Snowboard Shops in the Beaverton, OR??

I'm going to visit my sister in Beaverton, OR. I want to get my board tuned
before I head off to Mt. Bachelor. Are there anything great places in or
around Beaverton to get my board tuned?

Thanks,

John

That's in the Raleigh Hills shopping center.

I've had really good luck with them over the years. My board is in top
form right now, thanks to them.

Hey John,

You might also consider getting your board tuned in Bend. We are
located on Galveston next to the West Side Bakery and our staff is
friendly and helpful. If you're lucky maybe we'll divulge some of the
secret spots to hit at Bachelor.

There's a few more stores in the portland metro area worth checking
out.

US Outdoor Store is smack in the middle of downtown, and it gets bonus
points for having the hottest sales staff. Castle Snowboards (aka The
Mountain Shop) is just NE of downtown and I have one reccomendation
that they do very good tuning work if let them know you're picky.
Another friend just had a blown edge repaired there, and the work
looked real good to me. I've had tuning and repair work done at Gorge
Performance (which is a bit south of downtown) and overall they did
ok. They didn't quite understand something I asked for on tuning
(de-tune tip and tail to keep the board from hooking), but they did do
a good job on a repair.

BTW, beaverton kinda blows... it always feels like one gigantic strip
mall to me. If you're looking for fun while you're here, be sure to
get out of there. The train makes it pretty easy to get into downtown
if you won't have access to a car.
