Salomon Jib Academy @ SilverStar Mountain!The Salomon Jib academy went off at Silverstar last weekend with a huge # of competitors, a schwack ton of prizing, and day in the park that definetly won't be forgotten. Salomon had their full demo fleet out with next years goods, a few pro guest appearances, and a DJ spinning club bangers all day. SilverStar's Noah Morrison took home the gold, slaying the park all day, and taking all the jumps to the very bottom of the tranny. Off to Mammoth Mtn. Cali for the Jib Academy finals for him! With great park conditions in the morning, everyone was throwing down. As the afternoon Park BBQ lined up, mother nature had other plans for the weather. It started puking snow for the rest of the day, but didn't seem to change any of the athletes outlooks on the session.
