On January 10th, head to Loon Mountain for the 2nd stop of the Vans Mini Cup; a new series of three rail jams going down all around the USA this winter. The event starts at 11:00 am and will feature an open jam session, narrowing down to a 10-man final (judged by Vans Snow team riders Darrell Mathes and Scotty Arnold along with team manager Doran Laybourn). The winner will win an all-expense-paid trip to the Vans Cup at Mammoth!! AND a slot in the event’s invite-only rail jam. Sweeeet.
Interested in participating? You can register at Loon Mountain on the day of the event from 8am to 10am. Visit www.vanssnow.com/minicup for all the information you need to enter and slay it.
