Sno Mountain Skier Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 If you guys want skiers, go to newschoolers. You will attract a lot of kids to come down for the prize moeny. Quote

PASKIINGSUCKS Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 I could go for a deal like that maybe, let me get out this weekend and knock the dust off my rail and box skills. We'll see about registering in the very near future. I'll be there to watch the event regardless. Quote

Papasteeze Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 Darron better slide the box if he shows up. Quote
xNick11 Posted February 8, 2008 Report Posted February 8, 2008 I might be there raking if im needed, which will be sweet. Quote
johnnypowder Posted February 8, 2008 Author Report Posted February 8, 2008 As I type I'm standing in Union Square, NYC at the Union Square Street Sessions rail jam. All I can say is wow! But at the same time I think we could give them a run for their money. As an amateur event I think we will be about the best urban jam around. I am so stoked about our event. Looking for some quality riders to throw down big. See you on the 23rd! Quote
Justo8484 Posted February 8, 2008 Report Posted February 8, 2008 so snowboarders get people like keir dillon and the leines brothers... and skiers get darron rahlves? not to knock his ability as a skier, but he doesnt exactly seem like the type to join in on the railjam and throw down along side all of us like the guys on the snowboard side of things.

Btw Miles is 14 yo. I have also heard Bode that Bode throws 360's off of jumps, but thats not first hand info. Quote
johnnypowder Posted February 8, 2008 Author Report Posted February 8, 2008 While i can't guarantee that Daron is going to throwdown on the rails - i know he loves to! If you have been following him at all since he "retired" from racing you will find that he is tearing up the skier cross circuit, is all about free skiing and he loves jumping in the park when he gets the chance. His pretty impressive resume includes 3 time Olympian and Super G World Champion. Oh yeah, and he is the reigning Skier X champion from X-Games 12! Not your typical rail rider but for the masses he is a big name! Quote
