The Volcom Peanut Butter and Rail Jam is back at Mountain Creek this weekend!  Registration at 8am at South Lodge.

From Volcom:

The goal of the series is to give something back to the kids. Deviating from the established way snowboard contests are run, we put our heads together and came up with a fresh format. Instead of having three rails in a row, we put them side by side to create a rail zone. This boosts the energy level and fun nature of the contest because everyone is together, riding, hiking, and watching in a big group. There are four divisions; 15 & under, 16 & over, Girls and Open (pro-am). The contest runs in a jam format so there are no scheduled runs. You can hit each of the rails as many times as you want during your 20 minute heat. The judges only care about tricks you pull, so you don’t need to worry about falling. The event is absolutely free, on a first come first serve basis, and boasts tons of free prizes and PB&J sandwiches! Also, Everyone who enters walks away with a t-shirt and stickers!! See you on the hill!

Armada Skis built its brand from pure freeride roots and year after year they’re the first company park rats look to for inspiration. Their team features some of the biggest names in freeride skiing like JP Auclair, Jacob Wester, Phil Casabon, and Tanner Hall. With this much knowledge and experience stacked on one team, you know their skis are designed to get the job done.  Stop by the Ski Shop to complete your setup!

Pipe purists will feel right at home with the Armada Pipe Cleaner Ski which was designed specifically for taking on icy pipe walls. This full camber, twin tip ski comes complete with a comp base for speed and an oversized, heat-treated edge for durability.

If you’re into the urban scene and rails are your jam, the Armada T-Hall Ski is stiff and cambered underfoot with a softer carbon-kevlar strung tip and tail to give you the pop you need for slaying urban features.

Whether your playground is East or West coast based, when the soft and white piles up, the last thing you want is the be stuck on sinking skinny skis. The Armada JJ Ski is the answer to your prayers with a 115mm waist and 136 and 133mm contact points in the tip and tail respectively. This ski is incredibly maneuverable in hardpack and rough snow conditions thanks to its Freeride Rocker Profile, so East coasters should give this ski a second look.  Get Stoked! Winter is upon us, don’t be unprepared. That’s just dumb.
