Just announced- Camelback will be hosting a Rail Jam in conjunction with Slide Ink, The Mid-Atlantic Snowboard Series and The Loft on Friday April 13, 2007. It will be held from 5:00pm-8:00pm on the Sunbowl, jam format with cash prizes for the top male and top female. We will have a DJ and a BBQ on the Sunbowl Lodge deck. Registration is only $5.00 (all competitors will need to sign a release form and those under 18 will need a parent present). We have a poll set up on our website to determine which rails and boxes will be used- check out http://www.skicamelback.com/springevents.php to cast your vote! Hope to see you all there!

Why cant Blue Mountain do something like this?

 

I guess they are just all about the money to even think about doing something they wont make much money on.

 

Camelback will have skiing after blue is closed....interesting how the tables have turned... ;)

are they going to use that 40ft flat rail that is bent as fuck because they hit it with groomers? i hope so. thats something that camelback would do. anybody know how conditions were this weekend???

 

That hasn't been out at all this year. I don't even think it was on the snow last year... but I could be wrong.

A few updates in the details for the Rail Jam on Friday the 13th:

 

Registration for the event will be 4:00-5:00pm at the Glen Lodge ($5.00 registration fee and all participants must sign a release form, anyone under 18 will need a parent/guardian present to sign for them). The Rail Jam will be from 5:00-8:00pm. The event has been moved from the Sunbowl to where lower Nile and Cliffhanger meet, and the BBQ will be at the base of the Stevenson.

 

You can vote online for which rails will be used up until Wednesday April 11th at http://www.skicamelback.com/springevents.php. There will 2 flat box rails, a 40 foot flat rail, plus one of the following (based on the results of the online poll):

Flat - Down - Flat Rail

Flat to Down Rail

Battleship Rail

C-Bow Box

Flat to Down Box

Much better choices Ash! That steeper section at the Stevenson lift should be next perfect for a decent in-run. The 40' rail will separate a lot of people just spinning on and over the boxes.

 

My vote would be for the up flat down "battleship" rail.

put the flat rail out . none of the circus mumbo jumbo :nono

 

 

well if you can read haha it was just stated that there WILL be 2 flat boxes and the 40ft flat rail.. and then the other option would be the winner of the polls

 

its def gonna be fun.. and i like the location im gonna have to wax up the dominant or else i wont be moving at all on the snow, the last day when i was at BB with 60 degree weather and wet snow, i could barely make it down the trail without stopping let alone have enough speed to grease a rail or 2
