Exclamation Chicagoland - Ski Equipment?

For those of you that ski, where is a reputable store to purchase (new) some skis and boots? If a more knowledgeable store is up in WI, please suggest it. All recommendations are greatly appreciated!

I can recommend VIKING on Northwest Highway in Barrington. They have been around for many many years. We have purchased there and the area Middle and High School ski clubs use them for all their rentals.
