Northstar-At-Tahoe™ Resort Introduces The First Of Its 2006-07 Signature Terrain Features
Nike 6.0 Seagle Feature First Signature Terrain Park Feature to Debut This Season
Trukee, Calif. – Known as a resort that consistently works to progress its terrain park offerings, Northstar-at-Tahoe Resort is introducing a new innovative signature terrain park feature this season. As a result of the collaboration between Northstar™ Resort’s expert park and pipe design team, Snow Park Technologies, and companies that have been selected as Northstar Resort’s signature sponsors, skiers and riders now have access to even more unique features they can jib.
The first signature feature to join Northstar Resort's award-winning terrain parks this season is the Seagle Car by Nike 6.0, the action sports division of Nike supporting action sports athletes and the sports they play including wake, BMX, skate, surf, moto and snow. The Seagle is two vintage AMC Eagles slashed, mashed and reincarnated into the ultimate action sports vehicle.
Nike 6.0’s new feature is located in the terrain park on Pinball, off of the Vista Express chairlift. It is an 18-foot by 4.5-foot box feature that is a replica of The Seagle car Nike 6.0 is touring this winter. There are three entrances to the feature – two side take-offs and a front take-off that riders can ollie off and air to the roof or the back of the feature. All angles of the Seagle car can be jibbed, making this a unique addition to Northstar Resort’s terrain parks.
Signature features that are already part of Northstar Resort’s terrain parks include the Matix three option stair feature, DC Shoebox and Dragon Octagon Box.
Northstar Resort’s terrain parks were ranked fourth in North America by TransWorld SNOWboarding magazine in its 2007 Resort Guide. As an official SPT Park, Northstar Resort is part of Snow Park Technologies, a recognized leader in terrain park development and course/terrain designers for the ESPN Winter X Games, Vans Tahoe Cup, DC Mtn Lab and US Open of Snowboarding.
