Lineup announced for Urban Rail Session

The line-up of athletes for the second annual Urban Rail Session of the Telus World Ski and Snowboard Festival was announced this week, with 10 pro snowboarders and 10 pro skiers battling it out for $10,000 in cash.

The format is similar to last year, with riders dropping in on a rail from the GLC patio. Each rider gets two hits to start, followed by a 20 minute jam session. The top women will be determined by the two runs and the jam, while the top two male skiers and riders will advance to a two-hit head-to-head final to determine the overall winner.

The Urban Rail Session takes place Friday, April 15 in Skiers Plaza, starting at 9 a.m. Entertainment will be provided by fire spinners, break dancers and DJ’s.
