginia, offering the latest in snowsports equipment, clothing and accessories. Our 10,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art main store is just off of Rt. 29 in Charlottesville. Our second shop is about 30 miles west of Charlottesville, in the heart of snow country at Wintergreen Mountain Resort. Our third and fourth locations are in Roanoke and Lynchburg, Va.
The experienced Freestyle staff is eager to put you in just the right product for your skills, body type and budget. Because our staff enjoys the sports we represent, they have the first-hand expertise and experience to guide both seasoned and novice enthusiasts. Each year we extensively test the following season's products, giving us a unique insight into outfitting you properly. During the winter we host several on-snow demo days at Wintergreen Resort where you can try the latest equipment at no charge. Not to mention we sponsor 5 of the best ski and snowboard contests at Wintergreen Resort every season.
If you can’t take advantage of our on snow demos, our Wintergreen shop has a huge demo fleet available so you can still try before you buy! All demo fees can be applied towards a future purchase.
Freestyle's bootfitting department is one of the most in depth in the East. We recognize that bootfitting is more than finding boots that don’t "hurt" your feet.
Good fitting boots are the foundation that determines your control, performance and enjoyment of the sport. Freestyle’s boot techs will take the time and have the knowledge needed to properly fit skiers and snowboarders. This can mean fabricating custom footbeds, boot shell modification, or customizing the boot liner, all to enhance performance, add comfort and reduce fatigue. It can mean alignment of the boot cuff or a total stance alignment. We have trained and experienced Masterfit University certified staff and the tools to ensure all the important elements of a good fit and proper stance alignment.
From less experienced or budget-minded skiers and snowboarders to seasoned veterans, we will have you feeling better than you ever felt on the snow.
When it comes to servicing your recreational toys, Freestyle's locations are fortunate to boast one of the best "workshops" in the East. Our state-of-the-art Wintersteiger equipment and top ski tuner/mechanics, allows us to provide our customers the quality service necessary for peak performance in demanding snowsports. Doing everything from standard tunes to custom race tunes, from simple base welds to major edge repair, our workshops can handle it all.
In addition to our vast ski and snowboard departments, we set the trends in shoes, skateboards, wakeboards, and inline skates, sports that complement snowsports. Come visit us and let us help you get the most from the sports you enjoy!
