Demo Days

[bvibert]

In the past few years I've compiled a list of all the demo days I could find information for. Last year I didn't get as many days listed, partially because I didn't get as much feedback. This makes me wonder how much use people got out of the thread, and if they didn't get use out of it should I do it again??

Let me know what you think, please.

I posted this in the other thread...

There are three threads I set to email notify when a new post is added

The "skiing on the cheap" thread
The "ski sale/swap" thread
and the "Demo Days" thread.

I wasn't able to make any of the official AZ days last season, but did stumble upon a Nordica demo at Blue.

I like the demo day thread. I haven't provided much feedback in the last few years because there never seems to either be a demo day in the nearby area at a place worth buying a lift ticket for or a demo day that I can actually make. But I always checked the thread as my #1 (and pretty much only) resource for demo days. Maybe I should get off my own lazy ass and check around personally :lol: But if you would be so kind, I would appreciate the effort!!!

Alright, I guess I have some work to do! Thanks guys.

I have checked that thread a lot in previous years. It's a great resource, Brian!

Now, to find someplace who's having a demo day on opening weekend. :-D

You asked for it, you got it.

I'll be adding more when I find them, in the mean time post any that you know of to that thread and I'll add them.

Demo Days are useful to me to try brands my shop doesn't carry. I can usually try pretty much anything I want at my principal shop without charge. I wouldn't have bought a pair of AC50's on eBay this summer if Volkl hadn't been out in the employee lot at the Killington Base Lodge next to the Superstar lift.

It would be very helpful for folks to cough up info on which of the demo days usually/in the past offered at least some fat skis to demo. Most I've been to don't, but I hang out on the shady side of the street I suppose
