basically it is a comp for kids 16 and under. I believe there is a cash prize but the winner from each stop gets to go to mammoth in the spring for the final jib academy and chills with all the salomon pros. I believe that sums it up.

To add to this, it's more of a coaching day then a comp, kind of a session with the Salomon pros. Are you doing it Jake? Sign ups are on Salomons website.

you get to the mountain.
you have a clinic type session with a Salomon team skiier.
they coach you all day and just hang out.
then they host a competition and the winner gets sent to Mammoth for the Championship.

all for kids 16 and under

I would really sudgest this to anyone... It seems like such a sick day, im already signed up.

You just get an e-mail saying
"Congratulations you have a spot at Jib Academy, stay tuned for more exciting details."

Mount St. Louis-Moonstone anyone?

I think this could just turn into the discussion thread for this dope event.
