Overview
About Racers Edge Wanaka
Racers Edge isn't just a business; it's a cornerstone of the New Zealand ski scene, born from the passion of a few local skiers with big dreams.
Back in 1982, nestled in an even smaller Wanaka, Racers Edge sprang to life in an unexpected place—a fruit shop. What started as a makeshift ski rental operation, with fruit box shelves doubling as boot storage and a fruit fridge transformed into a boot drying oasis, quickly grew into something much more.
By 1989, Racers Edge had outgrown its fruity origins. Enter Shaker (Steve Schikker), steering the way to a new era with a purpose-built, stone-clad headquarters. This wasn't just a winter gig anymore. With a thriving summer retail shop, Racers Edge became a year-round haven for adventurers and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
Driven by a commitment to top-notch products and unparalleled service, Racers Edge isn't just keeping up; it's setting the standard in New Zealand's ski, bike, and outdoor lifestyle industries. Whether you're hitting the slopes or exploring the great outdoors, Racers Edge is here to ensure you have the ultimate experience every step of the way.
