One Pond Skim...coming right up!

Time and time again, spring comes and ski resorts try their attempt at the pond skim. Fortunately for you, Echo Mountain knows how to do it right. On April 12th, Jockey’s Intergalactic Pond Skim of 08’ will occur. We’ll toss a feature into the middle (make things more interesting) and reward the best “pond skimmers” with some healthy prizes. Did I mention everyone who enters will receive new underwear? Keep your eyes peeled for photos and video edits of last year’s Intergalactic Pond Skim.

Liptricks Not Lipstick...good idea!!!

Everyone put away their lipstick and whipped out some liptricks for Echo Mountain’s second birthday this past weekend. A big, blue sky and a hot, hot sun made this birthday one to remember. There were pretzels and hand plants, one-footers and switch-ups and enough spinning on and off of everything to make the judges dizzy.

Liptricks Not Lipstick

The course was divided into two sections, having the skiers and snowboarders switch sides after their allowed session time. Skiers left consisted of two urban down rails, a gap to flat-down box (all surrounded by a lovely set of snow stairs) and the infamous fan box feature. Skiers right consisted of a log jib at the top, an option of either a picnic table or the Rome Jersey barrier which lead to a hefty semi-truck tire and an upright picnic table.
