Hiring Gear in Borovets

Hi! I'm off to Borovets in a couple of weeks and was wondering how easy/cheap it was to hire a snowboard out there - I haven't booked anything in advance. Also how good is the quality?

Cheers!

very easy and quite cheap.......
My board was a bit bashed and needed waxing but was ok. Typical hire board really. Planning to buy one over there this year as they ar cheap.

there are about 3 hire shps outside the Rila, or just grab an instuctor and ask and they'll point you in the right direction.

re: Hiring Gear in Borovets

worked out last year as being about half price. If you haggle you get stuff thrown in. i bought boots last year and we haggled a free boot bag. A Burton Custom was about £150.
