Junior Trade Program
Junior Trade is a Colorado tradition and has been making equipment more affordable for young skiers and riders since 1983.Families seeking a one-stop-shop experience, as well as the industry's greatest value for ski access and gear can visit Ski Rex and sign up for the Junior Trade Program, which allows families to save 50 percent on kids' new or used skis and snowboards. Families can purchase used gear starting at $119.99, or new gear for $219.99 and then bring it back the following season and receive 50 percent off the original purchase price towards bigger sizes with gear trade in. Purchases include: skis or snowboard, boots, bindings, an ASTM (Alpine Binding Release Check and Adjustment) safety check, friction wax, and in-season size exchanges. The process can be repeated season after season as long as the child can be fitted in youth-sized equipment.
Epic SchoolKids
During Ski Rex, families can also sign up for the Epic SchoolKids Colorado Pack, a free program for Kindergarten through 5th grade students that provides four days of skiing or riding at each of the state's top-ranked resorts: Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Keystone, and Crested Butte, for a total of 20 free days. Epic SchoolKids enrollment is not available at Epic Mountain Gear's Frisco location.
