Snowboards provide a quick and exciting means of speeding down a mountaintop, allowing riders to escape winter doldrums or overly talkative yetis. Leave boredom behind with this Groupon.

Choose from Three Options

  • $20 for a snowboard tune-up (a $40 value)
  • $12 for a one-day snowboard rental package (up to a $25 value)
  • $20 for a two-day snowboard rental package (up to a $40 value)

Olympus Board Shop's snow experts use their mastery to tune up boards and equip customers with gear by K2, Salomon, and Jones. Techs care for patron-owned equipment, smoothing rough surfaces with a base grind and edge bevel to prevent pointed edges from digging too deeply into snow or a neighbor's roof. Afterward, a hot wax seals the surface against damage from ice.

Alternatively, renters arrive the day before a mountain trip to outfit themselves from the store's comprehensive selection of merchandise, receiving a board, boots, and bindings in adult or child sizes. The staff customizes each specific piece of equipment to the experience level and goals of the rider, whether they want to test-drive the latest boards or practice their backflips.

Though this merchant sometimes offers a discounted price online, this Groupon is still the best deal available.

Olympus Board Shop

Jeremy Godo Kiss’ earliest love of the adrenaline rush surfaced in his passion for skateboarding. As he grew older, he began to feel the need for something that would give him higher jumps, bigger thrills, and taller windswept hair pomps. In 1988, he found that something—he discovered the extreme art of snowboarding. Determined to help others achieve the same sense of exhilaration he experienced zooming down the steep bluffs of June Mountain for the first time, Kiss opened Olympus Board Shop in 1998. Here, he and his staffers stock a wide range of high-quality boards of all types from brands such as Solomon, Imagine, and Liquid Shredder. Since opening, they’ve expanded their inventory to include other extreme sports, including surfing, stand up paddling, and kayaking. They also host interactive, pulse-pounding lessons in surfing, paddleboarding, and kayaking.

The Groupon Guide to: Empty 2-Liter Soda Bottles

Everyone loves drinking soda pop straight out of 2-liter bottles, but when the soda pop is all gone, you've got to recycle that empty plastic container, a process that can be awful and horrible. Make the end as fun as the beginning with these tips for hanging on to those empties and using them for fun:

  • Play sports with them. An empty 2-liter bottle is the perfect object to use as a whiffle-ball bat or a weird basketball that's incredibly frustrating to use.

  • Turn them into pieces of art. You can do this by filling them with just about anything because most art isn't very good.

  • Bring them to a sporting event and use the bottles as thunder sticks, which are those hollow, cylindrical plastic objects that fans bang together to signal to each other when they should all be quiet for a key play.

  • Throw them up in the air and see if they float!

  • Recycle them the easy, painless way: by just throwing them away in the garbage.

Is a 2-liter bottle filled with roast beef considered art?
