General Info

This fall marks Skinny Skis' 35th Anniversary! The shop was opened in the fall of 1974 by Jeff Crabtree and Owen Anderson. Jeff's collegiate racing experience at the University of Colorado led to a job in his hometown of Jackson as the head coach of the Jackson Hole Ski Club Nordic Team. With few options available for Nordic gear in the area, Jeff opted to open a seasonal shop with Owen, a close family friend. Gear and clothing from Madshus, Fischer, Skilom, Odlo and Bonna were the mainstays. Skinny Skis continued as a seasonal ( October thru April ) Nordic and Cross Country Ski specialty shop. In the spring of 1977 Skinny Skis had the opportunity to rent their location on a year round basis. Phil Leeds, a friend of Jeff's from California, joined the company as a partner. Phil had worked and climbed with Jeff during their summers in Grand Teton National Park. Since selling Nordic and Cross Country gear in the summer would have proved to be a bit more of a challenge than anyone wanted to undertake, the highest quality gear and clothing for running, hiking, backpacking and climbing were added to the new store's line-up. Skinny Skis was among the first shops in the country to offer gear and clothing from Marmot, Gregory and Moonstone. In 1984 Owen left the company to follow his dream of sailing around the world. Jeff and Phil continued to operate and grow the business. Nordic skiing remains at the root of Skinny Skis' success. It is a passion of Jeff, Phil and the Skinny Skis' management to continue providing the finest gear, clothing and service. In addition, Skinny Skis remains an active component of the local racing scene -particularly junior racing. We are committed to the sport and our customers! We value your feedback. Please feel free to contact us personally with questions, comments or concerns. We look forward to a great season and hearing from you soon.
