Ski demo days

[Phelmut]

A couple of years ago somebody started a thread that listed Demo days for areas in the northeast, so i thought it would be good to start one here for this season. Here's a few to get started:

Killington December 9 & 10
There are usually several others but I don't see them listed anywhere

Stratton
December 15, 2018 • K2 & Salomon
December 22, 2018 • Rossignol
January 5, 2019 • Elan & Head
March 9, 2019 • 2019-2020 DEMO DAY

Okemo December 15

Maybe cut & paste to add others or put more details.

Mount snow has a free demo day on Saturday, December 15th.

Mount snow, bromley, killington and stratton also have demos every day for a fee as well.

Whitefish: January 12
Free, but you need to register your CC with them.
Includes the shops in the valley, not just the resort. Consequently there may be overlap between stores of skis they bring. You'd have to contact the store ahead of time to see if they were bringing the ski that interests you. Since it's a Saturday, it's very much first come, first served. You could easily never get a chance to try the ski you came for. So come with a long list of maybes.

Any more scheduled demo days for the Northeast or Mid Atlantic? Whitetail was supposed to have one tomorrow (22 Feb 19), but I just called to double check and they said that it was cancelled.

Funny we usually joke that demoing skis and drinking beer shouldn't go hand in hand. Needless to say we know the Meier ski rep by name. We go to this event every year. This event is a ton of fun and Meier skis is usually there plus other vendors including Killington's demo fleet so it's a fun demo opportunity. Bands, vendors, demos, lifts run til 5, just a very fun day!!
