CMS Rail Jam

We are very excited to kick off the season with our USASA Rail Jam qualifier. The Rail Jam has been added as a new USASA discipline and by competing this weekend you will earn valuable national points towards  qualifying for the Rail Jam event at the USASA National Championships in early April at Copper Mountain. ALL ages are welcome to rise to the challenge and show off their skills in Hunter Mountain's Empire Park. Their park staff is working hard to provide us with a fun and innovative course.  For more details about registration and Sunday's schedule check out our story below. CMS Rail Jam

Although not a winter X event, participating this Sunday also gives you a chance to be invited to the USASA Rail Jam at Winter X Games 16 in Aspen.  Check out the USASA website for more information of what's to come at X. 2012 USASA Rail jam at Winter X Games 16
