Continental ski/ Lakeffect Best Trick Contest

Thanks to Willy, Morgan and the rest of the staff at Continental Ski and Bike for donating the prizes for last night's BEST TRICK CONTEST. One talented skier walked away with a shiny new pair of SPY goggles and a wicked little snowboarder one a CANDYGRIND hat and tshirt combo!
Keep up the trick learning guys and gals YOU ARE KILLING IT!

Looking forward to next week JAMBOX will be hosting an event!

Skivid

This video leaves me asking one question; Can you still yell TECH-9 when a skier washes out a 270?

Something to learn

Hey everyone,

If you are getting bored of the normal routine on the hill. Leave your back binding unstrapped and get goofy.



Have fun!

Also check out the rail line before you hit it this week; the ice around the rails is comparable to that on ice rinks

WOW

Check this video out!


It made me smile.

Tricks (names and meanings)

This is something for all you young folks, erm, well, maybe all you old folks, OK. Maybe this is for everyone who just does not know what we are talking about when we say "Hey, do a frontside tailpress backside 180 out" or "Do a double cork" and other like demands.......

Study up; I will see you on Friday (there will be a timed quiz and spelling counts!)

WAAAHOOOO!

Hey everyone!
Thank you to Ben, Kai, TJ, Sam, Dillon, Anthony, and everyone else who showed up to volunteer last night!

This upcoming Friday we have got something very special for you all!
We are going to put on a few games of SNOW on the box or rail. (like the basketball game horse except on a snowboard or skis. One person does a trick and everyone playing the game has to mimic that same trick exactly otherwise he/she receives a letter. Once a person spells SNOW they are out of the game).
Here is the catch in order to win a prize you have got to beat Mr. Kai Sandal! So practice your moves this week! Skiers do not fret! There will a few games of POW for you too!
