The second event of ATP’s SFTC Series, the GNU/Libtech Big Air is scheduled for Sunday, January 25!
Be on the lookout for jump construction to begin early this week in Appal Jam, as always we will have 3 different takeoffs for each category – something for everyone! GNU / Libtech has supported the Big Air for several years now and always brings a good time! Mellow Mushroom will be out supporting the event as well, offering delicious pizza for all competitors! As of now, the forecast calls for seasonal temperatures, so the conditions, landings, and takeoffs should be prime.
Remember that points are given out for placement at each SFTC event, and are tallied throughout the season to determine the overall series winners that receive the coveted cups! See the current Points Standings HERE
