Company History
Lee Walton and Nate Shield founded Extreme Sports Rentals in 1997. Lee and Nate were college roommates who shared an interest in extreme sports. Lee was an avid snowboarder, and Nate enjoyed skateboarding and mountain biking. They decided to combine their majors in business and accounting to create their own extreme sports gear and rental shop. Extreme Sports Rentals soon became a local leader in providing the citizens of Hartford, Connecticut with extreme sports gear. Extreme Sports Rentals struggled at first to find a customer base, but as word of mouth spread and the popularity of extreme sports grew, Lee and Nate saw their business blossom. Today, Extreme Sports Rentals has grown into a major business with franchises throughout the country and over 300 employees. Lee and Nate decided that the best way for their company to succeed was to be completely committed to their customers, suppliers, and employees.
Both men sought the best possible ways to spread the word about their shop, but they also decided to help raise the profiles of extreme sports themselves. They did this through print, radio, and Internet advertising plus a company Web site and e-commerce business. Lee and Nate also keep their employees excited and knowledgeable about sporting trends through professional organizations, tournaments, and company outings. Extreme Sports employees were even treated to an outing to the 2002 Winter Olympic Games when snowboarding made its debut as an Olympic sport. Extreme Sports Rentals is proud of its dedication to providing customers with quality sports products.
