Well.....the weather is getting colder, ski movies are coming out, and everybody is just getting pumped for those first runs of the year.  Well its time for the Original Rail Jam as well.

Thats right, the Georgian College Jibfest 2007 is going down on OCTOBER 27th 2007.
The place is the Georgian College parking lot in barrie. The cost is 35$. Its going down from 11 am to 4pm. After party at 9 pm sponsored by RON JON.

It is an Open even, so any skier or boarder can enter, but you guys need to register quick since  spots are filling up fast. To register send your info ( picture, portfolio, vids, sponsors, stats, etc) to  jibfest2007@hotmail.com, or visit the Jibfest facebook group or myspace.com/jibfest2007 for anything else you need.  The theme this year is old school, so if you got a sick ass perm mullet, handle bar mustche, or longass straight skis.....then this is the party for you. 

If you have any questions about getting in, prizes, set up, voulenteers, event sponsorship hit me up and i will try to answer you guys, or send you  to someone who can. 

Im looking forward to see some NS people there. Later days all.

Ok guys, final update for y'all. Jibfest is closed for registration. No more wild card spots since we are full up to the brim, and we aren't taking any riders day of. Congrats on everybody who got in, and sorry for everybody who didn't. There is always next year. The event itself will be an awesome time, and there will be tons of swag, awsome riding, and good times to be had.


After party will be at the last class, and it will be a concert, a bunch of local bands. So come and  support the jibfest, or just drop by for a little look.

Later Days

holy shit!   i'll be there for that too.     but wait - my skis are in rossland...   oh wait - i don't even have rail skis right now.   i wonder if i can find some skis and boots kicking around my mom's house or something.      i'll probably show up anyways, get drunk and cheer people on, or get my hate going.   either way - i'll fuckin' be there for sure.    am i going to know anyone there?   who is still hanging out in ontario these days anyways?

revised list:

winners: everyone who actually got to hit the setup during the finals

Losers: every (like me) who got two tries to make it to the finals and fell. 30 bucks for like 5 runs = gay

Well thanks for everybody who came out.  I had a great time ( i was the guy in the orange pants at the bottom of the rails trying to maintain the landing). Tell us what you liked, and what you didn't like. Like i thought it was pretty sick, but.....it was a sort of a weird set up for skiers.

- that the qualifying wasnt a jam

- that bitchy ass girl that would stop you after 2 runs(sorry if shes your gf or something)

yeah, i know. Shes not my gf, she is a second year. Are you talking about the girl in the green or  one of the girls in the Blue/pink.  I thought the set up could have been way better, the rail turned around was pretty shitty in my mind. 

Thanks for the feed back guys, hopefully it will be better for next year.

Actually, Jamison killed it. Had the comp not been based on the final 2 runs, but all runs taken that day, Jamison probably would have won, or at least come top 3.
