What is Tell A Friend Tour? Tell A Friend Tour (TAFT) is an East Coast freeskiing tour that brings together fans, shops, resorts, and skiers. Our goal is to create a memorable experience with every participant and inspire them to keep skiing.
To make our goal happen we will be visiting eight shops and eight resorts during the weekends this January. Here is a list of shops and resorts that Ian Compton, Andy Parry, and friends will be visiting:
Jan 4th - Killington, VT / Basin Ski Shop, VT
Jan 5th - Okemo, VT / Totem Pole, VT
Jan 11th - Butternut Ski Area, MA / Butternut Ski Shop, MA
Jan 12th - TBD / TBD
Jan 18th - Nashoba Valley, MA / East Coast Alpine, MA
Jan 19th - Ski Sundown, CT / Colorado Ski Shop, MA
Jan 25th - Toggenburg, NY / Ski Company, NY
Jan 26th - Holiday Valley, NY / City Garage, NY
What happens at the shops?
- Free raffle of sponsor product
- Free pizza party hosted by the local shop
- Filming for TAFT edits
- Post pictures on social media sites
What happens at the resort?
- Filming for TAFT edits
- Impromptu feature jams
- Free sponsor product
- Post pictures on social media sites
- Ski with fans
What will I use the donation money for?
- Gas
- Paying people who come with me. This is a big deal! Why is it a big deal? I want TAFT to be another avenue that will help skiers make a living and create the content you love to watch. It's extremely hard for a skier to make any money, and I want to help create another channel for amateur skiers to put food on the table. We all love to ski but we all need to eat.
- Food while traveling ($1 menu, pizza, PB and J)
- Shipping costs for the support "swag"
- Whatever is left will fund Tell A Friend Tour next year.

About me
My name is Andy Parry and I grew up skiing in Western New York. After high school I went to college in Killington, VT for ski resort management and finished with a bachelors degree. In 2007 I spent a winter in Burlington, VT filming with Meathead Films. That winter changed my outlook on life, and in 2008 Will Wesson, Shane Mcfalls and I started Line Traveling Circus. Over the last six years Traveling Circus has won three "Best Webepisode awards", has more than 3,500,000 views, and traveled all around the world doing what we love. I have made skiing my life and I want to share my passion with others, thus the creation of Tell A Friend Tour.
