Beech Mountain Opening Weekend Features Rail Jam
Beech Mountain’s season will finally kick off Friday, December 5, 2025, and what better way to welcome the season than by hosting a rail jam?
Answer: by getting Red Bull involved.
Recess, the local shop in Boone, and Beech have teamed up to host the first rail jam of the season on December 7, 2025. The Beech Park Crew will build a course, and the riders’ overall impressions will help them reach the podium.
Red Bull will be on hand giving away $500 each to the male and female rider who stomps the best trick of the day.
The event is open to snowboarders only. A season pass or valid lift ticket is required to ride in the contest. Entry is $15, and helmets are required to compete. Here are the categories:
-Men's Beginner Snowboard
-Men's Intermediate Snowboard
-Men's Advanced Snowboard
-Women's Snowboard Open.
The event is sponsored by Recess, Capita, Union Binding Company, 686, Dragon, Crab Grab, and Skullcandy, and there will be prizes from all of these companies.
