Our Story

Crafted for the mountains

Alpine Base & Edge, was born out of ski racing and the belief that well-tuned skis make better skiers. Founded in 2005 by former U.S. Ski Team racer Peter Boyer, the shop grew into Boulder’s trusted ski shop, offering hand-finished precision that drew athletes from junior leagues to World Cup hopefuls. In 2023, Kris and Danielle Steigerwald — race parents and lifelong skiers — took the reins, expanding the business into a full-service hub with a ski rental service and expert ski repair service, all while preserving its racing DNA. Today, Alpine Base & Edge continues to merge tradition with innovation, giving skiers of every style the tools and tuning they need for their best days on snow.

A New Direction

Built to last

Every season, we push to grow — expanding our offerings to serve the full spectrum of skiers, from weekend warriors to dedicated racers and everything in between. Whether you're looking to demo your next quiver killer, dial in a race setup, or shred the park, we've got you covered.

We're a true full-service shop. Our rental and demo fleet spans recreational, race, and park & freeride, so you can ride the right gear for the right day. When it comes to fit, we go deep — offering custom boot fitting and boot service work to make sure your feet are dialed before you ever click in.

Beyond boots and boards, we carry a carefully chosen selection of skis, bindings, and all the gear you need to round out your kit — gloves, packs, and more.

This is more than a shop. It's your home mountain resource, built to last.

Join the movement

We're rooted in the Colorado race and freestyle scene — and we're here to grow it. From the gates at Eldora and Loveland to the jumps at Winter Park and the programs at EMSC, we show up for the athletes who are putting in the work.

We proudly support junior racers, park riders, and freeride athletes across the Front Range — because the next generation of Colorado skiing deserves real backing, not just a discount. If you're a rising athlete with a passion for progression and a presence on social, we want to hear from you. Our sponsorship program is built for the groms who are hungry, creative, and ready to represent.

Your run. Your edit. Your brand.
