What to expect when you rent Ski Gear in Gulmarg.
Gulmarg and the ski rental facilities in Gulmarg are still far from the western standards.
Yes, there is some very good gear in Gulmarg to be rented; one rental store is accociated with K2. So, it is possible to rent K2 skis: Pontoon, Hellbent, Sethback, etc.
Another rental shop bought lots of skis from tourists and also got a big supply from a Whistler rental shop.
Starting in 2013-2014, a tour company with whom we work with offers gear rental. They have excellent gear like Black Diamonds, Jones Snowboards, etc. As they had to pay lots of import taxes, it costs a fair amount to rent that type of new gear in Gulmarg.
What I mean when saying that the standard is different is that skis might not be tuned up to perfection, with a few core shots. There will not be 15 staff members to help you get your gear adjusted for you in the morning so you will have to wait and most likely wait some more.
Ski Rental Prices:
It all depends on what you need and what you are willing to pay. Renting new rocker fat powder skis costs more than old carving skis.

Ski & Snowboard Rental
We offer a wide selection of ski and snowboard equipment rental. As this is Gulmarg, India, you cannot expect the same equipment rental standards as in a western ski resort. Most of the gear available to rent is older and has been rented for many seasons.
Mandatory Avalanche Safety Equipment Rental
Gulmarg is an unusual ski resort (95% of the terrain is off-piste). You will ski in avalanche terrain where avalanches are an eventuality. It is mandatory to ski with the avalanche safety gear (avalanche transceiver, probe and shovel). You cannot load the gondola without it.
