it was 94 feet i believe, that guy really got annoying, he kept saying skier slide, and called scissoring skis one footer.which was funny at first, but gets old after an hour.

Summer slush make a difficult foundation for a solid box. Try to put four boxes in a row on that pitch and its really a crapshoot. The rainbow sent many to the left and trying to adjust after the rainbow usually resulted in what happened to the snowboarder at :49.

All in all, it was a good time. Shelley was the one in the pink pants and black shirt. She probably hiked that thing the most. I believe she placed 3rd overall.

Okay, we have calls in. Was it over 100 or 92?  We are tracking down Isa. (Snowmass Park Manager and the one in the turquoise top that did the 50-50 to frontside drift near the end of the video) If you know her, what she says is what it is. Well get back to you on that!

The same dude kept saying that in a video for the snowmass "glacier" last year. Is he just ignorant or is he making fun of skiing?

True! We have the official word and yes, Boxzilla was NOT over 100 feet after all. Instead, it was a measly 92 feet as Ryanvhas stated. Thank you for righting the wrong!

I just found out that it took one day, four people and one cat to put the thing up the day before the event. How they got it as level as they did musta been hard.
