My home resort, Mt Hood Meadows, had their spring demo day this past weekend. I was looking forward to get a sneak peek at some of next year's skis that I've been reading about on pugski and other forums. Well it turns out that this year all the ski makers booths were sending people out on Meadows demo center skis with the purpose of helping them unload remaining inventory in their ski shop/ demo center. Is this typical for a spring demo day? What is the experience of folks at other ski areas?
