Slant Skis

The Tahoe and Truckee region is about nothing so much as it is about living the dream. And that describes the folk at Slant Skis. They've been handcrafting skis since 2007, first in a garage and later in a local factory known as the Tahoe Snow Lab. They create their skis, test them on the Tahoe slopes and then make them available to snow-sports enthusiasts who want the very best in indie-manufactured equipment. The gear is made with vertically laminated bamboo cores, making them not only durable and strong, but also environmentally sustainable. They've got a full range of skis for women and men, whether you're skiing powder, park or all-mountain terrain. Tahoe Snow Lab is open every day for overnight ski and snowboard tuning and repair.
