World Snowboarding Day w/ the World’s Best Snowboarder!!!
OK, so we may be a little biased, but 2 Olympic Gold Medals pretty much puts anyone on the BEST List, for sure! The whole planet is celebrating the 10th annual World Snowboard day on this weekend to introduce new people to the snowport, and celebrate the camaraderie among riders. The weekend event will feature a free showing of the Transworld Snowboard’s new movie, Origins, & discounted learn-to-ride lessons for beginners, plus free snowboard demos at the Burton Signature Store (say Hi to our guy Jonny!), as well as an ollie contest on The Beach. Only at Sugarloaf will two-time Olympic snowboardcross gold medalist, Seth Wescott, be hosting group rides regularly throughout the day!
