Pelican Shops

Bought a pair of almost $ 200 goggles that were supposed to come with a facemask but they didn’t give me the mask. By the time I realized it was a month later but it was the first time I used them! Called to tell them and hopefully get the mask I’m owed and they said they couldn’t do anything for THEIR mistake. So don’t go here if you want to get everything your money is paying for.
Oh and the facemask isn’t cheap to buy on my own since its a special magnetic mask for the specific goggles.

Wonderful experience purchasing everything needed to go skiing. John Manolato, our sales person, was a gem. He was personable, friendly, patient and extremely knowledgable. He made us feel comfortable and confident with our large purchase. Over the last year, our family has purchased kayaks, paddle boards, bbq pit and now a full ski package. We have been happy with Pelican Sports every step of the way. Thank you and hats off again to John.

My sister and I rented snowboards from Pelican, and it was a great experience. I had only been snowboarding once so they were very friendly and helpful when they were fitting us for boots and boards. The prices are much lower than renting from the ski resort, and they don’t charge for the transportation times. In other words, we picked up our boards on Friday night and didn’t have to return them until Sunday at 3 PM.
In my case, the boards completely slipped my mind, and I forgot to return them. So I dropped them off when they opened Monday morning, and they didn’t even charge me an extra day! They just helped me carry the boards in, asked how everything was, gave me my receipt, and that was all.
In terms of quality, the equipment fit well and seemed to be in good condition (the straps and ties were secure, few scratches, if any). We’ll definitely be back to rent boards next season.

Everything was decent last year, when I was buying ski boots, helmets and other gadgets for myself, my daughter and my husband, spending obviously a substantial amount of money.

This year, however, the store owner Dave O’Connor «chose not to do business with me» over a pair of girls ski pants. I was upset when the store failed to get the snow pants I ordered from their other store.
Manager Scott, who arranged initial deal for me, said a week later, that he can’t control everything that is going on in the store, blaming everything on a girl-​sales rep. who helped me under his supervision.
But I’m glad; I didn’t get the pants from them, as
as well as other sites has them much cheaper, that pelican.

I am always a bit leery of those places that are ski/​snowboard as well as patio furniture places. I guess you have to sell something when there is no snow on the ground.
Anyway, I came here for Union snowboard bindings, as they can be hard to find sometimes. I guess it was lunch time when I went in as everyone was sitting around the cash register in the front eating pizza. Not very professional, but whatever. The place is kind of smelly, cluttered and a bit of a maze, but they do have a huge selection of ski and snowboard stuff. The guy who helped me out was pretty knowledgeable and did not hesitate to run downstairs to check stock and get me the right color /​size bindings. I got exactly what I needed and was outta there.
If you live in NJ, this place is on Rt. 18, not too far from exit 9 on the NJ Turnpike (I-​95) and is probably your best option for snowboard gear in the area.

Big warehouse of supplies for your ski and swimming pool needs. The staff is super nice. I was here a few years ago because I had a big flag football game with my family during winter time and I needed some type of face mask that was soft and flexible to put on my face.
Long and behold, I found one that was perfect. I looked like a ninja which was awesome and It kept my face warm when I played football and scored two touchdowns because of it. Thanks Pelican Swim & Ski shop.

Unfortunately, not all Pelican’s are equal. I LOVED the service at the Pelican on Rt 10, but unfortunately didn’t feel the same love at Rt 18.
I had gotten my board waxed and tuned and paid the extra $ 10 for the 24-​hour turn around time. I brought my board in at 5:15pm on wednesday and they told me to come back 5:30pm on Thursday. I came back but still had to wait an extra half hour for my board, which just didn’t sit well with me. 24 hours should mean 24 hours…
Still the staff seemed pretty cool so I’ll come back. But just let the records show that I was put off at my wait time (even though I easily spent the extra half hour perusing the sweet gear).

Pelican Ski shop at rt 18 is the place to go for your ski pool needs, good selections and friendly staff, pricing is good and reasonable
