Every skier and snowboarder has their own rhythm on the mountain. Whether you’re a carver chasing precision on the groomers, a powder seeker floating through fresh snowfall, or a thrill-seeker tackling steep chutes, your gear should amplify your style—not limit it. That’s where demo rentals at Palisades Tahoe come in, offering the freedom to try the latest skis and snowboards and find exactly what works for you.
Here’s how demo rentals let you ride your style, your way:
1. Discover Your Perfect Match
Why settle for guesswork when you can carve the mountain on gear that feels like it was made for you? Palisades Tahoe’s demo rentals let you explore a curated selection of the newest skis and snowboards, perfectly tuned for your skill level, riding style, and the day’s conditions.
Love variety? Swap out gear at any of the resort’s three demo locations to keep up with shifting terrain, weather, or your curiosity to try something new. Each run becomes an opportunity to refine your preferences and explore how different setups elevate your ride.
And when you find that one ski or snowboard that feels like magic underfoot, you can take it home with you. Through the Demo to Buy program, you can apply the cost of one day’s demo towards the purchase of brand-new equipment at Parallel or The Ledge. It’s the ultimate way to transform a day of testing into a lifelong investment in your perfect ride.
With this kind of flexibility and value, your time on the slopes is as personalized as your signature turn.
2. Invest in Your Season, Not Just a Day
Like committing to a gym membership for better health, investing in Palisades Tahoe’s Demo Pack is a way to invest in better ski days all season long. By purchasing your demo days upfront, you get a significant discount compared to daily demo rates, allowing you to ride premium equipment while saving big.
The Demo Pack offers flexibility to suit your schedule: use it on any day, or opt for the discounted Midweek pack (blackout dates apply). With this pre-commitment, you’ll have the freedom to demo gear whenever inspiration strikes—whether it’s a meticulously planned powder day or a spontaneous midweek getaway.
3. Experience Innovation on Every Turn
Winter sports technology is evolving fast, and demo rentals are your ticket to experiencing the cutting edge. From skis with enhanced stability and lightweight designs to snowboards with greater responsiveness and float, the latest equipment is engineered to elevate your performance.
With expert technicians ready to guide you, you’ll get a personalized setup that maximizes your confidence on the slopes. By trying out the newest gear, you’ll not only ride better—you’ll also know exactly what to buy when the time comes to invest in your own equipment.
4. Ride with Confidence on Pristine Gear
There’s nothing like stepping onto the mountain with brand-new, finely tuned equipment.
