I wanted to find out who was going to the Buckman's Rail Jam tomorrow and at what time.

I was going to ride Boulder Saturday and stay through Sunday,
but now I'm thinking about grabbing 1st chair Saturday and driving back to Buckman's for the Rail Jam.


I called the shop and got a few times from them:
3pm = Qualifying heats begin
7pm = Finals
8:45 = Award Ceremony

Ok, here's the deal -
First, check out the gallery with photos from set up today.
The course is side by side flat/down and up/down finishing with a mini wall (the black Red Bull feature).

Competitor Check in is at 1pm
Practice is 1:30-2:30pm
Competitor meeting 2::45pm
Qualifying Heats begin 3pm
Pro Session approx 6:20pm
Finals start 7pm
Awards 8:45pm
(all times approximate)

Going to be a great time even if you aren't competing. Loads of giveaways.

See you tomorrow!

I'm definitley gonna head out today. I have nothing else to do..

looks like fun.

leaving now.

Oh, my, god.

That setup looks so sick. I'm super pissed I didn't enter haha.

I'll still be up anyway, seeing as KOP isn't far.

Just kidding.

my booyyyyyyy KevinThomas won the rail jam and $1500 bones! so stoked for him. one of PASR's own! siiiick! everybody give him props for his skills!

Hell Yeah... The Real KT is the shizzzit!! Major Grats!!

Whaaaaaaat that is siiiiiiiiiick! KILLIN' IT!

yeah he is siiiick. i wish i was there to celebrate with him and the rest of the crew!

Was he #11?
If so, he killed it.
#11 had my vote before the judges announced it.

I left Big Boulder and made it to Buckman's by 6pm.
I'm glad I was able to catch the finals.
Kildares afterwards was a good time too.
Hoegaarden.....mmmmmmm.

I stopped by when I was finished shopping and I was surprised how small it was. I don't know why I was expecting bigger but I was. Nevertheless it looked kinda fun.

way to go kt, thats so sick. anyone have any videos of the even yet?

Congrats KT..wow $1500 bucks for doing what you like to do...awesome

just like professionals...omgz

thats awsome great for him! i saw him throw down and i think i was talking to him when i was chillin in the rome tent.

oh and set up wasnt that sick. i think it could have been better if the box didnt have SQUARE coping and they should have just had like a flat box and the single barrel flat down. either that or have the aframe with more of a gap on and off of it. over all it was SUPER fun. i didnt even throw down. at all. but i still had a ball. its prob. one of the most fun things i have ever done like that. only bumber was haveing to argue with the guy just to get ONE practice run. he was like you you you and you and then practice is over but we actually waited in line and not just cut it like everyone else and barly got one practice run.

kinda sucks that you didnt have a practice run. i wish i would have done it. especially since KT won. i missed out. shit.

yea such a sick comp. The whole day was so much fun KT and Stunt were killin it



Stout unfortunately got screwed over in the finals tho

times ten. Still stunned in a big way...


Definitely a fun evening, but some obvious mistakes in judging and no policing of the lines contributed to some jaded feelings on the parts of myself and others.


In any case, thanks a ton for putting this on Johnny. Again there was a ton of swag and everyone that I knew who came was having a blast until the very end. Thats part of entering a comp though.

Congrats again KT! Finals didn't go too well for me. The nasty pizza from the mall started to f with my stomach oh well. For next year some kind of line organization would be cool. Really fun event though everyone was throwin down and had real laid back feel between heats. Any chance we could see a score sheet/final results list posted somewhere???

Oh and i would have expected to see a PASR booth or something double u tee eff??

Anyone have any pics and/or video of it? I wanted to go but other things came up and couldn't make it.

Under statement of the year.

couldnt agree more. kid deserved SOMETHING!

big ups to john for gettin this thing goin though. lots of fun and a good vibe throughout the event for the most part.

yea the judges definately must have mixed up matts bib with the other kid, which would make sense cuz I dont think he did as well as Kevin, but I got third and he definately did better than me. No offense to that kid who got 2nd but he didnt do nearly as good as matt

yeah matt got screwed. i just watched the video ryan got of our finals run and matt was definitely killin it. were their bib number similar?

Anyone know the official results (snowboard)? I left after the pro session so I didnt get to see finals. Elf and louie were killin it as well as the kid in the leather jacket and the kid on the pink Burton.

Tom weiss won.

who is that?

Who was #11 ???

anyone have pics or vid from this jawn??

See this topic

didn't see one skier in that and they were the ones throwing down some of the sickest tricks.

skiers are always the ones throwing down the sickest tricks

If you like seeing ballet on rails... see how many spins and switchups you can do. Thats all i saw them doing. Besides like 2 kids with nice style and smoothness

i actually did notice that and i dont think that kid that was just throwing the millions of switchups and stuff placed.

These days it's all about spin to win..I'm more of a steeze guy myself..

its okay to be jealous. but dont hate on the kids who win because they can do it.

word, those who hate on the huge spins do so because, GENERALLY they can't do them themselves.

i wasnt trying to hate on huge spins i just think the people who didnt just butter switchup butter switchup butter switchup looked better.

no doubt, I am with you. There are 2 different types of comps out there. The technical ones and the promotional (spin to win) ones.

i AM trying to hate on huge spins. anybody can spin onto a rail and keep on spinning. people who can spin on to a rail, hold and edge, switch up, hold an edge, switch up, hold and edge, and spin out are the people who are deserving of a win. not people who hurricane or whatever the fuck they call it.
