We’ve been hanging around at the Truckee Sports Exchange for a long time. They’ve been supporting this site since the beginning, even before we became UnofficialAlpine.com. There’s always been a need for a shop that caters to the needs of locals, where you can get personalized help from people that also share the chairlift with you. The Truckee Sports Exchange announced today that Rob Cavallo, formerly the manager of the store, is now the new owner of the store.
Thanks to Brent & Tina Cutler, former owners, for all of those years of supporting the Alpine Meadows Freestyle team, kids from other ski teams, people with a passion for backcountry and those of us that just have a passion for skiing on a “dirtbag” budget. We appreciate how you have let Rob, Danny, Jaques and the rest of the crew make the store our first stop for ski gear, climbing gear and paddling gear.
We look forward to continue supporting Rob and the gang at the Truckee Sports Exchange. There will always be some equipment that needs to be sold, some skis that need a mount and tune, a last minute camping need or just a long session checking out all of the new selections on the ever increasing ski wall. Congrats Rob! We hope the snow cooperates to make this an amazing season for you.
The place is a gem.
