Anyone know if and when the Killington dew tour will be held? I know this year it may be a bit different with the olympics happening but just curious is there is any word about the competition.

Probably never? The last time they had a 3 stop Dew Tour was 2012(?) if I remember correctly.

World Cup girls in speed suits there like next weekend or something. That event brings in 5 times the crowd and revenue then the jumps and jibs. Good watch and fun. I'd go if I was there

I might be wrong but I'm pretty sure killi dropped mountain dew for coca cola so now the dew tour doesn't come here anymore. Like I said I could be completely wrong idk.

Dew Tour stopped being a tour in like 2012 or 2013. The "tour" is just branding.

I wish it had done better honestly. I liked X games having more competition. In the 90s/ early 2000s there were gravity games, B3 in the summer, and other stuff. Also all the halfpipe comps.

Even the moguls comps and stuff. Doesn't seem like there's as much good stuff on tv these days.

We need more damn comps.

I was at the last one at Killington, and it was totally awesome.

Killington is an awesome East coast ski resort in general.

Killington may or may not have Rails To Riches coming up, if I’m not mistaken.

FIS World Cup this weekend is a party and a half. If you're on the east coast it is worth a trip.
