The North Face Park and Pipe Open Series

Founded: 2010

A three-stop tour featuring ski slopestyle and halfpipe competitions with $60,000 in total prize money up for grabs.

The North Face Park and Pipe Open Series will dedicate one competition day to halfpipe and two days to slopestyle. Judging is based on overall impression, including content, difficulty of run, style and use of park or pipe.

The competition at Blue Mountain Resort is the last event that will count towards getting an invite to the 2012 Winter X Games. The North Face Park and Pipe Open Series will work in conjunction with the Association of Freeskiing Professionals (AFP) on competition judging, with AFP General Manager and X Games competitor Steele Spence serving as head judge for the series.
