Yup, simple question... I want to know which events were the best in your area!
Not just which was the coolest/most money, but which events had a great vibe, and were overall fun as hell to attend!

the Colorado Freeride Series and Championships at Snowmass is fun. It's a big-mountain gig, but always cool to watch people go insanely big off of cliffs. A good time for sure.

where did you hear that? i'm not saying you're wrong, but i didn't see a single sign or anything by transworld or any company for that matter.
gaper day is sponsored by drunkin beligerent kids with funny outfits, snowlerblades, 130 cm snowboards, & 220 cm skis.
show me where gaper day is even sponsored and i'll tell you i'm sorry, but until then i'm still calling you a gaper.

i think it was in the magazine or on their website, but in all honesty i'm much too lazy to actually find it. so, i'll take the gaper label from you

it might be in the mag or something just talking about it, but how can you just sponsor a day of drunkin riding/skiing/snowllerblading? it's not an actual event the cops and everything get invovled to try and stop all of the shenanigans by arresting people. breckenridge resort actually hates gaper day & doesn't really want anything to do with it; however breckenridge the town loves this day and gets crunk.

i didnt say it was.. all i was saying with that is that companies do endorse events that are based on drunken shenanigans. but anyways, i couldnt find anything saying that transworld actually sponsors it, so, you win. would you like a certificate, or a trophy or something? or is calling me gaper reward enough?
