The call has been answered. This year, the annual P.I.S.T. rail jam that is held on Pitt's campus will include SKIERS. The date is Friday, November 14th. Start time TBA. Sponsors include Atomic, Seven Springs, Willis Ski and Board Shop, and Rome. I will post more details as we get things figured out. In the meantime, here is the edit from last year:

TRVP_LVRDAny entry fee, registration time etc?


Still working on details. Entry fee probably $10-$20. Usually we start the event at 6 or 7 so registration might start at 5ish. I will post everything once we get it set in stone.

Nope. The club started as a snowboard club only because at the time, the ski club only too skiers. It has since opened up to skiers as well, but the rail jam never changed due to logistics and lack of push from ski members. This year though, half of the officers (myself included) and members are skiers, so we think its only fair to allow skiers.

Ahh. That's pretty sick dude! Our ski club just had a rail jam 2 and a half weeks ago. It had a really great turn out. We were able to have it on campus for the first time this year which was rad! I hope your guys's has a good turnout too!
