Some argue with the appropriateness of calling snowboarding a sport but on July 2 of Session Two at High Cascade Snowboard Camp, Ride Snowboards and K2 Snowboarding will challenge the entire notion of collective collaboration on a twin tip. Introducing Team Sports, Ride and K2’s addition to the competitive spirit.

The concept is simple. There will be two teams, one comprised of K2 pros Jake Kuzyk, Nick Dirks and Johnny Brady, and the other includes Danimals, Derek Lever and Spencer Schubert of Ride. Going head-to-head, the captains are tasked with assembling an entourage of camp shredders with the ability to attack a single jump and downrail with calculated precision.

A total of 56 tricks, 28 on each feature, have been designated for each team to perform to claim victory. Everything from a basic 50-50 to a 540 seatbelt must be executed before a team can be declared the winner, whose names will then be immortalized in the prestigious Team Sports trophy. All summer long, this symbol of snowboarding achievement will be engraved with the select few who are destined to complete the daunting task set before them.

Even if you are not “competing,” hot dogs and good times will be in bountiful supply in the Main Park of High Cascade.

Let the non-competitive (but still pretty competitive) games begin.
