UNKLE is proud to present the Whistler Longboard Festival at the Whistler Sliding Centre on the base of Blackcomb Mountain. This is a 2 Day Skateboard Race weekend set for June 25th and 26th 2011. A highly technical 1 mile race track drops over 2000 feet as riders fly through EIGHT (8) 180 degree hairpins. Saturday will be freeride with racing on Sunday.
Only a road this unique would be carved and blasted into the mountain for Olympic gravity sports of Luge, Skeleton and Bobsled. The Olympics are OVER, NOW IT’S OUR TURN! There will be a large CASH PODIUM up for grabs to top Open, Women’s, and Junior Classes. Affordable accommodations are planned for the Whistler Athletes Centre Lodge, or camping available at Riverside.
Registration and full website will be up on Monday May 16th at www.whistlerlongboard.com.
