whats the incentive for ski companies to give college students discounts?
If you ski for a ski club or part of a ski degree program I could see them giving a deal but for run of the mill students I don't see a incentive for companies. Unless you throw maybe an edit proving your worth.

You can get some lift ticket deals but I have never heard of any gear deals. Like the guy said above, if you are in the ski & snowboard club or such you might get a small deal but if your just some dude in college, good luck with that! Nice try though.

nothing I have heard of but it seems like most mountains have deals for college students and a lot have college weekends where schools are invited to party and lodging and tickets are super cheap
