Once again, the Start Haus won "Best Backshop, Bootfitting" from Skiing Business at the SIA Tradeshow in Denver last weekend - way to go Jim, Doug, JD, Nate, James, Jason, and the rest of the boot fitting crew!

Start Haus Owner and America's Best Bootfitter Instructor Jim Schaffner said the award reflects the entire bootfitting staff's ability to offer the same cutting edge boot fitting service to every customer.

"Every shop has a guy that's good, but we have a whole team," Schaffner said. "No matter who you work with in the boot fitting room, we have a consistent protocol that guarantees a great fit - from what questions we ask to how we assess the foot and lower leg."
