Experience Our Experience!
Buckman's Ski Shops began in 1971 with our first ski shop opening in Perkiomenville, PA. Known for great customer service and quality products, we quickly became one of the area's leading ski shops.
Buckman's has over 38 years of experience with more than 200 employees in our five retail stores across suburban Philadelphia, carrying the largest inventory of ski/snowboard merchandise and rental equipment in the state of PA. Our state-of-the-art workshop is the finest on the east coast, covering 3200 sq. ft with over $450,000 worth of tuning equipment.
We are proud to be known as one of the first ski shops in the nation to embrace the 'passing fad' of snowboarding. Today, Buckman's Boardroom is Pennsylvania's premiere retail outlet for snowboarding equipment.
It is our goal to make Buckmans.com the web's best ski and snowboard specific store with 1,000's of products listed online.
Experience our experience! Visit us at any of our five retail locations or shop online today and see why Buckman's Ski and Snowboard Shop is the premiere ski and snowboard shop!
Buckmans is family owned and operated by Jeff, Nancy and Brad Buckman.
