We (Richard Allen and Mary Roland) at Vintage Ski World, wish you a Happy Holiday Season and a Merry Christmas. Thank You for all of your support this year in visiting our site and shopping our web-store.
May you get a chance this ski season, to get out to the slopes and enjoy yourself!
This is our first Blog. We are excited about the possibilities of how we can communicate with you. Let us know ways that we can serve you better. Please share your Holiday ski stories from the past and present, especially the stories that have enlivened your passion for skiing or snowboarding.
We also welcome your questions or comments about the history of skiing.

who knows ski info on Thor groswold wood lam blue tips
As far as we know Thor Groswold never made painted skis. He only made Wood natural skis. But maybe a rental shop or someone in later years painted the tips to help identify their skis from everyone else’s skis. Check out the article we have on this photo of the Groswold ski factory in Denver.
