Meet Jake.
The most consistent thing in my life has been snowboarding, surfing and fishing.
I have a deep passion for the ocean and the mountains, and that passion has taken me to some really beautiful places. I started Salty Ski Service in order to pursue those passions at a deeper level. I grew up loving to build and fix things, work with my hands, and be in a shop. It fills me with great pride (and honestly, shock) to be able to take my childhood hobbies and turn them into one of the best, most fun jobs I have ever had.
Do you have a similar story? I’d love to hear it!
Why a mobile ski & board tune business?
My dream was always to have a job that I loved, while continuing to have as much fun as possible at the same time. I have always worked with my hands, and tuning skis and snowboards is an activity that I grew to love as a teenager. Salty Ski Service was born out of the desire to spend as much time as possible on the mountain while having a job that provides people with an amazing product and a quick turn around. That’s why I am so stoked about a same-day ski repair service, or a same-day snowboard tunes. Salt Lake City folks spend enough time in traffic, we can’t lose another minute waiting for our gear.
Even if you don’t have a board or skis that need tuned, we’d love to meet you! Head over to our events page to see where we’ll be next.
Jake started this business in 2022 as a way to supplement the summer fishing business, and to give back to the Salt Lake City community.
