The premiere is $8 for Utah Freeskier Society members. The show is normally $10, but if you present your 2009/2010 UFS membership card at the door you will get $2 off. This is a great opportunity to buy some Level 1 t-shirts and movies with the money you save!
This is one of the best ski movies of the year, so bring your friends, parents, grandparents, cousins, and everyone else you know that skis. If you are in the Salt Lake area, you should not miss this event! Seriously, if you can only see one ski movie this year, make sure THIS is the premier you attend! Don’t forget your membership cards!
