You asked. We answered. ON3P East Coast Demo Tour starts this week.

ON3P is finally bringing a demo fleet east for the first time ever. We've wanted to for years, but that is pretty far for the demo truck to travel from Portland. Well, with the lack of snow out west this year, we scrapped a planned West Coast demo trip on Thursday and put together an East Coast demo tour as quickly as possible.

Before you let us know how we are missing your mountain on the first part of this trip, please note that 1) we planned this trip in a few days a week from the dates we've scheduled, which isn't easy and 2) the demo fleet we are bringing out is staying out on the east with our new NE Rep - the illustrious BWalmer - so expect a lot more demo days on the East Coast in the future.

If you have a mountain you want us to check out, post it up and let your mountain know! It is very helpful when the resorts we are contacting about a demo day already know our name.

In the meantime, here is the schedule for the next two weeks. Do note 4-6 more East Coast demo days will follow later this year.

Friday 2/27 = Blue Mountain, PA

Saturday 2/28 = Big Boulder, PA

Sunday 3/1 = Holiday Valley, NY

Monday 3/2 = Holiday Valley, NY

Tuesday 3/3 = West Mountain, NY (3pm-8pm)

Saturday 3/7 = Smuggler's Notch, VT

Sunday 3/8 = Loon Mountain, NH

There are two other potential midweek demo days being discussed for next week, but they aren't confirmed at this point.

We are working on a number of demo days the rest of the season. Definitely Sundown, Sugarloaf, Mt Snow, and hoping obviously for a lot more. If you have suggestions, post them up. If we don't hit them this year, we will get there next season.

If you can, show up, try some skis, and let us know what you think. Thanks!

We tried to make it out there this Sunday (one of the reasons we actually picked Philly to fly into, besides cost) but the notice was too short to make it work. We threw this together really quickly.

We hope to make it out next year. Let Willi's know to bring us out there! One of our top shops right now. We would love to see our skis in there.
 
If you guys end up doing a spring demo tour and need lodging in the Magic/Killington area I can definitely take care of you. Great to see the crew heading out east!

Wish you could have made it out to Magic for the Ski The East Freeride Tour this weekend! It's going to be a killer weekend.
 
Nice work boys! Too bad our scheduling didn't work out better to have you guys at The Gathering, but we'll get it next year!

Hopefully we can manage to cross paths somewhere in this tour...

why no bristol?

This is just what we could fit in the first 2 weekends we are out there. That demo fleet it staying out on the East Coast, so Bristol is definitely on our list for the future. We talk to Bristol about doing a day, but we could only do a weekday evening and they said it would (obviously) be better to come back on a weekend, so that is what we will do. Thanks!

I've had a few Canada requests the past couple days. Won't happen this year most likely, but I'll try to pull something off for next season.
 
you guys should move the smuggs day back to sunday so its the same day as their freeride comp. The saturday it's scheduled as is also the same day as the sugarbush STEFT stop so you won't have a lot of the local smuggs rippers around.

Super Stoked and hope you guys get a nice spring weekend, I have always wanted to try out your skis!
 
No one ever comes to Whiteface! I'm sure everyone there park or not would love to shred the face on some sweet ass rocker, not to mention it's Jake Doan's home mountain. Really surprised it's not a stop...
 
Curious as to what skis you guys have with you? Seeing as I live in NJ I don't see myself buying any sort of pow ski, but I'd love to try the FRs and Kartels.

I mean, if you guys have something super fat and overkill for east coast groomers I'd totally try that too. Pillow fights?

This is just the first two weeks of many demo days to come. We will definitely make it to Whiteface, but couldn't swing a public demo day within the initial 2-weeks that our Portland guys will be out there. We will have at least one fleet out east constantly going forward, so we will make it to Whiteface and all the other killer mountains we are missing as soon as we can.

Most of the fleet is made up of the FR & Kartel 98. Then a few pairs of Kartel 106, Jeffrey 114, Wren 102, Billy Goat, and Presters. We will definitely be paying attention to the skis people are trying so we can better dial in the demo skis to send out in the future.

Sick. See you at blue.

I'm assuming there's 171s or whatever? /shortlyfe
 
You guys should definitely check out Bear Creek Mountain Resort in Macungie PA (very close to Allentown). It's awesome to see stops at Blue Mountain and Big Boulder on this list. Might as well mention this here as well: I bought my first pair of ON3Ps (Kartel 98) this season and they are by far the best pair of skis I have ever ridden. Keep doing what you do.

Maximum stoke!
 
Lots of small spots in central NY between Holiday and VT if your schedule allows.. Otherwise the NY Thruway sucks.

Schedule won't allow on the first leg of this trip, but post them up and we will do our best to stop at them in the future. Thanks!

Are you going to be coming any further south? Like WV or NC? Would love to try out your skis

Probably not this year, but I would love to make a trip down there in the future. A number of my cousins grew up in Boone actually, so I've been wanting to get down there for awhile.

If we made it down that way, what resorts would be worth checking out?

Thanks!

oh nice! I grew up 30 minutes from Boone and went to college at App State in Boone

App Ski Mtn has the best terrain parks and i'm sure you could get plenty of people to demo for those types of skis, Sugar Mountain is the biggest and has the most runs, but Beech Mountain has a bigger area at the base near their brewery and restaurant where you could set up

Winterplace and Snowshoe are the 2 best in West Virginia
 
I didnt even realize you had West on there. I'm going to try to make it up there then.
