About this Event
This event is for snowboards and snowskates only.Please register for only one category. We will not allow one registrant to race in multiple categories.
Join us for TWO DAYS of Blauvelt's Banks at Bolton Valley's Timberline Base Area!
Like last year, every registrant will get one run on Saturday and the top half of each category will move on for two runs on Sunday to decide our podiums. This new two day format will allow us to not only have more participants, but also raise more money for a cause near and dear to Jake. Like last years event, all proceeds from the day will be donated to the 501C3 non profit and fiscal agent spearheading a project Jake is passionate about: the proposed Waterbury Skatepark.
If you joined us in years past, you know this is indeed a good time, with wonderful people, for a great cause. Jake Blauvelt returns to the mountain where it all started for him to host his 3rd Banked Slalom to connect with the Vermont riding community, where Jake was born and cut his riding chops and has returned to raise his family.
All registrations include:
Entry to Banked Slalom and lift ticket for riding until 10pm on Saturday (under LED lights) and 4pm on Sunday (no night skiing Sunday).
Divisions: Open/Pro Men’s* , Open/Pro Women’s*, AM Men’s, AM Women’s, Legends - Men (ages 45+), Legends - Women (ages 45+), Grom Boys (12+ Under), Grom Girls (12+ Under), Open Snow Skate
* to enter the "open/pro" category, you do not need to be a professional, according to Jake "you just have to consider yourself fast enough to hang with the fastest!"
