On February 14th Sunday River and sugarloaf put together a rail jam in the center of downtown Portland during the winterush celebration. Sunday river and sugarloaf combined together and built a two-story starting ramp leading into a 30-foot long, three-rail staircase complete with an overturned lobster boat hull as the park’s sliding surface finish area. 16 skiers and 16 snowboarders threw down against each other in this cash prize competition. The competition consisted of three rounds, warm ups, open jam and finals. The final round consisted of the last eight skiers and snowboarders standing in the competition and this is where things really heated up. The competition ended in a first, second and third prize. For the snowboarders Tristan Corriveau took first place with a $5000 dollar cash prize and on the skiers side Richie Paradise walked away with the $5000 dollar cash prize as well. The competition was accompanied by live music performed by DJ light and MC’s. This was a great competition or skiers and boarders to be able to walk away with bragging rights.
