Nope,I don't have an ax to grind I have skis to grind. As a mountain mechanic ,I've seen stuff on the hill that just isn't safe. Mis-sized boots,bindings mounted incorrectly,rental equipment not adjusted properly. Next time your at the repair shop on any mountain take a good look around,somewhere in that shop you will see the count board. This is the board used to keep track of how many screw ups come from each shop off of the mountain.

As for shops I posted one up earlier.

He's looking for a shop in the Catskills. Maybe he can make his way to PA.

Last Sunday at Hunter, I decided to do a warm up run the Belt Parkway thinking it was early so it would be uncrowded. So, I took a right off the AA lift, and right after taking a right I hit a minefield of rocks (apparently groomed into the surface). And the next run up I notice that they put a closed sign in that entrance of the trail! It was pure negligence on their part, but I don't think there is much to do other than send them a nasty email.

My skis have been damaged. There are many scratches, but one of them is somewhat deep. I don't think the ski took a core shot though (I still only see plastic).

So, I need recommendations for good ski repair shops either in the Catskills area or in NYC.

Thanks!

You could blame the wind for the rocks. Yes, I was at Hunter on Wednesday and the wind was so strong it was blowing small rocks and slate on some of the trails. If you told me this could happen I would not believe it. The groomer is unable to pick up the rocks it will groom them in to the surface of the snow.

The street cleaner came down the road the other morning and then I went for a bicycle ride. I proceeded to get a flat tire should I now blame the towns highway department for the flat tire for not cleaning the street to perfection; thing happen deal with it.
