Will ‘Air & Style’ go tits deep?

Billabong’s Big Air and Style competition went down earlier this month on Saturday Dec. 5th. There were a lot of insane tricks and huge air being pulled that night.. but one thing that was missing was the women!

Well Billabong rider Anne-Flore Marxer (as well as friends Sarka Pancochova, Cheryl Maas, Tanja Detomas, Lisa Filzmoser, Jenny Jones, Jamie Anderson, Kimmy Fasani, Hana Beaman, Leanne Pelosi, Bev Vuilleumier & Marie-France Roy) thought that was a bit unfair and wanted to see women compete as well… and we agree!!!

Here’s a petition she put up to have a women’s competition at next years event. So please, if you’d like to see some women throw down at next years comp, follow the link to “sign” the petition!

Who wants to be a SNOWBUM?

Sun Peaks Resort launches video competition for an all-inclusive season on the slopes

Sun Peaks, BC – Sun Peaks Resort is excited to announce a once-in-a-lifetime competition, I want to be the Snow Bum, giving snow-lovers the chance to win an all-inclusive stay in the mountains for the entire 2009/2010 Winter Season.

One lucky skier or snowboarder will spend the ski season (three months) at BC’s second largest ski area, skiing, snowboarding, tubing, snowmobiling or even dog sledding! The competition winner will be provided with a season’s pass for the mountains, food vouchers, accommodation in a number of Sun Peak’s finest hotels, plus equipment and outerwear. The winner will also enjoy a wide range of additional perks including VIP and backstage passes to resort events and functions.

“What could be better than riding every day and living on a mountain in a world class village,” says Christopher Nicolson, President of Tourism Sun Peaks. “People travel from all over the world for a week at Sun Peaks. This winner will live and ski or board the whole winter…for free!”

Potential snow bums can win this opportunity to shred all winter by simply submitting a 60-second video showcasing their wit, charisma, love of mountains, and the ability to make the most of this spectacular adventure. The competition is open to any intermediate skier or snowboarder over 19 years, anywhere in the world.

In return for all the snow, accommodation, gear, food and airfare, the winner will be expected to keep the rest of the envious world updated on their activities through social media avenues such as Facebook, Twitter and the official blog on www.snowbumcanada.com.

Videos should be submitted to www.snowbumcanada.com by Sunday, November 15. Sun Peaks’ judges will announce finalists on November 19, who will undergo an interview and written-essay assessment. The winner will be announced December 1 and begin their three month stay on January 4, 2010. Contestants must be at least 19 years or older and have an applicable visa for the duration of their stay if they are from outside Canada. For full contest rules visit snowbumcanada.com.
