We’re doing things a little differently this year. Our signature trade show, auction and speaking events will be virtual, clinics and tours will still be based in the beautiful Revelstoke BC Backcountry. Same great community, more speakers, and epic prizes. Speaking of prizes, everything you need to know prize wise is online here. Raffle your heart out!
We will kick off the online auction and prize draws on Saturday January 2, 2021. The online auction will allow you to bid on items or purchase draw tickets to win some big prizes. This online site will be live from January 2 to January 10, 2021. There will be plenty of big prizes such as the Heli-Assisted Guided Package from Eagle Pass Heliski, boards and gear from your favourite brands like Weston Backcountry, Nitro, Arc’teryx, Spark R&D, CFR and many more.
(RE)FRESH INTO THE BACKCOUNTRY: Tonight is about unity and community. Let’s not only get nostalgic about our first time splitboarding with some heavy-hitting professional snowboarders but let’s also break down some barriers for new splitboarders alike. We’ll be hosting three panels curated with specialists on each topic to educate, stoke, and connect all splitboarders.
SUNDAY JANUARY 10, 2021
