All-season mix

Bikes and SUPs in summer, skis and skates in winter — keep revenue flowing.

Demand map

Parks, beaches, trails and ski resorts — place matters more than inventory.

350k example

10 pairs of skis, boots, skates, bikes plus racks and signage — payback in 6–10 months.

Realistic revenue

35k off-season, 100–158k in season for a small point.
