Bud Heishman is the #1 best boot fitter in Reno/Tahoe hands down. Ok I know what all the hard core race skiers are thinking. This guy or that guy’s the best. Well let me tell you I’ve been to them all. Sure boot fitting is an art but Bud is ego less he would be the first one to praise all the other top mountain boot fitters. My story: I was so fed up with the pain in my 130 race technical boots that I was done for the year(2016) I could not afford new ones since I’d already blown 800+ a year ago. Bud took over 2 hours with me fine tuning my(40 days in 2 years because of pain) boots into encapsulating slippers. I had the best day I’ve had in 10 years. My buddies couldn’t believe the skier I was since for 10 seasons all I could say was my feet hurt, my feet hurt, my feet hurt, I need beer because my feet hurt see you in the bar. Any other boot fitter would of sold me brand new boots to make $$$. «Power strap tip» works too. Thank you Bud

Bud is a genius. Boots(purchased elsewhere – never again) now rotate in sync. Huge improvement. And, if you haven’t heard his tip about how and where to adjust your power strap, that alone is worth a visit to Snowwind.

«Living in So. Reno, Snowind is an extra 5 or 10 min drive for me versus other shops but has always been worth going out of my way. Bud, the owner, and his staff have a thorough understanding of skiing and the products they offer, which are all«top-shelf“and at reasonable prices. I’ve skied professionally for 35 years and continue to do so full-time. My feet have never been easy to fit and the results i get from Snowind make it possible for me to continue doing what i love. Thanks Snowind!»

Well now store is open when I stop by when I’ve been to the gym or Scolaris. Not a lot to offer(no bags for merchandise purchased-I do t get it) but 50% off.

Such a crappy experience! The idea of supporting local business is so challenging when you can’t get the sales rep in this place to acknowledge your questions by paying you the respect of looking up to answer. It’s a shame, I’ll go to Scheels(reluctantly) since they at least seem to want your business. Won’t be surprised to see the out of business sign this summer.

Bud at Snowind is the best boot fitter in town! My boots had been hurting me, and with a quick boot fit, he determined what the problem was and solved it in 20 minutes for $ 30. Excellent customer service and selection. This is a great local business to support!
