Pro Ride jump day

Pro Ride Snowboard Camps ventured out into the Whistler Blackcomb backcountry last Tuesday for another one of our epic jump days. Coaches and Campers gathered in Whistler village during the early hours of the morning, all geared up and ready for a full day out on the hill. As soon as Seventh Heaven opened up, these guys were ready in line to go and pick the perfect spot to spend the day. The crew hiked over to Xhiggy's Meadow, just off the top of Seventh Heaven on Blackcomb, where they set up camp and started building two big kickers in the middle of a perfect powder field.

Once the set up was completed campers started testing the jumps one by one, throwing in a few grabs here and there. It didn't take long before the theme of the day emerged, backflips were the hot topic and where better to try your first one than in a soft powder field with a pain-free landing. It ended up being a beautiful bluebird day, so check out the stunning footage we got of this awesome day.
