Red Bull Project X
01.29.10 | By Guido
"The private pipe is the first of its kind and was created in collaboration with one of White's principal sponsors, Red Bull. Located in secluded Silverton, Colo., White's half-pipe is tucked away where only a snowmobile or helicopter can reach. According to Red Bull, it's "the perfect spot to keep Shaun's work under wraps." It took two months, 30 shipments of helicopter-delivered snow and 8,000 pounds of welded steel to build the world's first on-mountain snowboarding pit, which allows White to perfect his never-been-done-before tricks safely before trying them in competition. Dubbed "Project X," the half-pipe was kept a secret until completion."
We're having a viewing party for this project tomorrow in the boulder PARK lodge at 2pm. it will be broadcast on NBC
