The group of skiers that showed up to compete ran the gamut from grom to rising local pro and hailed from NJ, PA, and VT. Mountain Creek built a signature feature for the day that featured a clear-walled Red Bull wallride on top of a large hip, enabling competitors to pick their line and hit the feature in a large variety of ways. The sunny skies and impressive trickery of the competitors drew the attention of everyone whether they were riding by on the trails or hanging out on the porch of the KINK bar.
After all of the backflips, huge spins, and creative rail jibbing that went down during the two 25-minute heats and 25-minute finals, it was Peter Engen who won the contest and walked away with a paid trip to compete in the Dumont Cup in March at Sunday River, Maine. Peter also won a pair of skis and a prize pack from the event sponsors. Second and third place won tons of prizes as well, and a Best Trick was awarded, earning another pair of skis. A product toss for competitors and spectators finished the event, with tons of smiles ending the picture perfect Mountain Creek day.
