ABOUT US / RÍO SPORT
One family.A lifetime on the snow.
Our family story is connected to Bright, in Victoria, Australia. With Spanish and Italian roots, we are the second generation of a family dedicated to ski retail.
OUR ROOTS / AUSTRALIA
It all began with our parents.
In 1973, they opened their first store. The family business grew to three stores in the Victorian Alps region, specialising in bootfitting, equipment sales, clothing and rental.
Later, our family moved to Spain and continued its journey in the ski business.
SECOND GENERATION
We grew up among boots,skis and shop counters.
The stores were part of our childhood. At 18, we joined the family business full time.
Our father instilled in us the importance of training. We specialised in bootfitting and ski servicing: preparing, maintaining and repairing skis.
A CRAFT PASSED DOWN
Learn.Practise.Keep learning.
Choosing boots, assessing their fit or servicing skis means knowing the equipment and understanding the person who uses it.
Listening, assessing each case and explaining the options clearly. That is the approach we want to maintain at Río Sport.
TODAY / SIERRA NEVADA
The story continues at Río Sport.
Rental, ski and snowboard equipment, clothing, bootfitting and workshop services. Different specialities connected by one family history and a lifetime dedicated to the snow.
