Rail Jam and Premiere at the U of M

[travis_halverson]

There is a snowboarding movie Premiere and rail jam at the University of Minnesota on November 17th. Not sure on a time quite yet. There will only be like 15 snowboaders and they will all be invited but if everyone comes out and supports it enough, it will probably include skiers next year. The premiere is the movie Community Project.

There might be a skiing demo at the rail jam, but only Steve shelby, Mike Hornbeck, Cody Ling and Craig Weiler will be invited. They said thats all they will allow.

That is what Doug from Pinewskis said. He said his hands are tied. He had to work just to get those four in.

Doug has built an amazing setup for this event everyone should come check it out. That way we can continue to have more of these events. Midwest Massacre is going to be insane!!

 

[travis_halverson]

what is the rail going to be

 

[zachpope18]

17' Up, to a 1' drop, to like another 17' down. Itll be sick. Pretty sure Rail jams at around 10pm, snowboard movie premiers at like 8 or somewhere around there. Itll be sick.

 

[travis_halverson]

I checked it out today. They have a two story scaffolding setup. The rail is huge. Definately come check it out. Just to give you a frame of reference; imagine the summer rail jam and double it.

 

[BigShanks04]

yeah the rail and in run are HUGE, and the bar has a big deck on the back where everyone will be... its 18+ to get in, and an open bar, probably lots of free shit too

 

[hype]

just got done getting TONS of snow....for the jam. everybody should check it out

 

[weiler]

skiing will be first from what I understand...should start at around 8pm

 

[BigShanks04]

the 2nd movie showing is at 8:30... the rail jam starts at 10

 

[travis_halverson]

It was pretty cool. The setup was awsome. Everly killed it. I couldnt do shit. The skiers got to session for about half an hour.

 

[TrollHuck1080]

[D-40]

i wanted cody to get that 360 switchup so bad

 

[travis_halverson]

are you sure it was blind, I think it was fronside.

 

[D-40]

i think it was blind too. it was crazy none the less. that was the sexiest one footer i have ever seen, i dont know why poeple bitch about them if they look like that. i wish he would have gotten switch on though

 

[mnjib]

zacks my boy.....well he's not really a boy any more but still super killer skier ride with him all the time(infact we skied at wild today) i think he should have stuck with the one footer change ups he would have "won" the thing with that.
