Backstage at Eskiador Val Thorens:
50 years of passion at the summit
The station
It was against this backdrop that the first ski shops emerged, to meet skiers' needs as closely as possible. Simple, human structures, where advice was as important as equipment.
Eskiador is part of this continuity.
A family adventure first and foremost
From the outset, Eskiador has been more than just a rental store. It’s a story of transmission, passion and fieldwork.
Here, we don’t just talk about skis. We talk about sensations, snow conditions, levels and desires.
Every customer is different. Every piece of equipment is adjusted accordingly.
This know-how is based on a simple conviction: a good holiday starts with perfectly adapted equipment.
The core business: precision, advice and high standards
Behind the scenes at Eskiador, it’s all in the details:
- precise setting of bindings
- choosing footwear to suit the foot
- preparing equipment according to conditions
- listening to needs (beginner, experienced, freeride, family…)
This invisible work makes all the difference on the slopes.
And it’s what turns a simple rental into a real experience.
50 years of evolution… without losing the essentials
Since the resort opened in 1971 with just a few facilities, Val Thorens has become a global benchmark.
Equipment has evolved. So have practices. But at Eskiador, one thing has never changed: our sense of service.
Always taking the time. Always advise. Always adapt.
A committed team, close to its customers
What really makes the difference is the people.
A team that’s accessible, passionate and firmly rooted in the resort. Professionals who know the area, the snow, and above all… the skiers.
Here, we take the time to talk. Because behind every rental, there’s a holiday to remember.
