if you can, demo during the week...when i did it, i got to the shop in the moring, talke to the techs, picked 6 boards for that day, they preset all the binding right then, so all i had to do was walk in and walk back out with a new set, no waiting...was fantastic...I was at Bromley so its a good vert and easy back to the shop..they had the whole mtn open, bumps, crud, trees so i really got to put each ski through its paces...amazing how each ski skis so differently.....this was back in 05 and I am still on my Atomic M10's

good point. i'm guessing this weekend at mt. snow won't be the best opportunity to demo. i guess i'll have to schedule a few more mid week trips.

I'm planning on checking out the demos at Snow on Friday while we're there. I'm in the market for some new skis now that I broke my Rossi's...
