Our Freeheel Festival is a great day to try tele for the first time or improve your skills with our highly discounted clinics! We also have a fun tele race with great prizes! A great warm-up to our Skins Race on Saturday, February 23. We'll have more skis than ever before this year, but we always run out quickly! Try out demo skis from K2, Icelantic, & Black Diamond, as well as boots from Garmont, Black Diamond, & Scarpa. Note that demos are NOT rentals- they are limited in supply and available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Please be prepared to surrender credit card & drivers license as security for demo skis.
