Imagine a nice backcountry slope in the summer. Carpenters come and build all sorts of objects, jumps, cliffs, tables, rails etc… Then comes winter. It snow and all the objects are covered in snow. What you get is a backcountry run on steroids with gazillion of options for every rider. Then put a series of snow shaped kickers into the middle and don’t let anyone ride it until the competition begins. Deep untouched powder.
Sounds cool? This is what Red Bull did for the Supernatural contest in Baldface Lodge outside of Nelson, B.C., Canada. And the winner? Probably everyone that got a chance to ride but in the end – Travis Rice.
Congrats to Travis and to Red Bull.
