Galvanic Campus Rail Jams

So the past two years at ASU, the Ford Campus Rail Jam put on by Galvanic hasn't happened (not since '11). It's been replaced with a wake jam, which is sick, but no one competes except for the few East Coast kids we get.

It was usually put on by Galvanic and sponsored by Ford (prior to Ford was Criket). I'm sure many of your are familiar with it.

Just out of curiosity, anyone know what happened to 'em? Their website seems to be out of date since 2011. Did they close their doors? Laying low? Do we expect to see the tour again?

Sorry if this topic has been covered. Search showed nothing.

That's what I was thinking. Only revenue generated is strictly from sponsors. I'm fairly sure the universities don't pay them to bring the tour to their campus.

It was a good time, I remember going on a shool field trip to OSU for a college tour that happened to be on the same day as the rail jam. I was the only one even paying attention to the riders, everyone else was trying to figure out how they got 10 tons of snow 2.5 hours away from the closest mountain.
