2005/2006 Demo Days List

[bvibert]

PLEASE NOTE:
All links in this thread that point to other threads/features on AZ will be broken due to the upgrade to vBulliten from phpBB. I probably won't fix any of them since most of the dates of gone by anyway. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Since its often hard to keep track of when and where ski/snowboard demo days are happening we thought it would be a good idea to create a list so that it would be easy to see all upcoming demo days in one spot. Please post any demo days that you hear of below and I'll add them this post.

These appear to be last seasons events, let us know when this year's are posted and we'll add them.

 

[ga2ski]

oops. sorry about the dates. i thought they were updated.

Yes there are lessons and demos at the telefests. The price of the festivals is usually the same at the day ticket, plus you get the demos, two lessons (if you want them), can compete in the competition if you want, enter the costume contest, and the beloved BEER ticket.

If you have a pass to a mountain that the festival is at, i believe the cost is $20 (well atleast that what it was last year at SR)

Re: Demo Days

Because I'm interested in demoing the Atomic Metron B5 and M:11, I e-mailed Atomic to inquire about demo days in New England.

The response I got was that demo days for Atomic have not been firmed up yet but that I should check back in early October.

As soon as I hear something, I'll post it.
