GNU Snowboards presents TUBE CITY – POPULATION RADNESS! on February 4th at Summit at Snoqualmie, WA.
The event was born in the loins of Lib Tech’s Holy Oly Revival…starting as the side show to the ariel trickery and the 1000 method onslaught of the giant quarterpipe it grew like all good fungus grows…year after year it adapted, progressed and now, like the cheese in the classic kids song Farmer in the Dell, it stands alone. Make your travel arrangements now, because all roads, flights and ferry rides eventually lead to Tube City – Population Radness!
The event will consist of a highly creative zone of metal tubes, lift towers, propane tanks and other assorted and recycled metal in a hike-able, skatepark inspired layout.
“The Summit is known for it’s fleet of round, cold steel” says Lib Tech pro and Ballard resident Jesse Burtner, “Let’s get tubed!”
“I was just really stoked to use a reference to the Farmer in the Dell in the press release.” said event creator Krush Kulesza.
Prizes will be given out to people who deserve em and someone will we appointed the MAYOR of TUBE CITY for downright awesomeness.
Pat Bridges and the fine folks at Snowboarder Magazine are also giving out a SUPERPASS invite to Superpark to one deserving shred at the end of the event. This is a pretty big deal.
Thanks to our amazing sponsors GNU Snowboards, Arnette, Lib Tech, Poler and Snowboarder Magazine.
Registration is from 8:30-10AM at the Main Lodge at Summit Central / Discounted lift tickets will be available / Helmets are required / Under 18 needs a parents signature
