Skullcandy dB PRESENTS: the 5th SO-GNAR Mighty Midwest Snowboard Camp Tour

MIGHTY MIDWEST TOUR DESCRIPTIONThe SO-GNAR Mighty Midwest Snowboard Camp Tour is a series of 2-day snowboard camps coming to a town near you.  Unlike traditional snowboard camps that require you to fork out an unholy amount of dough and travel to some unfamiliar far-away resort, the SO-GNAR Mighty Midwest Snowboard Camp Tour brings the fun, progression, and pro-rider coaching to your local shred spot.  With 12 stops across the Midwest, Colorado, California, Washington and our first-ever camp in Japan, this year's Tour is bound to be the best ever.


MIGHTY MIDWEST TOUR HISTORYThe SO-GNAR Mighty Midwest Snowboard Camp Tour was started 5 years ago by pro-snowboarder and Midwest native, Pat Milbery.  Pat's original goal was to give back to his hometown community in Minnesota by making traditional, expensive, distant snowboard camps available to local kids who didn't have the financial means or resources to attend.  This marks Pat's 5th year putting on the SO-GNAR Mighty Midwest Snowboard Camp Tour and the first time that he is able to expand his original goal to include stop, not just in the Midwest region, but also in Colorado, California, Washington and Japan.  Pat hopes to continue the growth of the SO-GNAR Mighty Midwest Snowboard Camp Tour year after year to include camps all across the globe.


NEW CAMP ADDITION: 4 Custom-made Jib FeaturesWe are taking 4 brand new custom-made jib features on Tour with us this year.  These features will be showcased on-hill for camper use at every camp in the US.  The features will also be used in urban settings for video and photo opportunities.

  1. Custom So-Gnar Sub Jib Feature
  2. Custom Skullcandy Pipe Jib Feature
  3. Custom Zumiez Couch Jib Feature
  4. Custom Capix Helmet Jib Feature


RED BULL BUTTER CUP DESCRIPTIONFive of the Red Bull Butter Cup events will be held in conjunction with SO-GNAR Mighty Midwest Snowboard Camps (on the 2nd day of each camp) and our campers will have exclusive early registration opportunities.  The Red Bull Butter Cup is a contest series that showcases creativity in technical flatland trickery.  It's all about going back to the basics of what made us all fall in love with shredding in the first place: FUN!  Style and creativity is the name of the game and the competition is hot so the cream will rise to the top.
