Just wondering if anybody had any recommendations for the best ski rental/hire shop in Arc 2000? I'm going at the weekend and am staying at Hotel Altitude. I know there's a Skiset shop in the same building but, from the pics, it looks like it's pretty small - I'm wary of them potentially not having a decent selection of skis available (have had this before).

Anybody happen to know which shop has the best or biggest rental stock?

Plenty of time when I arrive on the Saturday avo to wander around and sort out but want to book in advance so as to get a discount...
Cheers.

Used the Skiset shop at Aguille Rouge, & probably wouldn't use this shop again as the kit was a little tried and the staff just wanted you out of the shop.
Have a look at the shops at 1950 as its 2 mins down in the cable car and if I remember the shops were not as busy and the kit looked ok when I was browsing

Thanks - will avoid the Aiguille Rouge shop then! Anybody else with any experience?

Tempted to go with Equilibres as I've heard good things - any opinions out there?

For anybody who might be interested, I went with Equilibres and was very happy! Considerably cheaper than Skiset and much better kit. Thibault and Seb in the shop were really friendly and helpful...
