One obvious name missing is last years women’s champ Grete Eliassen, where is Grete?
Red Bull is embracing Silverton’s mining history for this year’s Cold Rush, integrating mining themes in with the slopestyle course this year. There is a jump built with a mining tunnel in the back of it and a railroad track rail feature, should be sweet…
Original Post – 2/23/12
The 2012 Red Bull Cold Rush is returning to Silverton, CO from March 5th-8th. NBC will be broadcasting the Cold Rush on March 24th at 1pm ET as part of their new Signature Series. This year’s event should be amazing with Silverton having a great season with a ton of snow and a 73″ base so far.
Last year’s winners Sean Pettit and Grete Eliassen will be back to defend their titles, along with a still unannounced invitee list of elite freeskiers.
Who do you want to see compete in this year’s Cold Rush? Can anyone take down Sean and Grete?
