EIGHT MAMMOTH MOUNTAIN LOCALS TO COMPETE IN QUIKSILVER CLUCK OFF INVITATIONAL SUPERPIPE EVENT
While the all-girls slopestyle and superpipe competition known as the Roxy Chicken Jam is taking place March 27-29 at Mammoth Mountain Resort in California, Quiksilver has decided to have a competition of its own, just for the men – called the Quiksilver Cluck Off. The invitation-only half pipe competition will take place Saturday, March 28 at 4:00pm at the Mammoth Mountain Superpipe.
Eight Mammoth Mountain locals are set to compete in a half-hour half pipe jam session. The competing locals include Greg Bretz, Trevor Jacob, Luke Wynen, Spencer Whiting and Garrett Wynert from the Mammoth Junior team, Patrick Reddy, Tommy Czeshin and eight-year old Judd Henkes. The half pipe competition will be judged by snowboarding Olympians – Quiksilver’s Todd Richards and Roxy’s Torah Bright, as well as Mammoth Mountain’s Oren Tanzer. First place prize is a whopping $1,000; winner takes all.
“The Quiksilver Cluck Off is amazing because as soon as you say cluck instead of the four-letter word it rhymes with, you realize it’s totally cool to have it on a t-shirt in huge letters”, says head judge Todd Richards.
The Roxy Chicken Jam is a three-day professional snowboard contest and festival. The festival includes a free concert with Cold War Kids and Santogold on Saturday evening in the Mammoth Mountain Village.
