Ellis Brigham and Line Present • THE AFTERBANG JAM • Saturday 20th June 2009, 7PM • SNO!zone, Milton Keynes Xscape

To celebrate the upcoming release of the new Line ‘Afterbang’ ski, the good people at Line Skis and Ellis Brigham have got together to organise an end of season slope style jam in Milton Keynes. The Sno-Zone will play host to the event giving riders the chance to show off what they have learnt in the winter. The competition is open to all standards and the judges will be looking for people pushing their own limits and will give amateurs the chance to test themselves against the pros. Be prepared for a heavy mix of rails, jibs and jumps that will test all standards of rider and we will be offering something for all levels to play on.

The new Afterbang ski offers a revolution in the design of freestyle skis and is built to try to cope with the heavy impacts that come with this style of skiing. The ski will be released into the market for the 2009/10 season so we are going to give you a sneak preview of what is to come. After four long years of research Line took design elements from skateboard construction to design a ski that will withstand as many grinds, slams and presses as possible. The ski is built using seven different lengths of wood laminated together to create a unique flex pattern that when combined with a symmetric flex and centre mount will give the ultimate in freestyle performance. Best of all a pair these will be available to win at the competition, but we just don’t want to give these to some pro who gets free skis anyway. We want to give them to an up and coming skier who can impress the judges and show they deserve to shred a pair of these next season.

Brought to you by the same people behind the massively popular ‘Refrigerator Open’ the Afterbang Jam is bound to be a night to remember. So come to Milton Keynes Sno-Zone on Saturday 20th June at 7pm and join Line, Ellis Brigham, Sno-Zone, K2 Skis, Volkl Skis, Marker and Full Tilt for a peak in the freestyle of 2010.
