We wanted to give everyone a glimpse of what is going on out here day to day, which at the moment consists of some terrain expansion on our older terrain park, Appaljack. This means more room, more setup time for all features, better lines, and way more possibilities to get creative with. Enough with the talk though, check some photos for yourself:]]> Jib Academy Finals! http://www.appterrainpark.com/NewsDetail.asp?i=jnmocmg4 5/7/2008

 Winners of their local Salomon Jib Academy programs, a dozen of the best young freeskiers from Europe and North America, will have their ultimate ski fantasy come true this week in Mammoth, California with members of the Salomon Freeski team. From May 4th through 9th, these kids will be living the life of a pro as they eat, sleep, ski and film with their idols. The Jib Academy participants will ski in a jam session format with the pros, highlighted by a sunset photo shoot on a jump specially made for the Salomon team.

“I am looking forward to shred with all the Gs in the Salomon crew at a really legit mountain! I hope to meet some new people,  start a future relationship with Salomon skis and represent the South!” says Charlie Owens, Appalachian Ski Mtn winner from North Carolina.

The Jib Academy Final is more of an end of the season party than an actual competition. Last year’s Jib Academy MVP,  Nick Martini, was sent to Sweden to compete along side Simon Dumont and Sammy Carlson in the King of Style Big Air. Other then skiing, weekly activities include swimming, bowling, soccer, skateboarding and movie nights. The Salomon Freeski TV crew will have cameras rolling and participants will also get to participate in product testing. You can check out all the daily action on salomonfreeski.com, newschoolers.com and freeskier.com!

]]> Meltdown Games Information http://www.appterrainpark.com/NewsDetail.asp?i=jnmnorc0 3/28/2008

ATP’s last weekend of shredding will be this Saturday and Sunday, March 29-30. Take advantage of the last chance to get out and ride this season! We will be closing with both Terrain Parks open containing over 11 features.

You have to get here this weekend for the Meltdown Games! Going on all this weekend, there are TONS of great prizes for all events and registration is completely free. It is a great way to cap off an amazing season here at ATP.

Don’t miss your chance to hit the biggest booter of the season by far. Appalachian’s state of the art pumping and snowmaking facilities have left us with plenty of snow to push around, and the Big Air jump is no doubt the first of its kind in the region. Stepover style, with 2 nice long takeoffs measuring in at 55 feet and 35 feet. It’s a big one!

Check out the full events schedule, and we will see you this weekend!
