Pre-booking of equipment is possible but must be booked two days in advance. For bookings please download the booking form and send it to summit@rhythmjapan.com
Although we try our best to match any requests for specific equipment, we cannot guarantee it. The equipment may be rented out by somebody else or it may have been damaged by a previous renter and therefore unable for selection.
Conditions can also change frequently so our staff will always be on hand to select the most suitable equipment for the customer’s needs.
As a premium package customer you can hold on to your existing equipment and take advantage of our special offer, which allows you to hire touring equipment for a discounted price, starting at ¥5000 for one day.
Rhythm Summit specialises in touring equipment so for non-touring equipment we would recommend renting from the main store as they have a much larger selection of skis from groomer skis all the way through to powder specific skis.
We have cartridges available from Arva, Mammut and BCA available for purchase or rent. We also have the Pieps jetforce backpacks available for rent or purchase. At this moment we are unable to offer any refills on empty canisters.
We have a slightly different disclaimer than the main shop. For pre-bookings of more than 5 days we do allow guides to pick up gear on your behalf. We require payment in advance as well as credit card details and signed disclaimers. The bindings will not be set so will need to be done by yourself or the guide.
We do always recommend coming into store to get safely set up and chat to the staff about the most suitable equipment for your needs so having a guide pick it up on your behalf should be the last resort.
Please note that availability isn't guaranteed so make sure you chat to our staff about what's currently available.
We are proud to offer a dedicated backcountry section at both Rhythm Summit and Rhythm Hakuba, offering a large selection of the latest backcountry equipment.
