The International event -- BIG AIR has arrived in Denver! There was 6 FEET of snow pumped onto the ramp with a 14-story tower, 300 feet long, 101 feet tall and 80 feet wide so the boarders will have great snow! This ramp is located in Civic Center Park and has brought athletes to compete this week. This is an honor for Denver to sponsor this event, as it has been ongoing for the last three years, and the first to held in the U.S.
The competition starts today and will be viewed on Saturday on NBC at 2 pm. The promoters have space for 10,000 viewers for this event. Great place to view EXTREME skiing in Denver! The best viewing spot will be at Bannock in front of the City & County Building.
These skiers and boarders are hopeful for positive results to be able to move on to the X Games in Aspen and possibly get into the next Winter Olympics. The sponsors are watching, and all the participants are hopeful. Ticket sales are closed, however, you can still view this event for free at Bannock in front of the City & County Building.
