Who's interested in a rail jam?

It will most likely be a boarder/skier jam, and will be sponsored by Wlrs Design.
We're just trying to see if enough people are interested right now, as well as figuring out logistics and locations etc.

So who would be down, and where do you think would be a good date/location?
Also what would you like to see in a rail jam?

We're not sure yet, Wlrs hasn't got back to me.
I'm hoping rink snow with some legit rails but no guarantees yet.

If you guys have any questions about putting one on give me a holler. Maybe I'll even make a trip over to scope it.

Check this thread for one I put on last week.

CHOICE! Hahah. Clever Spence. Anyways, we're working on getting Grouse and Alterna on board. Poor Boyz is down already, so we're stoked on that. The date we're going for is November 8th, corresponding with the PBP premiere. We'll keep you updated on what goes down in the next couple weeks.

Yup, Sam (wlrsclothing) pretty much nailed it.
We're working to get Grouse and Alterna, as well as local shops.
PBP is also on board, and there will be some riders in attendance. Get stoked!

sick. So this is separate from the UBC ski and board rail jam then? If you guys need help setting up or moving snow I'd be stoked to help.

The jam is going to be hosted by UBC ski and board, so it's not separate from their jam. They've got an application filed for use of the knoll, so things are looking up. Red bull has offered up trucks for snow transport so this event is definitely going down. We've hit a few snags with getting rails for the event with Whistler so we're figuring out what we can do to get that sorted.

I'm with james, street style is fine for down shit, but for flat boxes it's really not that fun.

I'd do a ride on the width of the box from behind for the kids and wedges from the sides for people that can ollie. This way it feels like you're skating a flat ledge, not riding up a ramp onto the top of it.

Lets take a vote to name this jam:

1) Rack 'em and Smack 'em
2) Winner Winner Chicken Dinner
3) Triple Bang Rail Jam (Prebang, Midbang, Afterbang; get your bang on!)
4) Backlips $ Pretzel Sticks

Go!
