Burton's Abominable Snowjam 2007
Wrapping up on Burton's Abominable Snow Jam Competition, featuring Top Riders and over $140,000 in Prizes...lets just say it doesn't get much better than that! 3 days out of the office, lost amongst campers, cobra dogs and Volcano Cones...
As evo welcomes Burton as one of our newest lines both in the Seattle store and online for the 2007 2008 winter, we couldn't think a better way to welcome them to the family then to send the evo crew to Mt. Hood for ASJ to experience it first hand.
Burton's fourth annual Abominable Snow Jam snowboarding competition went down and top snowboarders from all over the world converged on Mt. Hood for the summer's biggest snowboarding event, which went down July 10-12, 2007 at High Cascade Snowboard Camp and Timberline Resort on Mt. Hood, Oregon. The Burton Abominable Snow Jam is the first stop on the prestigious TTR World Snowboard Tour.
Featuring a quarterpipe, halfpipe and slopestyle competition, the Abominable Snow Jam brought down top riders to Mt. Hood for a laid-back event in the hub of the summer snowboard scene. This year's attendees includes male riders Mason Aguirre, Danny Kass, Ross Powers, Jussi Oksanen, Peter Line, Eddie Wall, Kevin Pearce, Pat Moore, Scotty Lago, Chris Rotax, Willy Yli Luoma, Keir Dillon, Keegan Valaika and Andreas Wiig.
