Send skis and snowboards to ski resorts cost effectively.

Feb. 4, 2011 - PRLog -- The winter holiday season is well under and many people are looking to go away on their first skiing holiday of the season or even a second one before the season ends and send skis, snowboards  and other wintersports equipment over.

Popular places in Europe include the Swiss, French, Italian and Austrian Alps. The Swiss ski resorts have built up around mountain villages and offer a traditional atmosphere. Spain is popular too when there is sufficient snow. Eastern europe is an increasing popular winter sports destination with countries like Poland and Ukraine offering well developed ski resorts. In the USA the Rockies are popular as ever. How to ship bulky winter sports equipment to the destination of choice is always at the back of the mind of would be winter sports fans.

Skiing and snowboarding have become increasing popular with people all over the world which has resulted in people investing in their own skiing and snowboarding equipment. This is because if you snowboard or ski regularly you get used to your own set of skis or snowboard. Also you may have invested in cutting edge equipment which you just cannot hire at ski resorts. Also if you are hiring ski/snowboarding equipment for more than a few days the costs of this quickly mount up.

If you are flying to your skiing/snowboarding destination there is always a charge for transporting your skiing/snowboarding equipment regardless of baggage allowance. These prices can quickly mount up with airlines charging as much as 140 euros return for winter sports equipment under 30 kg and under 2 meters in length within Europe.
