SLC repair shop recommendation

I’ve had an awesome couple of days on my Stormrider 95s at Alta and Snowbird the last couple of days. I unfortunately hit a lightly covered rock pretty hard late yesterday and have a smallish core shot as a result.

I’d usually fix this myself (base weld using a flat tipped soldering iron with metal grip and ptex ribbon), but I’m away from home so that’s not an option.

I’m going to use another set of skis today. I would prefer to be on the stormriders again for tomorrow, but don’t want to use them without a proper repair to avoid water getting into the core.

Any recommendations for shops at Alta or Snowbird or close to Sandy / Cottonwood Heights area that will do the repair the right way? I don’t want to put it in to be fixed only to have someone drip a ptex candle into the core shot and call it good.

No experience with repairs there but I stumbled upon a fascinating little shop called the Sport Loft in SLC. Family business that is practically hidden so I assume they must get a lot of repeat and word of mouth business.

Thanks all. Got a recommendation for Deep Powder House at Alta which is pretty convenient, so will drop them in there.
