Bousquet Mountain is having a rail jam Jan 26th at 5:30 pm. It's sponsored by a new clothing company called Miro Eco and the Board Room in northhampton. It's $25 to register early or $35 at the comp. The comp will be broken up into skiing and snowboarding. I'm working at bousquet during my college break its true that there park is absolutely terrible, however I saw the rails built for the rail jam and they are MASSIVE, i'll hopefully get some pictures soon there is going to be a battleship and a flat to down kink and a few others. But seriously the battleship is beastly and its all ive been thinking about the past few days cant wait to help them set it up. Prizes will include cash, free clothing, free gear, and I was talking to the owner of Miro Eco and I guess they are talking to some big named companies in both the skiing and snowboarding industry so hopefully that works out. Anyways Miro Eco is an environmental friendly clothing company and alot of their money will be donated to this cause. The entry fee also includeds a lift ticket to the mountain for the day. I'm def going just to hit the battleship. If anyone has anymore questions give me a message on here and I'll talk to the owner or just go to Bousquet and ask for Rob or Miguel in ski rentals. Anyways bousquet hasnt had a good park for years its about time we had a good rail jam so I'm hoping it goes well.

wait are the "new rails" actually new or are they the old ones just sitting at bousquet, this sound pretty legit but mad expensive. Jiminy 1st place is skis and is less money and a better mountain. W.e we shall see how it goes.

^yes i know i was there competing the whole time. i give cory props for doing a switch 270 onto one of the sketchiest flat down rails ever and crashing real hard on a 450 on but i just think that a pretzel on that first rail was more tech. either way the rail jam was fun and thats what freestyle is all about, some people like your stuff and others dont and i just happened to think the tricks eliot did were more tech.

eliot may have competed but he definetly didn't win. I'm pretty sure eliot ended up crying in his defeat as well.
