Snowbasin is once again the host of the Winter Dew Tour Toyota Championships, which is celebrating its third year at the northern Utah ski resort. The event features snowboard and freeski slopestyle and superpipe athletes from around the world competing for the top prize, the coveted Dew Cup which is awarded to champions in each of the eight disciplines.
The Dew Tour at Snowbasin is more than just watching your favorite pro athlete rip up the slopes and terrain parks. There’s also a big party happening in Ogden, where the “festival village” will light up every night with family-friendly games, athlete autograph signings, giveaways, and a live concert on Ogden’s Historic 25th Street. It all happens from Thursday, February 9 through Sunday, February 12. For a sense of what to expect when you go to watch these skiers and snowboarders fly through the air doing massively complex tricks, check out this highlight video of the men’s Ski Slopestyle from last year:
