History
Pinnacle Ski and Sports began as Bedside Tuners in 1984. We started as a ski tuning service, picking up equipment from local lodges at night and returning it in the morning with professionally sharpened edges, a fresh wax, and a signature blueberry muffin waving from the tips neatly wrapped in a sandwich baggy. Few customers knew the skis were tuned in an unheated barn where a block of ice set in a bucket a few feet from the only source of heat, a battered wood stove, would sit unmelted for days on end. To get the business off the ground we worked day jobs, pouring every penny we earned into rent and equipment, and tuned skis at night. After a year in the less than heated barn, we made the leap, and opened a storefront. Working double shifts and twelve hour days, and with the help of our incredibly loyal staff, we eventually grew the business into a larger building with a better location in 2001.
