Steel and Sky Rails

An event for both men, and women, this signature event has long attracted some of the best riders on the planet.

A super technical "skateboard park on snow" inspired design keeps the riders on their toes. Each year the set-up is completely different, pushing the progression of snowboarding with features unique to the Session. Bowls, huge rails on steroids, quarter pipes, step-ups and more have all made appearances in the Steel & Sky Rails course.

Every 15 minutes the fireball lights up the sky and we cut a check. The riders with the most money after the 1 hour session take the podium. The open format allows multiple riders, with different lines to all hit the course at the same time.

“The creativity of Planet Snow Design on designing the course is amazing, this year there is a new design for the jumps and rail course that will test the riders like never before!”
-- Greg Johnson, Competition Director
