This is the first FreshTip railjam open to skiers in like 3 or 4 years, so I am stoked to say that on Feb. 20th, 2010 Madison is going to go off.
This event will be held one block from the capital, which is the background for the event, it is the main entertainment for Saturdays activities and we will be bringing in 10 dump truck loads of snow. The setup will consist of 2 down rails that are 34' long.
Scion's Downtown Throwdown will consist of a beginner/ am contest in the morning for both skiers and snowboarders. registration will begin at 9 am and the contest at 10:30 am. There is a Women/ Girls division as well for all you skier chicks! There will be prize packs for the winners of this division.
The Open/Pro division is where the cash is at. There is only 150 riders allowed in the division due to timing issues. It will be open to the first 150 riders (snowboarders and skier), i am working on online registration. The total purse will pay out at least $3,000, however that will be split inbetween skiers and snowboarders. I.E. if there are 75 skiers and 75 snowboarder each divison would get 1500 to split up. That would come out to 750 first, 500 2nd, 250 3rd. If there are more skiers than boarders the skier purse will be higher.
Registration is @ 1:30 p.m.
Comp @ 3:30 p.m.
more details to come. keep posted. get hyped!
Stay up,
Dougy
