Silverado and Tram Face to host Freeride World Tour Event at Squaw Valley
The venues have been chosen for the 2009 Freeride World Tour event at Squaw Valley USA. The first day of the event will be held in Silverado on Friday, February 27th starting at 9:30 AM. Day 2 will take place on the Tram Face sometime between Saturday the 28th and Thursday March 5th.
Day 1 - Silverado:
Day 2 - Tram Face:
All the pieces are in place for this to be an epic event. Silverado has the potential to be a world-class venue for competitive freeskiing with its vast array of monster cliffs, tight chutes, and technical billy goat lines. Not only is Silvy a perfect stage for these athletes to showcase their skills, but it’s also a great venue for the spectators. The knolls above the cat track beneath the mighty China Wall will prove to be a spectacular viewing zone that will play host to hundreds of GNAR-crazed fans.
A storm is expected this weekend that could lay up to 3 feet of fresh snow on the mountains of Tahoe… If that happens and the event proceeds onto the legendary Tram Face, get ready for Squaw Valley to GO OFF!!!
