word thats sick. i couldnt handle being there any longer, so i left right after they were done, and didnt stick around to see who won. did the kid from mount snow come in third? the one who took the extra hit at the end with nick?

that jam sucked so much, they brought in way to many riders and could only let 2 skiers go at once, so all of the other 40 somewhat kids had to sit and wait while it took 5 mintutes to lift 2 skiers or boarders up the machine and onto the inrun, they wer hours behind scedual, and practace ended up being one or two hits on the rail, the box itself was nice, but just not worth the 5 hour wait to hit it

it was a good format, good, not great set up, but yeah, they needed 2 lifts or a bigger lift or stairs to move the contestants quicker. The snowboards killed it.

i wasnt able to be in it because i missed the registration but it looked like a lot of fun and i was glad to see all the skiers come out and throw down.The only problem was that it wasnt organized well so it started like 2 hours late

i thought the set up was like perfect. it was so smooth. maybe a little bit to fast. but you could just not pump down the ramp and would be fine. or pizza

there was no girl in the first heat. they picked the top kids from both heat. so the 270 out, wasnt one of the best tricks

The only thing that is beat is the fact that you little trash talkers are ignorant. Huge effort went down and I heard talk more lifts and a more jams so if you think liftsare stupid than you sould stay home and keep sucking your thumb,you dush bag

i thought it was sweet. box was perfect. on thinner side so you didn;t automatically make it to the end, but wide enough that it made the 8ft go to the back of your mind. the lift was deffinatly a good idea, it was a bummer that you could only lift 2 people at once, but not many more people could fit up there anyway. the haybails was smart too. kept the snow relativly in the same spot so it didn't just melt and go all over the street. i had a blast

a stair set that people can walk up with a bigger standing area on top for more people to stand on which would mean more hits in a shorter amount of time meaning a better jam but hey i didnt go so im not one to rip on it

Huge thanks to Seth and the crew at Ski market. Those guys worked their asses off to put on a sweet set up. It was a hell of a lot better than most of the rail jams I have seen in the east.

i think it was a good thing^ some kids coulda gotten seriously fucked up if they didnt have the skills but hit it anyway and missed the hay. i know wat u mean though, but ther coulda been some ugly falls.

it would have been horrible if anyone could have gone. you would get maybe one hit if you were lucky
