The snowboard side of things at last weekends 1st Annual Battle of the Bales Rails was top notch. We had two divisions going and the talent that came out was quite entertaining. The conditions were definitely on our side. Thanks to everyone who came out to participate and support the event. The set up for the snowboard competitors was the same as the skiers, a flat down box with a small gap and a 15ft. down rail. We cant wait for next years event.
