Ski Swaps: ’21/’22

By Wendy Clinch •  Updated: 09/21/21 •  4 min read

Last year was a tough one for ski swaps. Many were canceled because of Covid-19. (Take a look at last year’s list and you’ll see what I mean; it was pretty short.) I don’t know about you, but I really missed them. I’d always enjoyed prowling the racks, searching for a hidden gem at a bargain price.

This year the news is better. Many of the swaps are coming back, so we can once again look forward to going on a pre-season treasure hunt. Does that mean things are returning to normal? Well…..sort of. The Delta variant is surging, so who knows. Things could change at a moment’s notice. In the meantime, you might want to do two things:

• First, check to make sure that the swap you’re going to is indeed taking place. You never know; if things get bad, it could be cancelled.

• And second, find out if there are any entry requirements, such as proof of vaccination or masks. This is becoming more and more common at public events, so it pays to be prepared.

So here we go: the list of ski swaps for ’21/’22. If you know of any that are planned and not on the list, post ’em in the comments section and I’ll work them in.
