YMIR WIGGLE

YMIR WIGGLE
April 6, 2024
THE SUN IS SHINING, THE VIBES ARE HIGH, AND WE WANT TO CELEBRATE ANOTHER EPIC SEASON AT WHITEWATER WITH THE YMIR WIGGLE!
Snowboarders of all ages and riding levels are welcome to throw down and hoedown at the first-ever Ymir Wiggle – an ode to duels of the past!
Riders will race against the clock in this dual banked slalom on Sluice Box down to the Day Lodge. Brackets include Groms (13 & Under), Teens (14-18), Womxn’s Open, & Men’s Open with competitors facing off in pairs in an elimination-style competition. Those who advance will continue to shred against competitors until only one rider reins supreme.
Western attire is highly suggested and there will be some amazing prizing provided by Burton, Baldface Valhalla, & Tribute Boardshop. Plus, we’ll après ‘til the sun goes down with DJ Pete Shredz & DJ Rowly, and then we’ll wrap it all up with our Closing Weekend Party at Mike’s Place Pub where we’ll be rocking our best Canadian tuxedos.
So, come join us on Closing Weekend up at the hill to celebrate local snowboard culture & end this season doing the Ymir Wiggle!
Helmets are mandatory.
