Class is now in session kids. The Copper Mountain Superpipe will be ruled daily by the US Snowboard Team–and exclusively for that matter–as the team will have uninhibited access from 8:30 - 10:00 a.m. on weekends and 9:00 - 11:00 a.m. on weekdays. The rest of us can witness the team from the sidelines during the early morning sessions, then drop in and catch air (or an edge) once they open the 22 foot behemoth to the public thereafter.
Maybe the earliest-season Superpipe ever, the Copper Mountain monster will be showcased on December 10-12 during the USSA Snowboard Grand Prix when the world’s top riders will be competing for spots on their Olympic teams. Show up at Copper and join the circus (you might catch a glimpse of the red-haired one) from Thursday to Saturday, or just laze around and see the carnage on the boob tube on Sunday, December 13 on NBC at 2:00 p.m. Eastern.
