Over 20 brands will bring over 400 total pairs of skis and snowboards to Schweitzer!
Here's how it works:You purchase a ticket and that is your access to the demo area. You shop around, talk to reps and pick out the ski or board that you would like to try. The certified reps fit the bindings to YOUR boot. Then you head out on the mountain for an hour to test it out on the terrain you are comfortable on. After a couple of runs, ski or ride back to the demo area to return your gear and do it all again! There will be a plethora of next year’s skis and boards to try and potentially purchase at the end of the day. How cool is that!
Online/Early Registration is CLOSED.
Day of registration will be based on availability starting at 8:00am, Saturday morning in the Caribou Room (upstairs in the Lakeview Lodge).

What do I need at check-in?
You will need an ID (driver’s license or Schweitzer Season Pass) that matches your registration. You will also need to bring your own boots and snowboarders also need to bring their bindings. Please note that we will be inspecting boots and measuring sole lengths to assure safety standards are met. If you are under 18, you will need a parent or guardian to sign a release for you. Using your season pass as an ID will save lots of time in line!
Can I register and then let other people use my demo card?
Sorry, but your demo card is not transferable.
How long can I keep the skis or board when I demo them?
We recommend trying them for a couple of runs so everyone has the chance to try lots of skis and boards.
Can I purchase a discounted lift ticket at the resort?
Sorry – the discounted tickets are only available as part of the pre-registration combo package - another reason to complete your registration early!
Can my friend, spouse, child etc. go into the demo area with me?
Yes, the demo area is open to the public throughout the day to engage with reps, but demos are limited to registered participants.
Can I demo boots and poles?
We will not have boots or poles for rent as part of MegaDemo. You are responsible to provide your own boots in good condition and you will need to bring your own poles.
Will you store my equipment and gear bag for me?
Sorry, but we do not have the space or security to store your gear. Please use the ski check near the Ski & Ride center for your skis. Lockers for personal items are available for rent in the Lakeview Lodge.
Will you have Snowboards, Telemark Skis or Nordic skis to demo?
We are very excited to have 7B Board Shop setting up demos with several snowboard manufacturers. At this point, we do not have any Telemark or Nordic Skis in the quiver.
Will I get a ticket in the mail?
You will get an email confirmation that has your ticket attached. Just print it out and bring it with you to check in in the Caribou Room Friday between 3:30pm - 5:00pm or Saturday between 7:30am - 10:00am.
What if I lose my email or printed ticket?
No worries. We will have a guest list at check in. However, it can take a little longer so bring your ticket!
My plans have changed, can I get a refund?
We are not set up for refunds, but you can change your registration to someone else's name and information. All changes must be made by February 24 at 7:00am since we will be making up the demo cards at that time.
