Heard any dates for demo days yet? The last few years people have noted Massanutten, Whitetail, Wintergreen, and Snowshoe. Does Roundtop ever have a demo day?
The first Massanutten Demo Weekend with a tent by Freestyle of Charlottesville is Jan. 4-5, 2020, 9am-2pm. I think they may be around for a weekend in Feb too. Definitely for the now annual Snow Moon weekend in early March.
If anyone reading is close to Boone, NC, SugarFest is Dec. 13-15 and includes demo tents on Sat-Sun.
Here’s are the threads from the last couple seasons:
Looks like there will be demos at the Snowshow Winterfest Feb. 8-9.
Liberty Friday Jan 3, 2020 Never Summer Demo Day

Is the Jan demo day one with brand tents?
Massanutten is working with Never Summer Snowboards for Demo Days in addition to Freestyle of Charlottesville. The March Demo Weekend is part of the Massanutten Snow Moon Fest.
- January 4 & 5 - Freestyle Ski & Board Shop
- January 4 - Never Summer Snowboards
- February 18 - Never Summer Snowboards
- March 7 & 8 - Freestyle Ski & Board Shop
Massanutten Demo Weekend is on for Jan. 4-5. Freestyle will skis for men from Stöckli, Kästle, K2, Nordica, Blizzard, Volkl, & Head. For women they are bringing a selection from K2, Stöckli, Nordica & Blizzard.
Demos available from 9am-2pm at the bottom of Lift 4, base of Southern Comfort near the lodge, just uphill from the umbrella bar. Need to fill out the usual form and leave a driver’s license and credit card while demoing.
Never Summer Snowboards will be demoing a selection of their current line up as well.
So many announce at last minute I wish we could get a heads up to help get the word out.

There seem to be almost no demo days this year. I called Whitetail and they don’t have any on their schedule. I looked at Rountop and Liberty and other than some one-off snowboard companies showing up, I don’t see any big demo days listed. Maybe I’m missing something?
I can’t recall that ever happening before. Is this a weather related thing, i.e. winter refuses to show up, or have the ski companies all decided to dial back on their traveling roadshows this year?

In the case of Whitetail, Liberty, and Roundtop … perhaps due to change in ownership from Peak to Vail Resorts?
Snowshoe and Sugar had/have demo days per usual.
