H-town shoot out

i was at great divide a few weeks ago and their park was closed but it looked like they had some very large well manicured booty jumps. i didn't see many rails though but that was because the park was closed and we never skied through it. i might be there, i haven't really decided yet i am doing the whole cat skiing on lolo on friday so depending how the snow is we might stay through the weekend and do some trekking around. not only that but the only decent jump i've got to hit all season was in great divide's kiddy park. if you want more info on the comp, pm oldsteez that is simon, owner of bsbs

Me some Missoula folk are going to head down for the event should be a good time

yea should be a baller time.....park is good

hey your name is like mine

I guess its a Montana thing

Damn, I can't get back from WA. Bummer.

i was there last weekend, i dont know if the setup is going to change or not. but it is: about 15 foot road gap with very little lip, a flat box that was a bit taller than the jump put you up onto it, a 20 foot?? table that if you could carry enough speed right after the box was super smooth, a 40 foot? down bar where the jump on was as high as the rail, then the 45 foot kicker, it was really smooth when i was there, to the wall.   does anyone know if this changed or will change???

i think it is going to stay the same, but i think there will be two more kickers, i could be wrong though.... there is 4000$ in cash and prizes.... so it should be a really fun time, good vibes and a lot of cool people, so i hope to see all of you guys up there

um when is it?
is it invite only?

here is the info
