The Source Academy Sheffield

Thank you to the Source Academy for displaying a showcase window of our Ski and Snowboarding equipment!  Drove down Charter Row the other day and spotted it!  Lovely red white and black window, could just do with the skis and snowboards in too! So will be poppin em down shortly!
Couldn't help but notice what a lovely Charity shop you have!  Flowers on the counter, fragrant smell in the shop, and nice staff too! Not to mention the little fur jacket which was spotted by one of my staff!
We will be bringing our donations in next week, what a good job you are doing! One of the charity's we try and support is the Cavendish Centre, where a lot of good work is done to help cancer patients through their chemo therapy and meet other people similar who have positive stories to tell.  It would be nice if you could support them one time?  

If any one doesn't know about the Source Charity shop it is on the corner of Pinstone street opposite Couplands bread shop! Just down the hill from Cole brothers. Plenty of parking too!  This is not the charity shop picutre!! It is inside part of our Store!! :)))

Offers and Salomon Goggles!

Offers and savings.

Right now at Dicks Boardstore we have loads of stock and loads of top notch offers for all of you looking for a way to keep warm. We currently have a wide selection of fleeces and jumpers all with 20% of the rrp, excellent for wearing under a coat to keep extra warm and stylish enough to wear as an out layer when the temperatures start to rise again.

Also feeling the blade of our price slashing sword are the après boots, like the fleeces and jumpers these also have 20% off the rrp, this even includes the boots with the awesome OC system in the soles, if you haven’t seen or heard about these they are well worth checking out, there is no better way to stay firmly planted on the ground in icy weather.

As normal we still have our famous clearance corner, prices up to half of the original rrp, yes that’s a massive 50% of some items. With the discounts we are offering make these some of the best value clothes you will find. 
Also in store we have an amazing deal on hardware from £30 off all snowboards, 10% off all ski and snowboard boots and 10% off snowboard bindings all you could ever need before that spring trip to the slopes.     

Salomon Goggles.

This year is the first year we have ever stocked Salomon goggles and the best way I can sum them up is simply ‘wow’. The Salomon X-tend goggles are beautifully designed, incredible comfy and brilliantly functional. Almost everyone has been instantly drawn to the looks of these goggles, and I can’t blame them, they really are very good looking goggles, everything from the spherical lenses to the sleek and simple frame ooze beauty and style. The range of frame and lens colours also means there’s pretty much any combination anyone could ask for.

Back onto the lenses themselves though, unlike most goggles which have the standard double lens, Salomon decided this wasn’t quite enough, so rather than two, their goggles are fitted with 3 lenses. ‘Why the extra lens?’ you may be asking, well I’ll tell you, the third extra lens is a very thin clear lens designed to protect the iridium coating which would normally be on the external lens, this means that any scratches you may pick up wont damage the iridium, clever isn’t it?

The spherical shape of the lenses coupled with the low profile design of the frame also gives excellent peripheral vision, Salomon claim an extra 20% on the vision angle compared to goggles of a similar external frame size, I can’t really judge if it’s exactly 20%, but I will say the field of view really was very good.

As I said earlier the goggles are comfy, they fit like a dream, apparently this is down to the material used between the frame and the face foam, it’s super soft and adapts to fit pretty much any shape of face. It seems to work as well, so far I haven’t met anyone who hasn’t found them to be really comfy.

They fit perfectly with almost all helmets and if combined with a similar style Salomon helmet something magical happens, the diagonal ‘lom’ of Salomon on the goggle strap matches up to cover the ‘lom’ of the Salomon on the helmet.  If lined up perfectly it almost looks like the strap isn’t there, not something that’s hugely important but it’s a nice little touch that shows Salomon really had their thinking caps on when they designed these goggles.

Although we currently don’t have any of this years Salomon goggles in store at the moment as we have sold out they are available to order, so if you’re after a pair let us know and we will try and get hold of some for you. We will be stocking more of the goggles next year as well, as i said right at the beginning this was the first year for them, and they really have proved themselves to be top goggles, so they certainly will be back.

Is it Cold enough???

Well is it Cold enough!!!

This morning whilst scratching the ice off my car, as fast as I was doing this it was freezing up again!

Be careful everyone on the ice which seems to have accumulated this last few days! Instead of putting old socks over your shoes, why not treat yourselves to a pair of Olang OC boots?  They have certainly helped a lot of our customers over the last 3 years in the bad weather. Not only are they for apres skiing and walking in the snow and ice, they are for all us Sheffield and South Yorkshire folk who teeter about on the ice hoping not to have a fall!

Unless, of course you are like my Dad who has bought a pair of mens Baltico OC boots, shown them to all his friends, swears by them, is amazed at what a great product they are, and then keeps them in his car boot, for when it is icy or has snowed!  Last night he parked his car at the top of his steep icy road, then this morning realised his Baltico Olang boots were in his boot, so walked in his leather shoes up the icy road and nearly broke his neck trying to get to his car! The moral of this story is dont leave your winter boots in the boot of the car! Wear them!! Thats what they are for lol!!!

 Ginevra tex black fur boot sheepskin lined OC 

What a fabulous morning to walk to work!  Snow under foot, the sun was shinning, all the kids were out building huge snowmen, they all had their ski jackets on, little hats and rosy cheeks!
It funny how the snow always brings people together, everyone seems to be much more empathetic and friendly.  
Is it the snow, the sun shine or just the fresh air!!
Not many cars were on the roads first thing, which was a bonus I didn't get my legs blasted with mud and slush puppy type snow!
Past loads of other families all sledging down the fields and every little incline they could find to enjoy some family time with the kids, actually some people didn't have any kids with them, they were just sledging by themselves!! I would be one of those people if I wasnt working today!
For all those people who are fed up with cold and wet feet, and for all the kids who like to stay out in the snow all day and be warm and happy, we now have all our Olang apres foot wear and winter boots in the SALE.  Warm, furry, waterproof, sheepskin and wool lined boots for all the family!
Don't miss out this year and get caught in the icy conditions which we are left with after the snow melts.
The Olang OC boots are a must with their non slip OC device which pops out of the sole unit to aid you to walk on compact snow and icy conditons. 
Not sure whether you all know but for all those people who have purchased a pair of Olang OC boots, we do stock spare OC devices/clips/replacements if you happen to have lost one or you have had your boots for many years and the OC need replacing.
Here at Dicksboardstore we have stocked a vast range of Olang boots for all the family. Now all on SALE just in time for the snow and ice!  Don't be fooled this won't be the last of the snow for this season!!!
