Loaded Turkey Rail Jam

This year, we’re kicking off the season with a rail jam, good ol’ Thanksgiving style. That’s right, we've got a turkey as the grand prize along with all the fixings for second and third place winners. In addition, four top competitors will receive free entry into Rails 2 Riches!

Location

Upper Downdraft

Rules

  • Each participant must wear a properly fastened snow sports helmet during all event practice/inspection and competition.
  • Scope it out. Make a habit of course/venue inspection before every event.
  • Know your limits (skill and ability levels) and stay within them. This isn’t the time to try something you’ve never done before.

Format

Qualifiers

Open format rail jam for all competitors. Take as many runs as your legs will allow. Judges will advance the top competitors in each division.

Finals

Each qualifying competitor will have two runs through the rail park. Each run will be scored, best run counts. After your first run, you must hike back up to take the second. If you are not present at the time of your drop, you will forfeit your run. Winners will be selected for each division based on their best run.
