After weeks of tirelessly testing all of next year’s skis, boots and outerwear, we knew there was no better way to tip our hats off to the Vail Valley than throwing an absolute ripper at the Express Lift Bar. Denver’s Andy Immerman got the dance floor moving with his funky soundtrack while the Kona Big Wave crew doled out free beer to a thirsty crowd of skiers. Of course, it’s not a FREESKIER party without some gear giveaways. A few friendly competitions filled with blood, sweat and the occasional tear led to numerous pairs of free skis being awarded, along with a brand new iPhone 15 courtesy of T Mobile and some sweet helmets, goggles and sunnies from our friends at Oakley. Scroll down for a couple of our party highlights, best-dressed attendees and top-notch dance moves.
