the actual gran prix is on the 3rd and the 4th the gran prix revolution tour in the next weekend. we got the gran prix last minute because one of the stops on the east coast didn't have enough snow

ive been hearing a lot of crazy rumors.. the one ive heard the most is there will be two rails, on will be an A frame rail with like a 10 foot gap in between, and then a flat rail thats 16 feet off the ground????

K i have alll the info for u guys....

Friday night, show up at 4 to register for the am contest, they dont want you registering so soon incase you dont have the skill for the setup. Its going down in the park on bondstreet right next to mcmenamins/old st francis. 25 entry.

Saturday night is the pro division same goes with the exception of 50$ entry, and the top 3 competitors based on fans choice from friday night will get free entry into the comp.

Set up is to be ridiculous, all rails start at 16ft off the ground, with total consequence on either side if you fall. 30 ft single barrel on left side, and 15ft down rail, to 3 ft gap to a 12 ft down rail.

The original idea was for an invite only contest, however with winterfest tradition, they decided to make it an open comp. however they DO NOT want you to register prior to seeing the rails and noing or not if you can do them.

Sounds like it will be sick whether or not i do it, with the grandprix in town and the local oregon skiers who kill it.

rowleys killed it, scott was only one to go switch on. he got a switchup in, and almost got switch lip slide on it. he killed it.and garret killed it to, he got a switchup in, and almost got 270 on. it was sick. also chris jordan stomped a 270 out which was sick, and then dewi and another stomped it also. set up was kinda sketch, but scott and garret killed it for sure. jp got hosed with registration!

I'm new to town so I don't know anybody here, but I thought it was hilarious that the only person to grease the rail during the first hour or so was a skier... the 2nd person to hit the rail, a guy in green pants. After all the, "do you guys want to see some SNOWBOARDING?!?!?", nice to see skiers killing it.

I'll be there tonight too.

I'm not trying to drop names or call anyone out, but in fun speculation I would say one of the Rowleys could take them on, I'm thinking Garret. And seeing a slopestyle comp between all the Oregon locals would be really fun, someone should set that up.
