November 13, 2013 (West Yellowstone, MO) – Skiers attending this year’s West Yellowstone Ski Festival will have a better opportunity to demo the industry’s newest skis and boots. Each brand has moved to an indoor demo that’s been incorporated into the Expo, allowing more time to work with each brand’s staff in order to test the appropriate gear.

Rick Halling of Fischer says, “Moving the demo indoors will eliminate the challenges of dealing with inclement weather while fitting boots or discussing the nuances of each product. This indoor demo will give us a better environment and allow us more time to ensure we get each skier on the right gear.”

Festival organizers are helping facilitate the demo by allowing additional hours to access the Expo room.
A general overview of the new demo program is outlined below:
· Demo equipment will be available for pick-up the evening before you plan to test it.
· Equipment testing will take place during the morning workout with returns before lunch.
· New this year, the Expo room will be open from 11:30am-1:00pm for gear return. Brands will then prepare gear in the afternoon for the next day’s use. Depending on the flow of equipment, some gear may be available for pick-up during this time for use in the afternoon.
· Each brand will have their own specific guidelines to demo equipment
