It was a busy day in the Habitat Terrain Park on Whistler this past Sunday as over 100 skiers and boarders came out for the second Sprite Park Rider Session slopestyle event of the season. There were so many athletes that the top-four athletes were recognized in some categories instead of just the top-three.
There are now four events remaining in the session season a halfpipe on April 2 on Blackcomb, and three rail jams on Whistler (May 7, May 14 and May 21).
To take part you can register in advance at any Whistler-Blackcomb Guest Relations location, or on the day of the event in the Roundhouse or Rendezvous until 9:45 a.m., depending what mountain the event is on. Pre-registration is recommended because events have been known to sell out for certain categories.
