Smuggs - No Bull (Video) Snow Report - February 13, 2010 The Gravity Control event series, hosted by Team Smuggs, highlights the best of our terrain parks. Last Saturday, Smuggs hosted the Gravity Control Slopestyle Event in The Zone. A handful of talented local athletes hucked, tucked and wish-fulfilled their way over a myriad of big air elements. Never the type to stay in one place too long, Nathan then takes to some of Smuggs signature glades in his quest for the elusive epic powder stash. With the potential for some serious Winter weather on the way, he won't have to look too hard much longer. Special thanks to Underhill resident and Smuggs Season Pass holder Nathan Steinbauer for this submission.

Steez Magazine's "Big Steezy" Big Air Competition On January 16, 2010 Smuggs officially kicked off the Zone Terrain Park's opening by hosting the Big Steezy, a big air event co-sponsored by Steez Magazine. According to organizer Rick Witham, everyone had a blast and the tricks were BIG! Special thanks to Underhill resident and Smuggs Season Pass holder Nathan Steinbauer for capturing the event on this video.

The Zone was in great shape with four rails and five hits for the Big Steezy. Steez Magazine editor Andrew Bablo said, "The event went great. The park was awesome and I think all the kids were super stoked about it. We've been getting a lot of good feedback. We look forward to building next year's event and making it even bigger and better."

Taking first place in the pro skier division was Peter E., who landed a clean switch 10 along with several big spins. Taking first place in the pro rider division was Ryan B., whose stellar runs were made up of back-side rodeos and stylish 7s.
