Black Ski Summit


What is a NBS Summit?
The National Brotherhood of Skiers Summit is the worlds largest annual ski convention, attracting more than a thousand of participants.  
The NBS Summit, also called the Black Ski Summit, is a week long ski event held in premiere ski resorts that includes skiing, racing, happy hours, parties, an outdoor picnic and more. On the even years (like 2020), the event is called the Annual Meeting/Challenge Cup (AMCC), aka “The Mini Summit.” 

In 2023, the NBS Black Ski Summit  was held in Vail. CO on February 4-11, 2023.

In 2024, the NBS Black Ski Summit will be held in Big Sky, MT in February.  See details below.
