Oregon Splitfest - 3.9.13

The group takes a break for skinning, and enjoys the sunshine.
Perfect weather!
The second annual Oregon Splitfest is in the books. We had sunny weather (on Saturday), stable snow, and lots of great people, parties, and prizes. Much thanks to Jones Snowboards, Karakoram BindingsArbor Snowboards, US Outdoor Store, and Next Adventure for coming out, demoing gear, and giving away product in the raffle. Of course, a big shout out to Geoff Guillory for putting the whole thing together, and NWAC for presenting. You really should have been there! Don't miss it next year. That's all I've got; just eye candy from here on out.

Jones Rep Matt Baker carves a big turn on his Solution splitboard.
Jones Rep, and all around awesome guy, Matt Baker laying it on edge. The snow wasn't the best, but it was fast and carvable. Matt was demo'ing Jones boards with Karakoram bindings to lucky splitters all weekend long.
