jumps small. they should have put a down rail option so you could gap to rail too.

Seems like it would have been awesome to try and bust out the best tricks you could on a small jump in front of a bunch of people.

Was an excellent few days. Definitely cool to be a part of an event that helps put skiing on the map a little more. HUGE thanks to Caesars Palace and Coors Light for making it all possible

i was there. i was the local kid with the "ski or die!" hat yelling for cork 10's. haha. it killed me having to sit there and watch u guys get to hit that sick little setup over and OVER again.....i even had my skis in my car (so u dont think im a crackhead, they were in there bc i had a backyard rail sess earlier that day). anyways i hope they have it again next year and how about getting some local skiers in there!

That looks really fun, but that jump is soo small. It'd be sick if they had a legit city big air in Vegas though!

small jump. you'd think Vegas would build a bigger jump than that.

not really, people call them both. you know what someone's talking about if they say "zero spin" or "i did a switch zero"
