Snowboarding to me is as natural as a heartbeat. It is my way of living and dealing with my emotions. The feeling of being in the air, the feeling of riding over the snow, the feeling of the wind on your body. There is nothing quite like snowboarding...

With a winter snow warning in effect for early Sunday morning, slow road conditions and a new host mountain it was shaping up to be a good day for the Ontario stop of the Rome Premature Jibulation. The temperature dropped considerably just as the contest started and the snow began to fall again, causing blizzard conditions for part of the day. Nonetheless, 95 local shreds showed up to slide and jib around in hopes of winning some spanking new Rome goods.
Our very own LNP and Eiki Helgason have both landed on Transworld Snowboarding's top ten tricks of 2008 list. LNP grabbed the number 5 spot with his nosepress through a triple kink, and Eiki followed him up in the number 6 spot with his backside 180 through the big gold kink in Michigan. You can check it out HERE Congrats guys!
Ullar is said to be the god of snow. So the legend goes, if you pray to this white bearded, Viking helmet wearing, Scandinavian behemoth, abundant snowfall will follow. Someone must have sacrificed a snowler-blader in the name of Ullars the day before the 5th annual Rome Premature Jibulation event was held at Mount Seymour on their opening day. Snow rang in as the clear winner showing up 54cm deep, giving the talented and hardworking park crew more then enough of the white stuff to set up one of the best jib parks we’ve seen at this event.
Rome SDS will be holding it’s final weekend of Premature Jibulations this weekend on December 20th at Skibowl in OR and on December 21st over at Glen Eden in Milton, ON. It’s been a great Pre Jib season so far, and this weekend should be more good times, so if you’re in the area, make the drive over and enjoy some hot dogs, product toss and a chance to win a new Rome board, bindings and jacket.
The Seven Springs Rome Premature Jibulation didn’t end up being premature in the end since, it was Opening Weekend! There was mid-winter like conditions and more park features than November shredding in Western PA has ever seen. Anytime you get hundreds of riders, a great park, music, free hot dogs, prizes, and place it all as close to a bar as possible, it’s pretty hard not to have a good time.
Unfortunately due to the ice storm that left 350,000 people without power in Massachusetts, Premature Jibulation will have to be cancelled at Nashoba Valley this season. Nashoba is in the process of working their ass off to get the mountain going again and clear fallen trees from the lift lines so everyone can get their shred on again.
