Dew Tour Re-Cap :: Mt. Snow, VT

This past weekend at Mount Snow was the 2nd stop of the Dew Tour. The next and last stop is at Northstar at Tahoe in Truckee, CA in February. Tons and tons of snowboarding and skiing fanatics came out to watch the pros throw down, party with the pros, try to score VIP bracelets and ride Mt. Snow. The "festival village" they set up also had the Flobots playing along with Boys like Girls, lots of vendor booths and food and more Mountain Dew then a teenage boy could dream of. Everyone was super amped up on the caffeine and psyched for all the free give a ways.
Men's slopestyle finals was an amazing event to watch. With rails at the top, one rail in the middle and two big jumps at the bottom made for a serious course.
Coming in first place from Norway was Torstein Horgmo, 92.67. Second place was Olympic Gold medalist, Shaun White with a final score of 92.33. And in third place was Andreas Wiig, also from Norway with a final score of 88.00.

On Sunday was the superpipe finals with Shaun White coming in first and totally killing it in the pipe. Steve Fisher in second and Kevin Pearce in Third place. There was a approximately of 24,800 fans that came out to witness snowboarding and skiing at its finest. It was crazy! Check out www.allisports.com for full coverage of the weekend!

New News!

Get ready for some snow! CT will finally get hit with some snow which is supposed to amount to something. Which is just pretty much awesome. I hope you put your snow tires on!
On another note, Mount Snow is hosting the DEW tour January 8th to 11th. This is going to be an awesome time with great riders, wild parties and features BOTH freestyle skiing and snowboarding. It is the ONLY east coast stop on the tour. Mount Snow is only 2.5 hours away from New Haven. So if I were you, I would start planning in order to catch the best freestylers play around on the 95 acres of freestyle terrain Mount Snow has. Elena Hight, Danny Kass, Hana Beaman, Keir Dillon, Kelly Clark, Mason Aguirre, Kevin Pearce and Pat Moore will all be there plus others! Check out http://www.allisports.com/events/mount-snow for all the detailed details.
ALSO, we got some fresh new gear in from Mishka, RVCA and Burton. Some come and check it out! This is the new Mishka Varsity Jacket that we just got in.... And don't forget that everything is 30% off except for Uggs!
