Hey ski fam,

🎃 This Is the Halloween Treat You Actually Want

Forget candy. Forget cobwebs.
The real thrill this spooky season?

🛷 Ski Dazzle – the biggest ski swap and sale in SoCal – is happening Dec 5–7 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

If your garage is haunted by old skis, or your boots are more cracked than a vampire’s smile… this is your shot to cleanse the clutter, gear up, and get stoked.

👻 Picture This:

You walk into Ski Dazzle with last season’s setup.
You walk out with upgraded skis, a full wallet (from your gear sale!), and a goofy grin so wide it scares the wax off your base layer.

It’s like Black Friday, but for skiers…
And no one gets trampled. 🙃

💡 My Big Lesson

Ski Dazzle isn’t just about gear.
It’s a fresh start. A reset. A rite of winter passage.

It's when you let go of last season and make room for a better ride.
Whether you’re buying, selling, or just soaking it all in — you belong there.
