Why Shaggy's?

You may be wondering what makes us special and why you should put a pair of Shaggy's under your feet for this season.

When you make an investment in Shaggy's you are not just buying a product, you are gaining world class service based right here in your backyard. Ever have a question? We are right here in Michigan and we are here to stay. When you talk to us, you are talking to the passionate ones that are putting your skis together. 

Mission

Our goal is a simple one: make you happier on the snow than you’ve ever been. We are on the never ending quest to build the absolute best product possible. Our skis are built by the skilled hands of the Thompson family along with the help of some great friends. You won’t find the gimmicky “tech” stuff that some other brands put out purely for marketing, we simply use engineering and real world testing (on the snow, we are located in Northern Michigan) to refine and improve our skis.

Performance

First and foremost, we design and build our skis to deliver the best performance. For the 2015-2016 season we have revamped nearly all of our models and conducted Public Testing Events to get feedback from real skiers like you! At our first event we had over 70 skiers take out the new Brockway 95's and Ahmeek 105's and the response was amazing. Get on our skis and you will understand why nearly every customer is a repeat customer!

Local

Instead of designing a product and shipping it off to some far away manufacturer - we design, prototype, manufacture, and refine all of our products right here in Northern Michigan, USA!

Premium Materials

We use the best materials available to craft you the finest skis. Our skis are are built around a Select Cut Northern Michigan Hardwood Core. Hardwood (especially Ash) grown in Northern Michigan is the best in the world, it has extremely long and hearty grain that gives your skis longevity and unsurpassed rebound. Our skis are then wrapped with a blend of Triaxial Fiberglass and Unidirectional Carbon Fiber or with a combination of Biaxial and Unidirectional Carbon Fiber for an ultra-light touring solution!

Want to see our skis? Come on into our factory/showroom in Boyne City, MI or come out to an on snow demo in the winter. Make no mistake, these are not some cheaply imported skis with our name slapped on them and a discounted price. We are the brand, the designers, the engineers, and the manufacturer. Proudly handmade in the USA, with help from some high tech equipment.
