Most consumer days are coordinated with a local shop, I would start there.What is the best way to figure out when demo days take place - is there a website that lists them?
I tried searching on the manufacturer's website/social media as well as on the mountain's web page but came up empty.

Most New England demo days seem to be fairly early in the season, another practice that always mystified me.

Why? Presumably people want to replace their gear before Christmas, no?

Sorry, posted too soon... I understand the economic behavior of having demo days early in the season. In New England though, mid December can be some pretty sparse snow conditions; from a consumer perspective, it would be frustrating to have limited testing terrain which made it pointless (to me at least...) to try certain types of skis. *shrug*

...and then, if you find one, talk to the actual area reps, 'coz no one will know better than they.
How do you find out who the local reps are?

Either at a demo day or at a shop. Frex, ask Brian D. to introduce you to Keith from Lange/Dynastar.
Did you happen to get out on some demos at Big Sky or were you too busy poaching powder on the other side of the mountain?Sorry, posted too soon...

The Big Sky demo’s were the greatest . Got to try about 6 different skis. Even tried one in 2 different lengths- 180 & 188. Both worked well.Did you happen to get out on some demos at Big Sky or were you too busy poaching powder on the other side of the mountain?
