No, we are not trying to scam you or get your PayPal for a sketchy NCAA bracket. We have just done the hard work of putting 64 men and 64 women riders into the NCAA bracket to see which one comes out on top. There is no riding or voting involved. There is really nothing to do besides sit back and watch which team outscores the other and advances their attached rider all the way to the final. Think of it like this. Nik Baden is now Duke. Mark McMorris is Purdue. Jill Perkins is Texas. Emma Crosby is Virginia Tech. Get it? Now look at the bracket below and make your pick. Remember, THE BASKETBALL TEAM WILL DETERMINE THE OUTCOME.

From backcountry to street, this is how we are naming our national champ this year because let’s be honest, an internet award posted on Instagram with no trophy doesn’t really matter, does it? Maybe we will make a trophy. THE ONLY THING THAT DOES MATTER IS IF YOU PICK THE WINNERS CORRECTLY BELOW, YOU WILL RECEIVE A SURPRISE FROM BLACKSTRAP AND SNOWBOARD MAGAZINE. Enter below! The ability to enter will be closed after the second round is complete on March 24 (or maybe Sweet Sixteen, we are flying by the seat of our pants over here).

See. Easy. See you in April.
