Word to the 3rd

Under Armour MTN's The 3rd Rail Jam returned to Mountain Creek for its fifth year on Saturday, January 7th. Named after New York City's most lethal subway rail, The 3rd Rail Jam unites some of the nation's best amateur skiers and snowboarders with local graffiti artists, hip-hop artists, bands and DJs.



Over 140 fearless competitors showed up Saturday afternoon to throw down in this winner-take-all event. Competitors in four divisions - Juniors (snowboarders ages 15 and under), Girls (snowboarders of all ages), Skiers (all ages) and Best of Breed (male snowboarders ages 16+) - had 45 minutes to showcase their skills to make it through to the finals for a chance to win cash money, gear and accessories.



When it was all said and done here's how it went down:
Juniors - Sean Neary (two-time winner '10 and '12)
Girls - Elise Fugowski (two-time winner '11 and '12)
Skiers - Sam Zahner
Best of Breed - Tome Weiss (three-time winner '08, '09 and '12)
