The third installment of the Village Rider Rail Jam at Big White went down this weekend, and it definitely didn't disappoint. A stacked field including Mike Senger, Tyy Clark, Ryan Manning, Mat Galina, Corey Kowalski, Patrick Monteith and Shaun Manning were out throwing down some next-level tricks on the custom setup in TELUS Park.
When the snow settled, it was Clark leading the men's snowboard side, Janelle LeClair taking the women's snowboard title and Monteith taking home his third straight victory in the men's ski category. Galina also got a nod for best trick after stomping a nollie hardway 270, 270 out on the 40' bar as time ran out on the session.
The entire Terrain Park and Outdoor Events staff would like to give a big thank you to all the competitors and all the spectators who came out to watch. Don't miss the last jam of the season coming up on March 13th

Village Rider Rail Jam coming up!
February 12, 2010
Things are gearing up in the TELUS Park at Big White for the third installment of our Village Rider Rail Jam series.
The park crew has been working on the course all week, and the setup is looking tight. The 40' down bar will be staying put on rider's right , while the 20' box has been brought down from the top of the large lane, and been put in to place in the middle of the course. The final combination of features will be a streetstyle setup on rider's left that will include an ironing board and the shotgun rail.
Please keep in mind that we'll only be accepting pre-registrations up until 2 p.m. on Friday, February 19th. Registration on the day of the event will be taking place in the Village Centre Mall from 1 to 3 p.m. as usual. If you're not riding, we'd still love to see you come out and cheer on all the local shredders as they throw down on the custom setup.
