Test drive events increase dramatically from this time of year. Test rides are held at one of the slopes every week.
Although it may be called a test drive event, it is actually a joint test drive event where many brands come together instead of one manufacturer's test drive event. There are a variety of fun things like snow FES that are held at the same time as tournaments and events.
At a test drive event held by a single manufacturer, you can focus on one brand and carefully compare the ride quality, and at a joint test drive event, you may be able to discover new brands. Think about what kind of board you would like to choose next season, find a test drive event that suits you, and participate.
