Groswold skis were made in Denver, Colorado. Thor Groswold grew up in Norway on skis and is perhaps best known as the manufacturer of Groswold Skis in Denver, Colorado. Thor was encouraged by friends and associates to begin to manufacture skis. He formed the Thor Groswold Ski Company in 1932 and started making skis at 38th and Walnut in Denver. The company was later incorporated as The Groswold Ski Co., Inc., and in 1934 was relocated to 1205 Shoshone St. where it operated until 1952 when the plant was closed. The company was literally started from scratch and as the business grew Thor developed ski making techniques by trial and error and from the little knowledge he had brought from the old country. Groswold Skis were one of the first ski manufacturers to endorse ski racers like Dick Durance, Barney McClain, Otto Lang, Friedl Pfeifer to name a few, and had them design there own line of skis. The label on the top is from Flint & Kent Winter Sports Equipment. They would look great on the wall in your cabin, cottage or winter home.
